Since I helped Bob out with his car, he was nice enough to take me to drop my car off at Gailon's. Meaning the new car, so he can make sure there are no horribly glaring mechanical problems that would prevent me from driving it to Georgia. Anyway, we did that and then he got hungry. So we went to this taco place called Rosa's or something, which is apparently famous in south Austin. Since his girlfriend lives in south Austin he knows all the nooks and such, and looked smug when I remarked about all the anti-war stuff, from yard signs to billboards. Nice to know, especially after hearing cars are being defaced for having peace stickers- not in Austin, thank gods. So far, anyway.
He was going to take me back home before he went to meet a friend, but when I found out that his friend was like a mile from where we were, I offered to go along. He wanted to run some ideas by this fellow who is a blacksmith with all the tools- he's thinking artwork for Flipside, and this would involve welding and fire and such. So after I give a tiny bit of input I wandered off and enjoyed the neighborhood, which was at the end of a street and near a little stream. The weather was beautiful and sunny.
I talked to hub on the phone a bit- he's poking into some ideas about a second career in case he decides to ditch computers. He asked me half-jokingly to ask Gailon if he needed an apprentice. We discussed it, and I happened to mention that hub has a degree in gunsmithing. Gailon seemed to think that hub could make a lot more money doing that since he already knows how to do it, so this is now under consideration.
After that Bob dropped me off at home and I spent the rest of the afternoon getting ready for class. We're already on class 6- about half-way through them. Wow!
