Retroactive blogging, II!

7/26/11:
Today was a good day. I found out this morning that I will have home internet as of tomorrow morning, which formed the necessary permission for an idyllic day that included breakfast at Bouldin Creek CafĂ© and an excursion to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center. Note to self: although the latter was lovely, mid-summer in Austin, Texas is perhaps not the best time to engage in this sort of outdoor activity. Unfortunately, as the trip was somewhat spontaneous, I did not have Shutter Island with me, but the website has pretty pictures. Amazing what can thrive in the desert. Oh, let’s wax metaphorical about that. This would be perhaps time better spent than falling prey to the gnawing restlessness that accompanies the mounting question: what do I do  here? It would seem that even the temp pools are full of piranhas. Which is to say, don’t get a paper cut in this job market, kids.
Let’s check the score, shall we?
This week’s daytime touristy activity: check!
This week’s night-lifey activity: to follow!
