Tuesday - Rainy in the morning, clear and lovely in the afternoon.

A good day. Last night I wasn’t feeling well, so I went to bed at 1:30am, which is positively early for me! I slept quite well, and even slept in an extra hour this morning. I felt quite good when I got up. I made the bed, showered and then went on-line.

I didn’t watch much TV because there really wasn’t much on today. I also had to leave early, so one episode of CSI and I was out the door. I had brunch first, and it was yummy. I made myself scrambled eggs and bacon. It was very nice. Just what I wanted too.

At school I got the place ready for my first class…my student came and we had a good class. We started talking about sport today, not really my favourite topic, but it was fine.

After her class, I had a break, and then my next class. I was surprised because my student came on time and stayed all class. She doesn’t often do that! We had a good class too. We did follow up questions and then started to talk about restaurant English.

After class, I did some paperwork, had a cup of tea, read the newspaper quickly and then went home. Yes, tonight I rode my bike home. F has been having so much back trouble lately that he asked me not to make him put my bike in the back of the car. It was a lovely clear evening, a little brisk, but nice, so it was good to ride. I actually have always wanted to ride home, but he never wanted me to. I’m enjoying it while it lasts!

I got home and F had barred the door, so I had to ring the doorbell and have him let me in. We greeted each other and a few minutes later we went out for dinner. For a change, I suggested Cocos, and that’s where we went. I had something a little different tonight, a Caesar salad with herb chicken on top. It was really nice. They have it listed as a salad to share, but it was just perfect for my meal. Of course, F and I shared an order of French Fries. Cocos has really good ones, come with barbecue sauce and mayonnaise for dipping too. Yum

We hit the grocery store on the way by for tomorrow’s dinner. Ginger pork, salad, kabocha and probably couscous which I already have.

At home, we vegged for a bit and then I watched 2 episodes of Criminal Minds, the old one, and the new one with Forest Whitaker. I was really surprised to see Janeane Garofalo in that, playing a non comedic role.

When my shows were finished, F took over the TV and started watching one of those Ultimate Fighting things that bores me silly. Don’t get why people want to do things like that to other people.

And that’s about it. It was a good day. I’m feeling much better, although I might just take a cold pill before I go to sleep tonight. If the weather holds tomorrow, I think I’ll go out for a bit. Just feel like I haven’t left the apartment on my own in a while. Not sure though. Got to go. Night!
