Went to the city to start installing the Squirrel. First I had to fill 9 trash bags with styrofoam peanuts from the crates so we can lift out the squirrel sections. I set up a corner for Squirrel body part hospital-riveting seams tightly together. It was hungry work but Clees had promised a celebration dinner. Anyhow after the long day, C says we says we have tasty fish at home. I was very crestfallen.

Michael Acega, the Conquistadork of the fiberglassed ship made from manila folders, came up all shy wanting to know if we needed anything. We went lunching. We met Renny the curator en route who was out on the hunt for a suitably impressive opening outfit. Mike said maybe he could wear a tie made out of manila folders. Then he said that was one of those thoughts which should have been quietly dismissed in his mind.

We found a bustling sliver of a Thai restaurant. There were photos of dishes outside the window and Mike said he could not resist a dish with a fried egg on it.
