Jeff Billimek’s Journal

I woke up around 9am and didn’t go to the gym this morning.  Instead I cleaned up the study and shredded some papers.  Jen was in a bad mood.

A little while late I left for my 12:30pm haircut appointment at Studio 8 salon with Tami.  She did a great job cutting my hair.  We talked about engagement rings because she is expecting to get engaged soon with her boyfriend.  I also had a splash of highlights done too - nothing big.

When I got home I noticed that the internet connection was down.  I watched a discovery special on the Airbus A380 and worked on the laptop.  I got the cell phone bluetooth data tethering set up.

After Jen got home we went out and headed to REI.  I exchanged my sunglasses - again.  They have a wonderful return policy.  I love REI!  We did some shopping for other stuff too.  Jen looked at running hydration packs as well as water bottles.  I looked at special hiking daypack hydration packs and found one that I’m really interested in.  It’s the Camelbak Alpine Explorer.

Next we went over to the Honey Baked Ham company to buy a ham for tomorrow but unfortunately they were already closed for the day.  So we went next-door to CompUSA where they are having their going out of business sale.  Everything in the store was 20-40% off.  Jen bought two iPod armbands and I got some rechargeable AA batteries as well as a couple of cheap movies on DVD, and some CD sleeves.  I also looked long and hard at the UPSs but didn’t get any.  One can never have enough UPSs in their house.

Once we were done there we drove all over the area and explored the new restaurants near the perimeter mall area off of Ashford Dunwoody road.  We went into the new Eclipse Di Lune but they had a 45-60 minute wait.  So we decided to have some takeout from Curry Curry instead.  We headed towards home, stopped at Publix, and bought a bunch of stuff for Easter brunch tomorrow.

After that I called at Curry Curry to place an order for takeout.  We got an order of basil rolls and two orders of spicy basil fried rice with tofu.  Once home, we put the groceries away and ate dinner while we watched the new episode of ‘The Office’.

Jen got things prepped for brunch tomorrow and I kept her company doing research on hydration daypacks.
