breakfast of scraps/long night at the office

Monday: I slept in a bit, with odd dreams, my arms falling asleep. Up around 10. Late night last, having watched a bit of the Lord of the Rings. The thing that amazes me most about these films is, that overall things actually look the way I pictured them in my mind. I guess that is a testament to both the power of Tolkien's words and the mastery of Jackson's lens.

Breakfast with MB. Fits and starts, scraps and ends. We had the last two eggs (fried), left-over pancakes, left-over coffee, a left-over Danish and so on. A bit after we cleaned up, I headed over to KKC to fill water bowls. Saw Jf and Hln, but the center is strangely empty without Geshela around. Also set up candles for a ceremony to be held this evening. Sat for a time in the library enjoying the quiet.

Back home, and down basement for morning practices and exercise. When this was complete, I came upstairs and said hello to MB. Some conversation, and putting together a shopping list.

Headed to work. Coffee and an expensive sandwich. Said hello to Crs, and talked over a few things. Down to work, hooking up a couple of features that had been broken by my re-plumbing. All fairly successful, though a couple of unanswered questions remained by the time I left around 3:15 AM. Updated to the trunk and began a build. Sent B a summary of my progress.

Slushy snow falling outside for the drive home. All quiet here, MB upstairs asleep. Put away cookies that MB baked. A cup of tea.
