1. I stayed home today. The corgis were at peace all day, doing little more than rising up from the prone position only to find a different place -- the living room rug, the queen bed, the love seat, or their crate -- to resume lying down. I listened to a variety of news podcasts, continuing to learn more about the multiple things going on this week with Facebook, Syria, and other complex stories.
2. I also retreated back in time to the 1930s and 1940s in New York City by returning to more profiles by Joseph Mitchell. I learned about gypsy life in NYC at that time, a man on a mission to eradicate the world of profanity, another man who tramped across the United States and wrote checks for as much as 25,000 dollars to people who poured him a cup of coffee or fixed him some food, and the Union League of the Deaf.
3. Finally, at about 7:30 p.m., I left the house and paid Christy and Everett a visit. We yakked for a while about Christy's trip to CdA today, my road trip yesterday, our upcoming house remodeling projects, and other things. It was a relaxing way to bring a very quiet and relaxing day to a close.
