After that went to the bank to get some US$, and then went to Mervyn&#8217;s to get a new rain jacket and PJs.  I had a nice rain jacket I bought in Milan, but it was one of the kind that the waterproofing is not machine washable, so it got ruined&#8230;  So found a pretty nice one that claims to be machine washable.  Back home, finished up taking care of mail stuff and got pretty much everything organized and ready to go.<\/p>\n<p>Took Rick and Anna out to dinner at Sushi Oh Sushi, a pretty good Japanese restaurant on El Camino at Bowers.  It was Rick&#8217;s birthday on Sunday, so I treated them.<\/p>\n<p>Back home again, got things packed, took a shower and changed to fresh clothes and headed to the airport just past 9pm.  In SFO, EVA had a separate Deluxe checkin line, and there wasn&#8217;t any line for security, so that went pretty quick, but the EVA lounge in SFO doesn&#8217;t allow Diner&#8217;s Club access, so I&#8217;ll have to wait till I get frequent flyer status to get in there.  Still the wait went pretty quick.  I was able to sleep in small doses most of the flight.  Getting in in the morning, I wasn&#8217;t nearly so tired as getting in in the evening.  Still, it wasn&#8217;t long after I got home that I sacked out.  Got up in the afternoon for a while and then was out again by dinner time and managed to sleep until nearly 5am.  Now the question is how long I can stay awake today.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday morning went out to IHOP for breakfast and it was PACKED but the wait for one person wasn&#8217;t too bad.
