You take the good, You take the bad

Tudy, you in trouble?

First the bad. My credit card and two debit cards were stolen. And used. It does not feel good, and it's quite a nuisance to deal with. I am hopeful, however, that I will not be responsible for the charges incurred.

Both good and bad. During the exciting Bartel Ikea extravaganza, I purchased some bamboo for my cubicle - two stalks (not a lucky number, I know). One of them has grown and flourished. Treating each equally, it is unclear to me why the other has chosen to whither and die. Perhaps I did not treat it with as much dignity as the Swiss. Since I have gone to Ikea on a mission for curtains for my sister, I was able to buy another stalk. Hopefully it will do better.





The good. My friend Amber was in town for an archeology convention, and we were able to hang out. I had a great time visiting with her. We ate at one of my favorite restaurants, Cafe Zorba. We also took a ghost tour of dupont circle. It was a walking tour in which the guides shared spooking happenings in buildings in the neighborhood. Good times.
