WHOA WEDNESDAY

Whoa Wednesday. Slow down day ........ you're going way too fast.

Ok, so I bought this really great lampshade on my "shopping trip to Lombok" White, rice paper, a fold up-down accordion kind of thing for a new hanging lamp. Yeah, I know - the living space in this house has 23 (counted them) light bulbs - but the bedrooms, do not. Anyways, how hard can it be to build a new lamp? Really?

Some electrical wire (white), a plug-in receptacle (white), a switch (white), and a receptacle for the bulb (black?) BLACK? What do you mean black? Believe it or not - a white one does not exist here. Really? I went to darn near every shop. Everything in white except for that. What's with that? Now I have a completely white lamp that looks totally great except for the one-part BLACK. !@#$ Welcome to Balikpapan. Next time I'm going to do the whole thing in black. Yup, next time I'm going with black.

Great day yesterday (except for the one-part BLACK) Wandered. Everywhere. And we all liked that. Stopped in a place called Resto for lunch. Nice little spot. And I do mean little - decorated completely in a Harley Davidson theme (more motorcycle madness), including the bar in the shape of the crest. Nice spot. Good place for lunch and some good company too!

..... and we have boughten the nice little turkey (rather on the large side of little) for our Easter Dinner too.

Today: Last day before the big Election that's taking place over here. All over the news. Appears there's a few issues regarding the voters lists. Seems the same ID numbers are showing up more than twice. Hmmmm

.......... and the jet planes are flying overhead. Today - one, two, three.

.......... and since the other Me is still out and about. Good day for Kepiting - crab night tonight.

Good to Go!
