I just got back from getting a haircut which was long overdue. Yesterday evening Josh came over and brought Subway sandwiches and watched the hockey game with me. The Sharks lost 1-2 in an overtime shootout to the Calgary Flames. There is another hockey game tonight, but I will miss the start of it because I want to watch Obama’s State of the Union speech. I feel good today.

Yesterday I watched the AFC and NFC football playoffs. I watched the 49ers game in San Mateo with Julian and his family. Both games were close, and of course I was disappointed that the 49ers lost in overtime because of two mistakes by their backup punt returner. Oh well, now I will have more time to return to more important things like resuming work on my memoirs. I feel good today.

Yesterday afternoon Joshua came over and watched the hockey game with me. The Sharks gave up the first goal to Vancouver and then spent the rest of the game playing catch-up. In the end the Sharks lost 3-4. I read a lot more of The Economist, but I did not finish it because Larry and Judi called and asked me to go the a movie with them. We saw “A Dangerous Method” which was about Freud and Jung when they invented the talking cure. It also featured Kierra Knightly as the first talking cure patient. She was good in a demanding role. It was interesting because these were all actual historical characters who communicated a lot by letter, so their lives were well documented. The movie dealt with sex and death and God and all of the important subjects, and so was very interesting. I give it 4 stars. After the movie it was still early enough that I was able to watch disk 1 of the series called Dirt. It was about the editor of a tabloid who makes a point of only publishing true things about the movie stars she sets up for scandalous pictures. If it were a movie, I would give it 2.5 stars. I feel good today.

Yesterday after the usual Friday PBS shows, I watched the last disk of season 1 of The Riches. I also read the new Science and started reading this week’s issue of The Economist. Josh just called and said he has decided not to go skiing today, because of rain in the mountains, so he is coming over to watch hockey and the AFC football playoffs with me this afternoon. I feel good today.

I just got back from having breakfast at the Ariagnos with the Morrills and the Willetts. George and Laurene are in town for a memorial service for George’s brother, and this was the only time we could get together in their tight schedule. It was nice to see them. Last night Josh came over and brought Chinese food and watched the hockey game with me. The Sharks scored the first goal, but then the Ottawa Senators scored the next four goals, so the Sharks lost 1-4. The Ottawa team is really good. I turned in early so I could get up early for the breakfast. I feel good today. I am forwarding all of you the pictures that Marilyn sent me because I thought they were nice.

I just got back from Heidi’s Pies and have started a load of laundry. I had breakfast with Henry. Reggie is in Mexico celebrating an anniversary with his wife. Yesterday I took a shower and read some more on my Kindle. I was glad to hear on the radio on the way home that Perry has dropped out of the race for the Republican nomination and has endorsed Newt. I still think Obama will win in the fall. I feel good today.

Last night Josh came over and brought fish and chips watched the Sharks game with me. They beat Calgary 2-1 in an overtime shootout. They had actually won before the shootout, but the goal was disallowed on a bad call by the ref. I also read quite a bit more on my Kindle. I feel good today.
