hope there's oil under your rose vine

Haven't yet addressed the archive install operation, but I can report that the wireless antenna fix did the trick and I'm now able to move my iBook off the desktop and into another room and still maintain a wifi connection. So that's delightful. Yesterday we did some more yardwork -- battling with the evil invasive yucca. Then we went to dinner at Nana's (a day early for Sarah's birthday). The food, as it's been on both previous visits, was spectacular from start to finish. My only quibble was with the service. It was fine for most of the evening, amazingly good right at the beginning (I'll leave that story for Sarah) and then kind of annoying right at the end. By which I mean that they brought the check without asking me if I was ready for the check. And in fact while I was still finishing my desert. That's definitely the tackiest waiter faux pas I've had happen in any of the fine dining estabs that I've been to locally. I didn't reduce the tip at all, because the experience as a whole was so good, but it does make me think twice about choosing Nana's again for a special occasion, as opposed to Four Square or Second Empire. Maybe it's unfair to let one mis-step by one waiter put me off the whole place. On the other hand, if I'm dropping serious coin for a meal, I do not wanna feel like I'm getting bum-rushed out the door.
