Floss


and WD-40.



James tried to get an early start on dental hygiene by flossing his teeth.

I think my knees are healing okay, but my legs are feeling awfully leaden, heavy, and tired nowadays. Apart from walking Bessie a couple of miles this weekend, I haven't done any serious jogging since about a week ago. I'm thinking of buying a bike computer for my bike and returning to cycling, at least until my knees stop hurting.

When I came home this evening and had dinner, I decided to soak a while in the bathtub, hoping the hot water would soothe my legs a bit. I noticed that the little plunger knob thing that shunts water from the bathtub spout to the shower head had finally stuck solid with mineral deposits. It wouldn't budge, so I asked Hsuan to get my can of WD-40 off my workbench in the garage.

Then, sitting in my bath water, I sprayed the hell out of the bathtub spout and worked the knob until it was nice and loose. Meanwhile, my bath water got a nice WD-40 smell to it. I'm not so sure I wanted that. Maybe the WD-40 was moisturizing.

Visited a parish school in Pasadena as well as our parish school in Glendora yesterday. The one in Pasadena is probably the most sought-after parochial school in Pasadena, so it's a long shot that we'll get in. We'll likely apply, anyway. Our parish school in Glendora is less difficult; I think it's probably more a matter of registering rather than "applying" to the school.

We got a nice phone call from the last private school that William visited...
