I walked around Arlington and Cambridge yesterday without a cane. i'm experimenting to see if I can (at least temporarily) leave them at home. I don't like having to carry one. I almost fell down at a couple points, but I didn't. While not completely inactive, my vertigo issues seem to be at a relatively inactive point. I know that I'll probably need to take a cane with me again in the future — but if I'm not going to be falling every day, I don't need to bring my cane with me every day, eh? I can take the occasional tumble, especially since I'm wearing thick fake fur coats with padding to dampen any falls that do happen.

purpleglitter and I went out for a Indian food dinner last night. It was very yummy. Before dinner, purpleglitter gave me her green velvet and fake fur Oscar the Grouch coat as my anniversary present. I've been lusting after that coat for years. Now it's mine. I'm very excited. And if she's nice, I may even let her borrow it sometime. I gave lake a stack of ten coupons good ten times each (1 for each year). They are good for things like 10 back rubs, 10 trips to Target without complaining, 10 clean the birds cages, etc.

After dinner, purpleglitter and I went to see Alexander. Boring. Needs less fighting and more pretty boys making out. There was also a sad lack of a sex seen between Colin Farrell and Jared Leto. That scene would have forgiven many wrongs in the movie.

With the exception of Alexander, we had a wonderful anniversary.
