Back in Virginia

Let's see. As I write this it's Monday and I got in to Dulles Airport on Wednesday night. Screwed up right from the beginning as I didn't remember which was my cousin's apt. He wasn't going to be in town so he left me a key to the place but it did require me to remember which place was his which I should have done as we stayed here 5 days last summer. But oops completely screwed it up created problems for his best friend and daughter. BUT I did finally get in the correct apt and hit the sack. 3 hours later I was wide awake with a large number of dark hours ahead of me. Such is the wonders of jet lag. The next day I wanted to be sure I caught the Germany - USA world Cup game and did from a Subway in Reston, where I went to eat, and a sports bar down the street. Half way through the 2nd half I got a little light headed at the sports bar, probably due to the lag and a possible cold coming on. Back to Subway to drink tea and finish the game. Then home for a nap before picking up Ry at the bus stop. Friday was cruising the car dealerships for wheels. Ry was patient but they were more expensive than I wanted. Looks like it's back to Craigslist. Oh and took the Langston Hughes record over to Langston Hughes Middle School. Saturday the cold hit me full on and I slept much of the day. That obviously didn't help my jet lag and once again I was awake most of the night. Sunday after the soccer games we went to get my rental for my trip to Harrisonburg on Monday. Where I thought my insurance was going to come from didn't happen and so I had to pay some larger coins for the Alamo insurance. And I learned. And so today is Monday. Got up early (still lagged) and made the 2 hours to Harrisonburg. Visited Rocktown Realty, the Visitor Center, the town library, EMU Athletic Dept, EMU Human Resources, Rockingham County Education Dept. all in the morning. Finally subway for lunch.
