[pink] Except for cities in Calif + Dallas was the only choice I left undecided. My only concern was that it may be too far... [\pink]

Finish Supernova. Interesting...

[pink] More ~ Dallas vs. L.A. [\pink]

11:30 To bed.

Thu Mar 2 '89

Snowy, deep, again.

7:00 -----

[pink] Shovel snow off back steps. Sydney. [\pink]

Finish reading some old LA + VBC rags. Trash

Pay Am Expr. Go to corner for WSJ.

9:15 [pink] Mom calls: Airport is closed. [\pink]

9:30 -----

Call Bev Hill High + Newport High. Vac'n is Mar 20-24, same as Meg's kids, so it'd be crowded...

[blue] Decide I should put TI MBA Calculator into storage, since I've tried 2 different battery packs + it doesn't work. That's from HBS era, so it's quite out-of-date, and should go along with typewriter, when I get it back from Dean Simpson. Also put tape recorder from Stanford (1973!) and TI Business Analyst (Redondo Beach '77) into storage. Miscellaneous other cleanup of den closet.

The only mechanical Digital Sanyo clock.

Water shower massage from Bill Gates

And toss out old boxes. [\blue]

Go get new bedroom alarm clock since old one is from Macy's Stanford '72, and is awfully yellowed. New one has battery backup, and is very similar to Radio Shack lamp timer in living room. That backup is essential if power failure occurs while sleeping.

Only advantage of old one is internal photocell for adjusting brightness of LED, but ne one's fine...Old one cost $25 in 1972. New one is $10 in 1989!

12:00 [blue] Also pull out old tent, [Seal st Croft Frishoe?] + Trac Ball. Take all this stuff to Shurgard...Look at TI MBA manual ~ programming. Amazing what people must've had to do before PCs. So outdated. Glad to have the old approach off my desk. [\blue]

1:00 Jalisco's + Feb 28th Bottom Line.

2:00 WSJ

2:45 ----

3:00 To Fremont SMB. Beautiful sun! Nice shoulders day. Safeway for orange.

5:00 [blue] To UW Bookstore. Exch TIBP-7 for Sharp Calc. [\blue]

5:45 -----

Read significant parts of Sharp Calc Ref Manual. Nice to have it be portable: small + batteries only, not rechargeable. I can take it on trips.

7:00 Mis odds + ends, of [blue] cleanup ~ apt. [Pann Dors?]! I can fit into the size 32 again...[\blue]

[pink]Remove note ~ "Starting serious earch for condo here" from calendar + add to small Blue Blinder. [\pink]
