Frank, the front desk guy at the gym: Bye! I'll see you on Monday!
Me: Oh! You getting tomorrow off?
Frank: Yep, the whole weekend.
Me: Well, have a great time!
Frank: There will be newbies here tomorrow so... have fun with that.

Ha. My whole swim this morning I was thinking maybe I'll take tomorrow off. Thanks, Frank, decision made. These days, on Saturdays, there is a huge pickup basketball game that gathers before the doors open and every week bitch loudly that they aren't open yet. All we need is newbies, who will likely no even be there on time, in that mix. Plus, there's that Saturday woman who always nearly knocks me over to get in the pool before me. She walks, not swims, in the pool which is fine except she refuses to share her lane. Plus, I have the concert tomorrow afternoon. So... yep, tomorrow's a skip.

I'm finding it easier and easier to skip swims which has me a little worried. This morning, I was not into going at all. Once I hit the water, though, I'm always glad I'm there and this morning was no different in that respect.

I'm still trying to get my prescriptions transferred. Costco has an app that is kinda barebones/barely operational. I have five prescriptions to transfer. One went great. First time. The other four won't go. At the pharmacy, a week or so ago, the tech gave me a business card for the manager if I ran into trouble. I sent an email to the address on the card, explaining the issues and asking for help. The email came back address unknown.

Today I was in the app trying to find some clue when I hit upon an email address that appears to cover both the Costco pharmacy and the app. So I sent my email to it. And...YEAH! I got robot email back with a case number so I feel like I'm at least making progress. I'm still a couple of weeks away from needing to refill so all's cool... so far.

My new Oasis Kindle arrived yesterday. It's actually now the old Oasis since they have announced a new one coming out soon. They dropped the price of the original and I traded up. It's way nicer than my Paperwhite. It's nicer to hold and it has page turning buttons which sounds silly but, in real life, is fabulous.

I spent a long time yesterday cleaning up my Kindle library. And now it's all empty of crud - samples, library books I turned in eons ago, and other junk I don't want/need. Just nicely full of books I want to read.

Because of aforementioned Kindle fiddling, I never did get to the sewing room yesterday but I think I'm going to do that today.

Tonight is dinner and the baseball game.

It's still mercifully cool here and cloudy. I could live with this weather forever.

BUTTONS! You just have persuaded me to buy it too. I so hate the touch thing on the paperwhite, I always mess my place up because I accidentally touch the page.

I just looked it up and they took off only 10 Euro from the original price :( I might wait a bit more, the new one is on the market already but they didn't really push it much yet!

Oh yes! I put it on my list so I automatically get told when the price changes. The wonders of modern technology :D

I don't have a problem with the adults but some of my neighbors' kids are really obnoxious about not sharing space in the pool; they don't seem to get that the pool is supposed to be there for everybody who lives in the apt bldg and not just them.

I love my Oasis, and the buttons were key to that. I had an old Kindle Keyboard that I held onto until the Oasis came out, precisely because I liked using the buttons and not touching the screen. Glad you're enjoying your new one. :)

Uuugh to people who won't share lanes. Or exercise spaces in general. And who are rude enough to rush around people like that!

Maybe swimming for you is taking a backseat for a reason, though? I'm not sure what it would be, but you don't strike me as the lazy type AT ALL. I just don't see it as slacking off for you.
