I woke up this morning with a little bit of upper back pain but after some aceto and some time on the heating pad it seems to have mostly gone away. Patrick got home from practice and took a nap. I ate breakfast, installed the two shelves we bought yesterday, mounted a power strip on the wall next to the refrigerator, shredded paperwork that was no longer needed, finished my taxes. (I lost.) Lunch at home with Patrick: turkey burgers. Patrick wrote most of today. He also helped me find our ink jet cartridges which were filed in the office supplies box rather than our usual spot. I changed ink in the printer, chatted with Tina, made some purchases online, installed a small halogen light over the sink so Patrick wouldn't have a shadow fall on the dishes while he washes them. Phil and Drew invited us over for dinner, which was excellent: breaded talapia filets with Thai rice, and dish #2 was Mongolian salad with flank steak. At Drew's request, we brought with us a dvd rental: Wallace and Gromit and the Curse of the Were-Rabbit, which they hadn't seen but seemed to enjoy. I loved seeing it again, and we enjoyed spending time with them.
