I'm birding with Bob Wilson and one of his friends. I don't have my binocs with me and an just along for a hike in the woods. They spot various birds. Then we come upon a sort of shack with a big window. Inside is a huge crow with golden spots on its side. Bob tells me that its quite rare. All god and all black ones are common. Then we're at someone's house and there's a guy wearing a black sport coat with the same spots on it as the crow we just saw. I ask him if I can take his picture and he keeps taking off the jacket an putting other tops on. Then I had the camera I'm using back to its owner. It's an all black Nikon SLRA with a flat top on it. We discuss Nikons and I mention that I have a Nikon D7000 and they're pretty impressed and mention that it's still a really advanced camera, even though they have a pro model.

I'm helping set up and art show. One of my paintings has been accepted and I keep pushing to have some more of my paintings in the show. I help the director of the show. For the last painting she picks one of Mark Bonnani's paintings and we hang it. It's an abstract painting and on the side is a triangle made out of wood with a painting of an eye in the middle of it Then we all pose for a photo.

I have a pizza and a cheesecake at work. I get called away from my desk and when I return some has taken over my desk and eaten almost a my food. I put the remaining pizza and cheesecake in a Jett's pizza box. 

We check into a hotel. The woman at the front desk is impressed that Joe's Greek and we get a special room Bill is the bartender outside our room in the hallway. Sue, Christo, and Jenn are hanging out in the hall. Sue grabs me and pulls me onto the bed and says, "I have special plans for us." 

I'm wearing blue sweatpants. I explain to someone that these are my casual sweats and my grey ones are my business sweatpants. 

Joe has some cookies and she wants me to taste them. I do and they have a funny taste to them. The guy who made them is Egyptian and he explains what he put into them.

I order and eat a rare steak. Then I visit a place where they turn grains into fake meat. I demo it. I grab a small piece of it and knead it. It starts to grow and looks like a head of broccoli. I put it in my briefcase and try to catch a bus downtown. I give up and walk.

We're eating in an outdoor restaurant. It's taking forever to get our food. The waiter tells us our flight is in 2 minutes. We miss it. I complain that we shouldn't have to pay. They bring boxes out--to eat at the mall. We each get a salad, a slice of pizza, an entree and a roll. We sit down to eat. Joe gets a big glass of white wine and I get a red. She says we should have Sober Sundays. Then we're at St. Paul's only it's huge. I'm restoring radiators. Some are beautiful brass ones only most are totally corroded and rusty.
