Luminosity, you may like using university or community college computer labs. The frequently permit community users. I actually registered at a zero fee course online at a community college then used the legitimately provided computer account for awhile. 12 to 14 hours of computer use a day. They noticed me eventually, then after a quarter I registered at a course less than $20. They permit people to check out laptops 48 hours as well.

What is the overall impression: I'm here again in this masculine temple to high-end electronics. It would be o.k. if I could shut off the sound systems, and ban a few people. Oh Jesus, it's the Beatles. Early-stage, soggy Beatles pop music. "All you need is love . . " Aarghh!!!!!!!!! Shut that off.

They're getting ready for the new IPhone tomorrow. There will be a line out the door, people in a cordon, and iced tea served from a cart. I will try to stay away as a courtesy.

Right now I'm in the Apple store. I wish they didn't have music. The store has cleared out for some reason. I feel sad. I feel discouraged. I feel unsupported. I am trying to do my best. I am trying to look on the bright side. I am trying to walk in the light.

I went to four churches today. First I went to where I usually go to to pray. It was too busy, and I couldn't even see a reason for a group of people gathered there. A few of the other people I see there seem to be walking a line between posing in an attitude of prayer and sleep-sitting. Maybe it's a ruse so some can rest. Unfortunately, it invades a space that might have been private for me. I tried to pray but it was too busy. There was this one hot woman who came in and was praying, strange to say. Went to another church I saw before. There was a service being preached in Samoan. Tried a Catholic church because I thought they were more likely to be open. No. Went to another Catholic church. Creepy gravestone memorializing the unborn. Reeked of too sweet perfume, evenly spread around church, strangely. No. Tried another Catholic church but it was closed and kind of seventies looking in a cramped sort of way. Sigh.

It's a hot muggy day and coming to a large shopping center didn't make that any better. My hair smells kind of vinegary-yeasty. It feels good to be in the air conditioning where I am right now. I have my take out food with me, they didn't have any extra ice to ice it down. I hope it does o.k. until I can get in into the cooler in my car. It is interesting to go through hot weather without any cold drinks/air conditioning. I don't have air conditioning in my car or home. I don't have fans either. And I always wear long sleeves/pants, and natural fiber clothes aren't breathable like they used to be because of the formaldehyde finishes. I'm doing pretty well in view of that. Doing better.

Right now im wondering why I still feel a sense of touch from someone that touched me on the back (just wanted to). Like the feeling of touch and the vibrations etc from the hand felt like it left a mark on me or something atleast for now.
