Yesterday I ordered a new book for my Kindle. It was the last book of the Cave Bear series. It has been a long time since I read the previous one, so I am glad to be able to finish the series. Last night I watched the Sharks play the first game of their Stanley Cup series with the Detroit Redwings. Detroit scored in the first period, and neither team scored in the second period. Joe Pavelski tied the game in the third period and sent the game into overtime. A rookie who had just been brought up from the farm team then scored in overtime to win the game for the Sharks. It was their fourth overtime win in the playoffs this year. Josh called me after the game. He was at the game with Kermit, and was very happy with the result. He said he would come over and watch tomorrow’s game with me at noon tomorrow. I had a good sleep last night and feel good today.

I thought I had an appointment with my family doctor today, but for some reason I did not, so I made one for a week from today. I originally had one with my urologist today, but his nurse called and changed it to next Monday (2 May). Last night I watched a DVD of the movie How Do You Know. It had a good cast, but the premise was so lame I thought it was silly. I give it 2.7 stars. I am feeling good again today.

Yesterday I took a shower and did laundry. I also did my week’s shopping at Safeway. In the late afternoon I had dinner at El Cerrito with Larry and Judi. In the evening I watched a Netflix DVD of the movie Tron: Legacy. It was OK, but I was not too impressed by it, so I give it only 2.7 stars. I have heard on TV that the Sharks will play Detroit tomorrow (Friday). If Josh does not get tickets for the game, he will probably come watch with me. I feel good today.

Yesterday I read Science and watched PBS shows on TV. In the Evening I watched a DVD of the movie Never Let Me Go. It was a science fiction based on a book by a Japanese writer. It was about raising children in a school so they could be used as organ donors. I thought it was too implausible to suspend disbelief. I give it 2.8 stars. I feel good again today.

Joshua brought in pizza and watched the Sharks game with me. The Sharks never trailed, but every time the Kings tied the score Josh would go crazy. I was afraid the neighbors would complain. It all turned out well. Joe Thornton scored the winning goal in overtime, so the Sharks won the series 4-2 and will move on to the next round. Three of the Sharks victories came in overtime. I had a good sleep last night, so I feel good again today.

Yesterday I drove to San Mateo to have Easter brunch. Vanessa’s brother was there with his two kids (his wife was home sick) and Maureen was there with Gary. I was able to pass on a three months supply of The Economist to Maureen. The kids had a great time hunting Easter eggs and Julian and Vanessa had prepared great food. It was the first time I had driven that far, but the traffic was light and I had no trouble. In the late afternoon Jason picked me up and drove me to Umbach’s for Easter dinner, so I ate out twice in one day. Jason and his family gave me a ride home in time to watch the new episode of Upstairs Downstairs. I feel good again today.
