  % elevated pulse.  Sugar from the berries?  Or anxiety?  About what?
    Actually, the sugar is more likely.  Had some this afternoon, too, after
    eating some prunes.  Hmm.  Oh.  Right.  Prediabetic.  :( :(

A good day. Productive. A meeting in the morning, a good walk, and an afternoon deep in the code mines working on a CGI script that I thought was going to be simpler. Silly bear!

And the federal tax refund check arrived. Now I just have to find time to get to the bank. Probably tomorrow.

Thanks to Andrew and Kash, who hauled off half a tonne of paper and e-waste from the shed and the garage attic. The e-waste paid for the day's work. There's more, but it's a lot better than it was.

I got what appears to have been a heads-up about being pre-diabetic: a distinct, strong physical reaction to sugar. I mean, a handful of prunes? A bowl of strawberries? OK, I get it now.

Some good (and occasionally scary) links under the cut.
