Just stuff
Oct. 7th, 2006 08:56 pmI'm looking forward to the return visit to the eye doctor Tueday, and hope my new glasses will result in better vision. Short drives in the nearby area only until then, but fortunately there's a good variety of stuff near our hotel (and my parents' condo is a short distance away). My eyes with new artificial lenses in them are much more sensitive to touch; a moderate touch of eyelid feels like a harsh poke in the eye.
Boca Raton does have good food. I think the selection of good gelato within a limited area is the best I've found outside of a few cities in Italy. I'm just disappointed that the Inca restaurant is closed for vacation. This evening we got some take out from "Canoli Kitchen", a small busy place with an impressive menu including at least 10 different interesting good pizzas availible by the slice. It was interesting hearing a combination of English, Spanish, and Italian as the workers were addressing eachother.
Hollie is tolerating exposure to my parents with admirable fortitude.
Ms Hollie watches "Sábado Gigante" fairly regularly, she says, though her Spanish is worse than mine. I enjoy seeing bits of it on occasion (in part nostalgia as one of the few shows still on from my teens); not having cable at home I seldom have a chance. But I can only take it in limited dosages-- it can feel to me like watching weeks worth of constant television concentrated in a couple hours.
