19 October 2004. I went off on my bicycle before work to try to find Buffalo Graphics, the one place I knew of that can copy colored images onto transparencies. They had moved since Charley. I'd gotten directions to their place but didn't bother to memorize the details, for--as usual--I was over-confident in my ability to get near them, and then find them. It took me over an hour, after asking at least ten people for help, and getting good directions from at least three that I couldn't follow well enough to find the place. It was out of the way, and in an area I'd never been to before. Still, I should have been able to find it much sooner than I did.
My second unhappiness of the day followed quickly: I found out that one colored transparency would cost me almost $4, and I had over thirty to get done. I decided to just do 11. I'm hoping the museum I'm doing my presentation for will do the others for me, but can get by without them.
I was able to get some more blank transparencies at school, so finished copying the few remaining black and white images I had set aside for the presentation. I again added nothing to my text for the show. I'll take tomorrow off to work on that. I more and more feel I won't need much text.
This morning I started a list of websites having to do with my kind of poetry. It's in one of my catch-up entries--the one for 1 September. I'll put an entrance to it on my homepage in due course. I mention it here because it's another chore for my presentation that I've managed to get partly done, for I'll use it in the handout I plan for that.
I'm starting to itch to make some new mathemaku. I even worked a little last night on one I made a very rough sketch of in August (and reported on in my 31 August entry). I'll be so glad when my Miami gig is done with!
