Less of a ghost town but still p empty

Yesterday P ran me to campus so I could reboot the machine under my desk, again, for third time in two months. I spent most of the rest of the day patching the surveys pipeline, writing up the series of crashes for Helpdesk, and having B help me set up a new machine to move surveys to while we finish figuring out the production deployment system so this never happens again. I also did some prep work for loading the data patch from the June 11-13 outage, and started looking at the documentation IT put together for password-less authentication into their web publishing system.

Dinner, crossword, Pose, snack, sleep. Dreamt, but they’ve already fled.

Shadow of Night has a bunch of really patronizing moments in it that are less about the characters and more about the author. They’re not dealbreakers but they are disappointing.

Lovely blue cast to the savory and thyme

Yesterday I sewed up the inseam and crotch seam on the muslin and did a
fitting on P. Added more length in the crotch and a bit at the front side
seams, as his true side is more toward the back.

After lunch we did the crossword, then went to campus and dropped off water
for me and art supplies for P’s students. Came home and spent a few hours
in the yard pruning. I knocked the red twig dogwood allllllll the way back,
saving some staves and osiers for the garden. P did the cherries and the
elderberries. I finished up with clearing the bayberry away from one of the
blueberries, the passionflower, and the path, and cut back the thyme,
lovage, fennel, oregano, and sage. A blister on my thumb crapped out so I
didn’t get to the other blueberries, the savory, or the rogue raspberry.
Another day.

Dinner, no Monday crossword since it’s spring break, Flash.
