Yesterday I tidied the sewing room a bit and trimmed back the border on
Gerty’s embroidery project. I sketched out some of the sewing plans for
summer to get them out of my head, then went online to order ecru crochet
thread and some appropriately-sized steel hooks. I started reading Our Lady
Of The Open Road (vol 2 since vol 1 isn’t in Hoopla for mystery reasons),
an anthology of all Hugo-nominated short stories. The title story was
excellent; Today I Am Paul likewise; the next two a little triggery. I took
the bus to work and walked in from dinosaur park. Spent the afternoon on
scripts to restore user accounts on all the machines. Next up is software
packages.

P had a meeting with C about his prospective fall courseload, and a
contradictory note from someone else in the department that he’d have to
teach a mini sight unseen... given the terrible experience he had doing
that with 270, I’m surprised they would try doing that to him again,
especially without a signed offer letter. Hopefully they can get that
straightened out.

P drove us home, then dinner, crossword, Flash, snack, sleep. Was unusually
hungry before and after dinner; I’d made the poor choice to skip part of my
afternoon snack and it threw everything off.
