2015.05.03 – Antique Shopping

Wayne and I got up early so we could give my friend Virginia a ride to the airport. Andrew had made Wayne a cappuccino and made me a nice spicy chai with whipped cream and a cherry on top. That is my favorite way to start a Sunday. We took our drinks with us and headed out. I don’t really see Virginia much anymore so it was nice to catch up with her.

The three of us decided to head down to Sellwood and look for stuff for the house (more lighting, windows, etc.) It was a beautiful day and kind of a shame to spend a moment of it inside but it was fun to walk around the little shopping area down there. We completely struck out though and didn’t find a thing that was useful or reasonably priced.

I worked a bit more on the coding challenge just improving it and fixing any issues that came up. I did it all in Python since there was no language requirement but the company uses Perl. I hope they are ok with that!

We had an impromptu dinner night of sorts because we invited Jayde’s friend Estelle’s parents over to have breakfast for dinner. Alice, Jason and their friend Kevin joined us as well as did Lauren and Sean. We had sourdough waffles, tofu scramble, sausage patties, and potatoes. Afterward we went over to Alice and Jason’s and watched Walk Among the Tombstones. It was ok.

Today I learned that Sellwood is not the place to go for antiques.
