Today was a wonderful day. I started the day with making a CD for Tina – Christmas present. Tina then wanted to go to Denny’s so we rounded everyone up and went to Denny’s. I had Tina take Nathaniel and his brothers home so Amelia and I were left at Denny’s … We decided to go to my house to make a CD for her Christmas present. … I talked … Amelia into going to a movie with me. We went to see “You’ve got Mail.” It was pretty good, but I was quite cold. … She called me on the way back home and told me that her CD was not working in her stereo. I’m going to try to burn her another CD on a different type of disk tonight and give it to her before I leave tomorrow. …

I got back from Pasadena this afternoon around three. After I finally got settled here I started working on the Elizabethan audio while I was waiting for Nathaniel to show up. Right after he got here we went to Best Buy to return my MD Deck. We also stopped by Wendy’s on the way up there to pick up the users manual for the opcode box. Nathaniel managed to leave it there, but we didn’t realize that until later. On the way back I decided to stop at Oscars to get some breadsticks. Since Amelia wasn’t home Nathaniel and I decided to go to Amy’s house and see if she was there and if she wanted any breadsticks. We stopped and she ate a couple while we talked. She decided that we should go out driving around. It was soon after we got in the car that I wondered where the opcode box manual was. Nathaniel thought that he had left it at Best Buy. Nathaniel, Amy and I drove back up to Murrieta to Best Buy to get the manual. It was right next to the iMac. Then we came back to Fallbrook and called Jena and Amelia at someone’s house and went to pick them up. Once we finally found the house, we all went to Denny’s.

Denny’s was constant laughter. It was hilarious. Amy and I had to bail on the rest of the bunch because we both had to be home at midnight. … Amelia, Jena and Nathaniel are still at Denny’s waiting for Wendy to show up and take them all home. Hopefully all will be well. I want to spend time with Amy tomorrow, hopefully I can find some reason to. …
