Weather continues to fluctuate up and down, cool again yesterday and most of today, the the low 50's. Can't wait for consistently warm weather. Tue at work that felt a little like Monday. Monday - yesterday - was awesome, though, we got the whole afternoon off and tickets to go see the new Star Trek movie, plus get popcorn and soda . I quite liked the movie, well self-contained and entertaining throughout.

Got home a few min ago. Need to eat something, but not much, I am not really hungry. Then have to see if I can find a reasonable ticket to go to Spain for Memorial Day weekend with Nicole...

Also, my replacement TV arrived today - the unit they sent last week was defective. I call Sunday and a new one shows on on Tue, not bad. Interaction with Dell's customer service so far have been very good. When they realized it was a hardware failure (unit was DOA) they quickly expedited shipping of a new one. Only thing left now is get the bad one over to them. I was supposed to get an air bill in the box when the new one arrived, but I don't see any, so I will have to contact them again.

The super helped us get rid of my black leather couches today. A bit of a shame, since they were still quite useful, but they were indeed very old and Nicole didn't like them at all . Anyway, they are gone. Much more room in the living room all of a sudden. Still have some work to do to organize all the furniture. The apartment is almost livable by now, it's take a while to sort everything out.
