First thing, out on foot to an 8am appointment to have my teeth scraped. The dental office was for decades on University, but this spring moved to a new office a whole block further away from me. Anyway, routine thing.
Back in time to tidy the apartment for the cleaning lady who comes at 12. Then started to put together a brief slide show explaining the vintage computer fest, for the FOPAL volunteer zoom coming up tomorrow. Then the writers meeting at 10:45 to 12. And right after, the cleaning lady ringing the doorbell.
After that, I spent some time on the phone with Dennis, and then time on the phone calling the Clipper Card customer service. (For anyone not in this area, the Clipper Card is the access card for all public transit, bus, train.) I had a regular one but Joanne had pointed out that with that, I pay 3x as much as I would if I had a Senior card. So I applied for a senior card and it finally came, but it doesn’t have any money on it; my $50 balance had not moved over. So I spent time on the phone with the nice lady who got that straightened out, hopefully.
Then I did my laundry, interrupting that process to attend the Car Free group meeting at 3pm. Then finished the laundry and had a little time before dinner. Then time to attend the monthly movie, this time it’s Broadcast News from 1987. Report on that tomorrow.
