Where is everybody? I can't procrastinate properly when no one's nattering.
I don't really have a security blanket... unless you count Mr. Pointy.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Nothing interesting is happening to me.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
As often, I'm trying to make it look like I got anything done this week. Also meeting 3/1 deadlines.

FAIL. Insufficient data. No, really. My car has not been driven enough since the repair. I've got to go back in the next month. Sigh. They suggested a week, I said I drive less than 50 miles a week, they said, maybe 3.
So I gassed up the car, went to Target and got a pedicure.
spotcrime.com is the best local one. Founded by my realtor's husband, actually. But it is reliant on police releasing reports and that's, well, citistat has issues.

I just read this fantastic long piece about a 40-year-old track record: [link] It's marvelously written and pretty heart-breaking. Ouch.
In an hour I get to sign the final papers for the sale of my folks' condo. And I really need to print out travel documents, since I'm going on a site visit on Monday & Tuesday.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
My watchband just broke. That's the most interesting thing that's happened to me this morning.
(Well, that and stumbling across maybe the most depressingly iconic piece of 1980s footage I've ever seen - VHS tapes being packaged on an assembly line in the US. 2 relics of a long-forgotten age...VHS tapes and American manufacturing jobs.)

Good news on the condo sale, Consuela! Or being almost done with it, anyway.

Right? Sigh.
