Finished the latest Thomas Steinbeck book, In the Shadow of the Cypress. I could not put it down. The ending shifts to the current times and layers in many of today's technologies. The tech helps solve the many mysteries that surround the action of the story. I look forward to his next work and I hope it's on its way.

I did the neighborhood loop today--after eating my way through the morning and early afternoon, napping for a while, and then stumbling my way around the loop. Will head out to yoga class tomorrow and Pilates on Thursday.

When I was eating lunch, my nose started to bleed. Perhaps it was the horseradish that came with the meal (corned beef and cabbage). It didn't bleed a lot--just a few drops. But, it surprised me! I haven't had a spontaneous nosebleed for as long as I can imagine.

Been quiet on the new phone front today. I figured out that I can read and send email from my mail account over the phone. In fact, I'm starting to realize that if I choose to do so, I could do nearly everything I do on my computer on my phone. Just have to get used to the smaller real estate. I noticed that after using the phone my computer screen feels really big. Strange worlds of perception!

Watched a new CBS show, Intelligence, about what happens when a high bandwidth chip is embedded in a human. The person with the chip becomes an instant Google-brain and can find, manipulate, and process huge volumes of data, in all forms. It's an updated version of the $6 MM man--except he's now the $60 billion man! Oh, yeah!
