Improve

Hi,
Well, I survived a day without internet. Ugh. I'm was so happy to open my inbox and see that quite a few of you knew the song. I'm sure more of you know, but just aren't playing. Oh well. Here's more, and you need no clues:
__, You don't have to wear that dress tonight Walk the streets of money You don't care if it's wrong or if it's right
__, You don't have to put on the red light (repeat)
Things are getting even more hectic as we live through the last days of our visit. Lunch here, dinner there, meeting here, coffee there. My mother commented that we'll need a vacation when we get back home.
Yesterday, Lisa had lunch with one of her assistants from the institute and made the rounds at her former job. I made the rounds at Best Buy and exercised great restraint.
This morning we leave the house at 7am (oh) for LAX. We're going up north to visit Joe (Lisa's Dad) and the Oakland Cousins (Eunice, James and Trudye) We're also going to Cupertino, and visit Apple 'mecca' to meet with our friend Bill and pick up Lisa's new laptop. (finally converted her, [5]). It's going to be a whirlwind trip since we return Wednesday evening.
We've retrieved most of the things that friends had been keeping for us and now it's another round of 'decide what to take'. Oh, the pain of it all. Actually, it's not so bad. I've sorted through and acted rather adult about a few things, choosing to either give them away or throw them out. What courage.
I'll write to you tomorrow from our San Jose hotel. (made sure they have WiFi) I dream of the day when the whole world has free WiFi. As a matter of fact, there's work under way in Thailand to provide the internet through the power lines, so all one would have to do is plug into the wall. Hmm, I heard it mentioned here a few years ago, but where's the profit in that? We'll see if they can actually get it to work.
Well, it's almost flight time. Have another Great Day.

Peace,
Danny
