It is time for the Holiday Model Train Show at ArtSpace in Downtown Round Rock. It is a series of dioramas surrounded by train tracks. For a $5.00 donation, you can control one of the many trains circling the exhibits. For some reason, this entertains me for long periods of time. Check it out if you find yourself in Round Rock for the Holidays.
My dinner tonight was Indian food at Tarka Indian Kitchen. I chose the Lamb Korma with a medium heat. As usual, it was yummy.
The Round Rock ArtSpace had their First Thursday Art Reception this evening, and it featured Día de los Muertos art and artists. My favorite painting was called “Bella Catrina” by Jennifer Estes. Also, if you find yourself near Round Rock this Saturday, there will be a celebration downtown in the evening.
My drugs for my tooth infection are starting to kick in. The swelling is going down and the pain is relatively manageable. One side effect is that the pills upset my stomach. The bonus is that I will lose some weight for not eating so much. After spending most of the day in bed, I ventured down the street to watch the second half of the football game. We’ll see how this goes…
Not much to report regarding the tooth, but tomorrow is another day. The news in Austin today is the terrible flooding in South Central Texas. The Instagram feed above shows the power of the floods at Barton Springs.
This broken tooth has been one of the most painful events of my life. I have been mostly sleeping all day, because that seems the best way to cope. In between long naps, my iPad has kept me company. Take some pills, watch Netflix, cruise social media sites and play a few simple iPad games like Star Wars Commander. That is my life today.
So this little dude shows up on the office window today and hangs out for a while to observe the human species at work. He flew off to observe other things after a short inspection period. I was wondering if he considered himself a butterfly or a moth. The following quote from the Library of Congress website might help you decide.
Chicken, Chicken, Goat, Dragon, Rabbit, Horse, Chicken…
And as an extra bonus this time – Dragon stamp card!
At times, the laws of physics and common sense are totally ignored. This is not good for a NASA flick. If you can let science go, then the movie has its moments.
