Yesterday Joel's friend Heather sent me a thank you e-mail in response to my telling Joel that I'd be happy to look at her ailing laptop. She's going to drop it off—that works out fine with me. Lunch with Joel at You See Sushi. Worked on webdev and started fixing stylesheets so that tables weren't broken in Mozilla 1.x. Mozilla and DOCTYPEs—frustrating! Grr! to all the Mozilla developers! Grr! Grr! Grr! GRR! After work, Patrick and I drove to Mountain View to go to my nephew's 3th birthday party. As a gift, we got him Cranky the Crane (wrapped in Thomas the Train gift wrapping paper). Cranky is part of the Thomas the Train set of toys, and that's what Jeremy loves along with fire trucks. We met Lani and Rob's friends Ken and Kalina and their sons Daniel and Joshua. We also met Lani and Rob's neighbor Shawn and Shawn's daughter Gracie. We also met Lindsay and Drew. We ate a big dinner, late, having arrived at about 7:00 PM. They had too much food, so it all worked out. We had vegetable soup with chunks of meat, green salad with garlic dressing, hand-rolled pepperoni and mushroom pizza made with Trader Joe's one-dollar pizza dough, garlic bread (which we brought) made with pugliese from Grace's Bakery, and mint chocolate cake with white chocolate frosting and shavings. We didn't have room for spaghetti and meatballs, so we took it home with us along with a bunch of veggies and other leftovers. Jeremy likes his Cranky the Crane, so we're happy.
