Yesterday I had lunch with Julian, Beech, and Annie at the Oasis. It is the first time I have been to the Oasis in many years. In the evening Joshua came over with burgers and fries and watched the hockey game with me. The Sharks beat Detroit in overtime. It was another hard-fought game. I feel good today.

Yesterday I drove my car for the first time in over two weeks. I had to go to the local shopping center to pick up my laundry, get some cash from Wells Fargo, and pick up a refill for my Prozac prescription. I managed it just fine, but I am glad I don’t have to do it often. After the Friday PBS shows were over last night I read some more on my Kindle, then, after the local news, I watched Charlie Rose and turned in. I feel good today.

Yesterday morning I watched a Netflix DVD named “Hugo.” It was a fairy tale for children set in the Paris railway station between world wars 1 and 2. It may have been OK for children, but I could not suspend disbelief. I give it 2 stars. Last night I watched the Sharks beat Nashville 2-1 in an overtime shootout. Nashville scored in the first period, then Joe Thornton tied it in the third period. Ryan Clowe scored the winning shootout goal. Josh was at the game, so I am sure he was pleased. I feel good today.

Yesterday I napped in the afternoon after The News Hour was finished on PBS at 4 PM. In the evening I then read on my Kindle until the 10- o’clock News. I turned in after watching Charlie Rose. I saw on the news that the Warriors lost to Boston, so I was just as glad I had not watched them. I feel good today. I decided not to RE-FI my mortgage. It turned out I could only save half a point on my interest rate.

Yesterday Josh brought in pizza and watched the hockey game with me. The Sharks lost 2-3 in overtime to the Calgary Flames. The Sharks scored the first goal, but then fell behind and caught up in the third period, but they could not put the game away. At least they got one point out of it. They are now in a three-way tie for the last play-off spot. I feel good today.

Yesterday afternoon before the hockey game started, I watched a Netflix DVD called Sometimes in April. It was about the killings in Rwanda a few years ago. It was a docu-drama that showed what a horrible experience it was for both sides of the fighting, so it was not fun to watch. I give it three stars. After the movie, Josh came over and brought in fish and chips and watched the hockey game with me. It was hard-fought like all the recent games, but this time the Sharks were able to beat the Edmonton Oilers 3-2. I got a proposal in the mail yesterday to refinance my mortgage, so I am considering it. I feel good today.

Yesterday I watched the Golden State Warriors beat the LA Clippers in NBA basketball. The Warriors played well again, so it was fun to watch them beat another good team for the second night in a row. Afterward it was another fundraising night on PBS, so I watched the final disk of Freaks and Geeks. The series ended with the Grateful Dead’s American Beauty album being featured as part of the story, which ends with the main characters hitting the road following the Dead in a van with Dead stickers to the sound of Ripple playing. This entire week will be nothing but PBS fundraisers, so I should be able to watch Charlie Rose at 8 PM and get adjusted to Daylight Savings Time. I feel good today.
