In fact I went to IKEA first, and walked through the whole store because there were a couple little items I wanted to pick up and I wanted to look at some options for shelving (I want to make the back bedroom into more of a functional office space for myself.) Only after walking all through the IKEA store did I go to the MOA, where I walked once around the mall.

I'm more of an ambler than a power-walker, though and stopped for a healthy lunch (salad and fruit) at the California Cafe, where John G's sister was working as hostess and recognized me (I sang at his wedding along with thorintatge and Richard). She told me about the Atlantic Books outlet going out of business, and that ALL their books are now on sale for at least 30% off. So, inevitably, for the second half of my circuit I was carrying an extra twenty pounds in books.
