5.178 Memorial day

Monday 05/27/2024

Didn’t do much but kept busy somehow. Practicing music and stuff. At lunch we had a big deal barbecue, cooked and served outside the dining room. Ribs were pretty decent.

In the afternoon I spent a couple of hours chatting with Google Gemini. I’m using it to bounce ideas off for my stalled novel. It’s a good listener, and it reads with comprehension. By which I mean, I fed it the first chapter and it commented in a very sensible way on the contents, the good and bad points, etc.

Like most big holidays, Dining Services gets the evening off, supplying picnic bags to those who want them. The 6th floor rebelled and voted to get in Thai food. I was commissioned to order from Indochine, the little Thai place in Midtown. Leon and I went down to pick up all the food at 5pm. About 15 of us crowded into our floor dining room for this. Everybody liked the food.
