Done yesterday (20110505 Th)

( raw notes )

Hmm. Not a very productive day overall, and somewhat stressful at work, but not too bad. My "walk" consisted mostly of a ramble through Fry's, which wasn't much in the way of exercise but at least was air-conditioned -- it got up into the 90s. I did get Mom's copy of Hearts of Glass, ... mailed, hopefully to arrive before Mother's Day.

It seems unlikely that the Clueless Coworker will get his task done today, so I'm likely to end up with the rest of it dumped in my lap. That's what I get for designing something subtle, I suppose.

The drive after dinner was very nice; most of our conversation revolved around how comfortable the house feels now that the UBF is no longer in it. The YD has been uncharacteristically cheerful; we wonder whether that means she feels it too. That would be delightful.

Although I'm intrigued by the idea of TCP-over-magic, the title of best link for the day is split between ysabetwordsmith's poem "Threads of Magic", with its reference to quilt codes on the Underground Railway, and a great video on Abortion in the United States via catsittingstill, which inevitably reminds me of her song "Underground Rail".
