Today was a pretty good day. Rach and I got up, put on matching cowboy-style shirts and went to a cool store called Who New? They specialize in authentic mid-century modern furniture -- that is, stuff you might find on the set of Mad Men or some sort of "mod" film from the 50s or 60s. I want an entire 1960s office set - including the wood-paneled desktop radio/lamp. Rach got something called a "shimmering tree." It's hard to describe, but I'll post a picture tomorrow. Perhaps she will write about its personal significance to her in her journal.

Then we went to Bob Evans where we has some incredibly underwhelming food. The table behind us made a terrible mess like I had never seen in a restaurant before -- a total disaster that required another server to come help clean it up. There was food and shredded paper all over the floor. I wish I had taken a picture. But here is the interesting thing: everyone else in the section saw what had happened and made an extra effort to clean their table and tip in a manner that countered the bastards. One guy pulled the server aside and told her that she shouldn't have to deal with that sort of thing. I think the group had tipped about 15 bucks for a bill that was over 100 (Rach can fill in the actual figures). From a sociological standpoint, it was neat to see so many people from different ages, genders and backgrounds feel the same group-hatred for these people who violated a social code.

Just wanted to log a good day in the books as they seem to be somewhat rare these days.

Dobler.

Rach and I are watching yet another Keith Olberman cameo on the soup (not as funny as the Mad Men and Breaking Bad cameos), and I'm testing this LiveJournal app.

Here's a test picture:

I hope it works okay.
