I've learned of the space shuttle disaster, cried over it a bit, and done the dishes.
I'm going to pay a couple bills (such as the mortgage, important little thing that it is). Then I'm going to head out, stopping at the library to return a couple books and pick up the three that are waiting for me on hold. On to the Japanese Gardens or to one of the parks - I haven't quite decided yet, but I'll do something of that sort. On the way back home, I'll stop at the office, where I'm going to use a CD burner to do backups of my laptop. I still haven't gotten it to talk nicely to the Win98 machine that has the burner here at home. SIGH. But, I'm not gonna hold on backups until I manage that. It has no problems with the work network, anyway.
Scott is helping someone move, and then gaming. I'll talk to him tonight or tomorrow about vacation time and scheduling it, but since the company has decided that the cap won't apply instantly, it's not as pressing as it was. Probably March or April-ish.
cadhla has been writing lots of poetry lately, wonderful as always. It makes me want to write again. It's been a long time since I've written much - other than entries here, and while I like to think my entries and emails sometimes contain a good turn of phrase, that's not what I mean when I speak of writing, exactly. Not just getting words down, but trying to choose the words and the tone with artistry.
We'll see if I give it the time. I know myself, I'll probably sidetrack when I get the books. :)
