CVS Paramus, police report, and TwitVim buffer stack

Sunny. 52°F. The one errand I had to do this afternoon was to pick up the police report from River Edge PD. Went for a geocache along the way, of course. This time, it was Caching Vs Shopping - Paramus, NJ at Bergen Towne Center. Too easy. I saw a geocacher returning the cache to the cache site so I didn't have to search at all. This part of Bergen Towne Center appears to be a new extension to the decaying Bergen Mall. I must confess that I haven't been to Bergen Mall in years so I had no idea they were rebuilding the area.

After that, I went to the River Edge municipal building. I'd called earlier so they already had a copy of the report ready. It is pretty straightforward: just gives all the standard info and states that my car got struck in the rear while stopped in traffic. Of course, since the Chinese supermarket was a few blocks from the police, I got a 3-item takeout for lunch.

Added revisions r37 thru r40 to TwitVim today. These changes add a stack of saved buffers to the client so I can recall previous Twitter queries without hitting the Twitter API. I've wanted this feature for a long time since I use the TwitVim goto feature to surf @user references and #hashtags, and it was rather inconvenient not being able to go back if I hit a dead end. Anyway, I'll use it myself for a while until I'm sure there are no serious bugs and then package it as a new version 0.4 release.

Friday - repair estimate, boots update

I went to Ramsey Auto Body, which oddly enough is located in Upper Saddle River, not Ramsey, this afternoon to get the repair estimate. After taking a look at the point of impact, the mechanic said he'll have to replace the bumper and bumper innards, and fix a dent below the bumper. It'll take two days once he has the parts. I'll speak to him again after he has prepared the estimate and gotten approval from Encompass but that won't be until early next week.

Also, I got a call from Columbia Sportswear. They will send me new boots to replace the pair that got torn up. Not the same kind but for a free replacement, I'm not complaining. In the meantime, I'll have to mail them the other pair of boots that got torn up the same way.
