  % no BPH?  pad dry, anyway.  !cautiously optimistic
  * up 8ish; W=197; drugs, nose; laundry; shower; coffee
  * sorted some receipts.  Starting to look more done.
    ! pleased at making some progress
  * order: Colleen's netbook:  Dell, 10", purple, ~dual-boot
    2GB only available for Ubuntu or Vista.  makes no sense.
    Looks like the only way to do it is to order the mini-10 with Ubuntu 
    according to the selector, vista doesn't seem to be available anymore
    10v not available with 2GB, either.  So there's only one possibility.
    Only question, really, is whether to get 250GB hard drive or 160, and
    whether to get the faster CPU. -> no to both.

A very good day. From a little clutter reduction in the morning, to ordering a new netbook for Colleen, to the YD's impressively gorgeous "zed cards", to a st/roll twice around the Rose Garden with Colleen, to making a tasty dinner of chicken piccata and kasha. And ending with a last-minute shopping run, originally just for supplies at Walgreen's. But W. had closed half an hour before, so I ended up at Safeway and impulse-bought a bunch of flowers for Colleen. Go Me! She was surprised and delighted, which delighted me as well.

Sometimes, on the bad days, it's hard to remember that I can have good ones. This was a timely reminder.
