Stymied

Tuesday: Up around 9:30. MB had gone to work. Shower. Cats. Talked to Richard about the course. Down basement, and drums and morning stuff. Bowl of cereal and coffee. Boxed up my guitar. Drove out and tried to send it off via UPS. I’d forgotten that UPS doesn’t take shipments at their center. You have to schedule a pick-up. Drove to Home Depot and bought some screws and a few pieces of 2x6. Back home to drop that stuff off. Then in to work.

Still no pay. Spent much of the day trying to get remote debugging working. My guitar did make it off into the wild blue. Gave up on remote debugging, and switched to simply trying to build the project on the machine in question. Even this simple task proved unassailable. Worked until about 11, then gave up, ending one of the most frustrating days on record.

On the drive home, hit a big patch of traffic on Storrow. Backed up off an on-ramp, and fled. Back home, had a strange but satisfying sandwich of cheese and soy-meaty tomato sauce. Down basement for evening things and email. Some guitar on the old Ovation.
