I don't think I made any meaningful contribution to society today. I slept in, ate breakfast, read the paper, made a nuisance of myself "helping" my brothers cut each others' hair, then talked my younger brother into going on a Travelpass adventure.
It wasn't much of an adventure in terms of location, however I just wanted to browse in a posh stationary* shop and he wanted to look at cymbals. I discovered that cymbal shopping is a lot of fun! There are like heaps (at least a hundred) of cymbals on stands and a bucket of sticks and you grab a stick or two and walk around hitting things!! Had a lovely time there. Also some very amusing sounds coming from the saxaphone department in the next room where a drummer was trying to play a bari sax. Much mirth ensued. We also ate gelato (tiramisu gelato from Bar Italia is amazing - huge chunks of cake in it!!) and ran through the city in the hope that someone would think we were criminals on the run and chase after us. Hehehehe. I am very mature.
*Edited to add that the shop was indeed not moving anywhere (relative to the street that is) however, coincidentally, it also sold many items of stationery!
