California had a decent-sized quake for my birthday. 6.5 at Paso Robles, according to a friend who's in LA. She said that it felt all rollie-pollie and the lights in her office wobbled.

I've spent the morning with Mom. We looked at over-priced computers and digital cameras at Circuit City. Then we went to the chi-chi (well, as chi-chi as any place can get around these parts) grocery. I got myself a decent bottle of cabernet and a bar of Lake Champlain dark chocolate.

Then we went to Uwajimaya. Mom kept on trying to buy a bento box for me. It's a nice thought, but I don't really need one.

I know what I do want. I also know that I'm not gonna get it. Oh well.

Now it's on to do research for Mom's new computer, and maybe new digital camera. That'll be fun.

Bye.
