Post Tuesday. Sunday continued
The lounge was alright. Nothing really special or to brag about. Watched some foot ball, light banter. Was leaving about 3, early for me, because of my cousin. We'll get there.
The new owner had small meeting in the back. My friend and I joked we liked him better back there. He says another shop is opening and we are so ditching this place. I will have a look. It adds probably another 7 to 10 miles to my trip. In a town I'm not familiar with, and not as close to the highway. So we'll see.
Left shortly after my friend, headed home. Had limited time. I believe I was making meatloaf but not totally sure. You see my cousin and had a phone call planned.
There's something called Facetime, probably only the name is unique to IPhone. It would be akin to the Jetsons. But we'll get to that tomorrow.
-Later.

Still going with Sunday
Got home, want to say I made chicken. The meal cooked is unimportant. I just had a deadline for this Jetsons like Facetime.
If you remember the Jetsons, they communicated often by video screens. Always looked like t.v.'s to me. I remember one episode where Jane was talking to her friend in the morning and her friends morning mask fell off. It was funny as I remember it. Then Jane turned to George after and told him. He yelped and kidded she should put hers on.
I was interested enough to look forward to it. It seems like Skype. Except I'm told its free between IPhone's and such. He'd be using his tablet? Not really sure. Still I realized it left me with a small dilemma.
Since the camera shows you as theirs shows them, where to take the call. Did I really want to show laundry behind me? Things you never have to think about with a phone huh? Anyhow the call went well. He also enlightened me that my text message failure was probably because I didn't include an area code. What was I thinking, older times I guess.
The only minor glitch was that I needed to grab some headphones so I could hear him. Odd I figured. Welcome to the 21st century I guess. It was fun. Will do it again.
The only thing I can recall is that I wished for the longer days again. Where I could go and sit by the water after a Sunday dinner. Ahh Spring and Summer, I long for thee. To dark and desolate to go after dark. Just in case anyone was thinking it.
We're still going ahead with the week. Eventful in some ways. But also it gives me some posts behind me. See what happens.
