Morning

It helps to actually put the freshly-ground coffee into the coffeemaker before you run it. It says something about my current mood shift that the first thing I did on discovering this was to start mentally composing this post rather than cursing at my stupidity.

Mostly home today

Colleen's been down with the flu all day; decided to stay home most of the morning, run her errands, and see whether it was worthwhile going in to work in the afternoon. I think this is the same mild flu and severe post-nasal drip and congestion that I had earlier in the week; it seems to have hit her a lot harder.

Went to a talk this morning at 11:00 at our Cupertino office; that's halfway to picking up A, who's the Cat's usual shopping companion on Wednesdays. So we went to Cosentino's -- everybody who works there knows Colleen, and most of them know A. About half remembered me as Colleen's other half, but only because A's presence reminded them.

By the time we got home it was nearly 2:00, so I had lunch and went out for a belated walk. So much for working in the afternoon.
