Had the day off today, the culmination of a 4-day weekend.
-
Only 4 workdays this week (I swear I don't hate my job, but everyone needs a little time off from time to time).
-
Took a great tour of the #StLouis Public Library's Beaux Arts Central Library. Thanks to Kurt, our guide, and Scott in Special Collections. Highly recommended if you live in #TheLou or visit.
-
Had the day off from work (and it's payday).
-
Spent most of it at the #StLouis Art Museum, for Free Friday. Saw the "Ancient Splendor: Roman Art in the Time of Trajan" exhibit. Really beautiful and interesting.
-
A late lunch/early dinner at our favorite neighborhood tavern. Great burgers and fries.
-
Got a sneak peek at the McDonnell planetarium's new projection system today, due to the fact that the company for which I work funded it. If you live in or near #StLouis, or visit, make sure you see it.
-
The St. Louis Astronomical Society with special telescopes set up with which you could safely look at the sun. We saw sunspots and coronal mass ejections, so cool.
-
A bit cooler today, and no rain.
-
Saw a specialist about a nagging medical issue. He was very nice, easy to talk to; I think I may be close to getting it resolved.
-
Had lunch at Gioia's Deli (a #StLouis legend). A roast beef and hot salami sandwich with #provel - yum!
-
Had the rest if the day off, so I got a lot done: grass cut, dishes washed, clothes washer cleaned, other odds and ends.
