Mom threw a dead rose in the compost pile and it came back to life

Yesterday got my teeth cleaned, which was fine. I might be conveniently
switching to the other dentist at this location in January, since he
apparently wants to stop sharing. Serendipity, since I’ve been less than
impressed all around and P seems to like the other guy and his staff.

I finished pinning all the pleats, pressed them, basted them down, and
basted in the waistband to check for fit. The pleated section is actually a
bit small, but it seems to fit okay up at my natural waist, so I might just
roll with it. I dunno. The waistband is really made to sit at the high
hipline.

Work was much better; I got everything to at least build, created a new
repository in version control to hold it, and also fixed a collection of
issues one of W’s students was having.
