Not Friday
Nov. 8th, 2012 10:47 amIt's Thursday. Even early in the day, I've had to remind myself several times. For some reason, I just keep skipping Thursdays in my mind.
Today's headline items are swim class at noon and possibly <a href="http://www.artswest.org/gallery/" an art gallery reception. That's all on the docket. There will be knitting, reading and TV watching. I have an errand at Pike Place Market but I think that's going to be tomorrow. I'm not feeling it today. --- I've had my current phone about 6 months now. It's been updated a few times and one annoying thing keeps getting worse and worse. It's nice little auto rotating feature often loses it's mind. I point the camera and shoot a picture and the picture comes out upside down. Often the GPS map plots my course upside down. Sometimes I can't get a horizontal view at all. I've worn out Google looking for a solution using all manner of search terms with no luck. Until yesterday. I found an isolated reference that said 'make sure you do your calibration with the phone on its back, not on it's side'. ??!!! Really??? I've calibrated my phone a million times but always on its side - never dawned on me to put it on its back. I have a Thing Sling on the back of my phone to help me hold it so it doesn't lie very flat on its back. But I gave it a go anyway and BAM! It worked. It fixed every single problem. wow. happy camper here.

Christmas Day Best Plan Ever
Nov. 8th, 2012 04:02 pmThe Seattle International Film Festival has two theaters and shows all kinds of stuff all year round. Last night ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
machupicchu and I saw a preview showing of Silver Linings Playbook at one of them. Before the movie tey showed a slideshow of upcoming events and one really caught my eye...
Christmas Day - 1 pm - a sing along showing of Fiddler on the Roof compete with a Chinese food buffet during intermission.
Cracked Me Up. So much so that I might just go!
Whoever dreamed that up should get Event Planner Of The Year.

I just got a call from the dishwasher repair place - my guy will be here between 8 and 10 which suits me perfectly. Tomorrow morning I can also check their website and see what other appointments he has before me if any so I can narrow it down even further. Of course, having the first block of time of the day makes this 'track your tech' feature a little less needed but I love it nonetheless.

Swim class was great today - it was my class with all my buds and I hadn't been there in a while. The lead organizer - Madeline - said, when I walked in "if you didn't show up today, I was going to call to make sure you were alive!"
It was fun to see everyone and Kyle the teacher, was totally on his game today. Good session all around.
