Some from column A, some from column B


I had a great time with my cousin today. I met her at her grandma's house in San Leandro and gave grandma a bunch of quilting fabric from my grandma's stash. Cuz and I went to the city and explored Union Square. The kitties at Macy's are my favorite this time of year. We had lunch in the atrium at the Palace Hotel - yum! We met [livejournal.com profile] moriven at home and we all went out to dinner at Massimo's here in Fremont. Good times!

Unfortunately, when she and I got back to the SL BART station my truck had been broken into. The window was smashed and the stereo and the bezel (that plastic part of the dash that the stereo sits in) were stolen. The rat bastard. Somewhat fortunately, a BART police officer noticed and left his card with the report number on my seat. So, tomorrow I get to deal with my insurance agent. :p

Also, apparently the sewage pipe that has leaked sporadically the past three winters in our garage has finally broken its fitting, so our landlord should be coming over tomorrow to fix that. (We had long learned not to leave anything we liked in that corner of the garage, so no losses there.) Tomorrow is not shaping up into the finish-shopping day that I had intended.

Car break-in really sucks. Gad. "Rat bastard" indeed.

I love the atrium at the Palace Hotel - it's old world beautiful :-)
I'm sorry about your truck though. Hopefully with the insurence you will get a better stereo out of it?? (one can always hope)

Love that you're still remembering all the Column A goodness...it's so easy just to see Column B (really sorry about the truck...fingers crossed for you). Will hope to hear that all is resolved when we next get to see you.
