After a three mile walk chilly walk and a short bus ride home – I stopped off at the asylum Bistro for lunch. Before I even went upstairs. Got the “special” salad. It was very good.
I don’t usually do salad dressing, and I never do orange dressing. Reminds me of what was called “French” dressing back in the day. And, it surely was reason enough for the French to consider us uncivilized barbarians.
A windy, chilly, day and I am watching turkey buzzards circling around. Not cool having buzzards circling the asylum!
Walked from the hospital to the lawyer’s office. Then continued on to 7 Corners. Where I checked out Danskos. They didn’t have any. Then, I ran to catch a bus to the asylum. Would have missed the bus – except – there was construction. So, I was able to get ahead of the bus.
Interesting. For many years, I lived 2 blocks from that shopping center. And, I am sure that I always drove to the shopping center. I was SO suburban then. In 2002, the Beltway Sniper took down #12 at our shopping center.

Those were really grim days for me. Mom had just been diagnosed with terminal cancer. Carlton didn’t seem to care very much. People were being shot at random. Carlton did care about that either. He said I was getting all worked up about things I couldn’t do anything about. Which was true. I wanted sympathy. Not “Put your big girl panties on!”
About shoes. I ordered a new pair of Sanita clogs from Zappos. Dansko clogs used to really be Sanita clogs. About five years ago – they went their separate ways. My hope is that the Sanitas will be exactly like my old Danskos. I figure Zappos sells lots of shoes and theirs might be “fresh”. And, at my age – how long do they have to last anywhy?
