Dream adventures with time dragons

[infryq]

Yesterday I sewed the bottom tier onto the petticoat and flat-felled the
seam, and it’s beautiful. It’s probably a little long, but I’m going to put
a tiny hem on it and take up the extra length with tucks rather than
cutting it off. I think. It’s voile, so that might not work as well as it
would on something with more body.

Work was excellent; I had a session with R that made some deep connections
to dangling concepts, and a meeting with IT to discuss purchasing options
for the NAS, and I got to see our servers in the server room, and everyone
was very competent. I compressed some more old data and found the stash of
“users no longer with the lab” archives. I got a recruiting email from an
AI firm in NYC and CT on recommendation from my old boss. On
double-checking with P that the CT location is no better and perhaps worse
than NYC, I declined.

P walked home, and I took the shuttle. The new ironing board arrived, as
well as P’s xmas present. On putting it away I located a different gift for
him I’d stashed months ago and forgotten about. I’m slowly learning to plan
gifts earlier, but it’s a long learning curve 🙃

Dinner, crossword, trash, and then I was pooped so I just noodled around
with phone until bed.
