      Music is an addiction, a religion, and a disease. There is no cure. No
      antidote. I was hooked. ... if ever I'm asked if I'm religious I always
      reply, "Yes, I'm a devout musician." Music puts me in touch with
      something beyond the intellect, something otherworldly, something
      sacred."

  * snuggle, bath, bed ~00:30, snuggle

Weird day. Very mixed mood -- definitely better on the whole, but the fact that $grandboss is leaving to go back to research because of our inflexible management cast something of a pall over the afternoon.

I did get in a short walk, though, and there are a lot of really good links under the cut.

The day ended with lots of snuggle -- we're both saving it up for my weekend trip to Seattle.

As a frequent Starbucks patron, who does not use the wi-fi, I found the Starbucks article interesting. The selling point to me is that they have almost always been cool about me buying one cup of anything and studying and/or hanging out for as much as 2-3 hours. They seem to understand repeat business over one time purchase which can be a problem at times.
