I made a spur-of-the-moment decision to drive over to the park at 6:30 AM, given the possibility of another epic sunrise. It was stunning but not anywhere near yesterday's. Yet it beats sleeping in and missing it. The coffee today, another of the samples, may be a new favorite. I will be watching for consistency in the outcome and order mere. Valerie came to visit Jen. I took Tommy to pick up his car, which, it turns out, was not ready. He got a loaner. I finished and mailed the Jikoji welfare exemption papers, and reworked the group and visitor pages. Check front can really be frustrating at times. My mom had more issues with making calls, and I dropped my stoic outlook and beat myself up again over this fiasco. I ended up buying a simple flip-phone that should hopefully reduce both of our frustrations. I'll pick it up tomorrow and set it up before handing it off. The first 30 minutes of the latest documentary on Mel Brooks were enjoyable.
