Went for the usual walk, this time ending up in our dining room for coffee. Later I sprayed the Golf body with primer. The plastic sheets to finish the spray booth will arrive tomorrow but for primer, I don’t care so much about dust.
Arriving today were another pair of jeans, this time Levi’s 501, the original fit. I didn’t like how they looked, so that’s another pair to take back to the Levi’s store. The issue here is that with my post-operation body I really need a 35-inch waist. Not all Levi’s lines offer 35 waists, and even when they do, they are not usually stocked in stores. So I order online and then find out they look like crap on my bod. I have a pair of jeans from Bonobos that look good on me, the only thing wrong is they are a little bit hard to take off. But you know? That’s not such a problem.
I had lunch in the dining room, new-england style clam chowder (as is Friday tradition) and a slice of pizza that was really, really good. For supper I tried the take-out option. I ordered their burger, to go. I only had to wait a few minutes and they brought out a take-out box with my burger and fries. It was a decent burger and good fries.
The reason I took take-out is that I haver registered for the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament. I’ve wanted to do this for many years, but it was only held in Stamford, CT at a time that usually conflicted with the end of basketball season. This year it’s virtual. Today was the intro, from 5-8pm. It was a lot of history and chit-chat but I didn’t want to miss it; so, take-out.
