Today was a pretty relaxing day in the fifth story apartment. I got to talk to friends from Sweden, Belgium, and Orange County all at the same time. :) Ah, technology these days.
I spend most of the evening setting up my Aunt's computer and teaching her how to use email with her new GMail account I created for her. She's having a hard time using the mouse and the whole concept of it all is a bit frustrating for her (she keeps saying she's dumb), but I think she's smarter than anyone else I know her age...she's actually trying to use the internet! That's amazing in itself. Besides, using a mouse for the first time ever is difficult for anyone.
I ordered hamburger delivery from a place with high ratings on Yelp called Island Hamburgers. The meat patties were like gigantic balls of meat. It was all quite delicious and my aunt was amazed at the size. She kept their number and I'm sure she'll be calling them again, especially when she has other visitors in town.
We talked about taking trips to Colorado to visit Aunt Patsie and about going to Ireland next April. I am so in...at least I hope I am. I should book my ticket to Europe soon so that there's no more question about whether I'm going or not. I do have to start looking into my financials to see if I can make the trip and for how long doing what. My trip to NYC for two weeks was pretty pricey and I didn't even pay for my plane ticket or half my meals. (Transportation costs will eat you alive if you aren't patient enough to take the subway everywhere...and I'm not that patient).
