Wednesday: MB had some questions about the thermostat which I perhaps didn't answer as nicely as I might. Woke around 11 again. Head cold. Email. Back to bed. Feeling a bit better, up, Gus, Shower. Fed the Gus-doppleganger in the back yard. And Gus. Two eggs, coffee. Down basement. Set some video encoding with the new software. The phone rang right at the end of my practice, giving me a startle. John Kerry's organization. I hate the phone. Drums.
Upstairs, did some paper-purging/organizing. Two sayings of my father keep coming to mind these days: People are no damn good & Ninety percent of everything is crap. Actually, I think those were my grandfather's nuggets, and my dad just passed them on.
Packed the car and headed off to work. Sunny and quite cold. More work on the copy protection problem. It turned out there was additional bug, which was rather interesting. Discovered something new about C++: you can test if an exception is in the process of being thrown. It felt like B was baby-sitting me a bit. Hrumph. I let it go. Decided to not have rehearsal tonight, as the head cold was still blooming. The fire alarm went off, so I decided to leave for the night, as I was about to leave anyway.
Back home, MB's belly-dance student had not arrived. I phoned ahead for Chinese food from Wang's, then went and picked it up. Stopped at the video store, and picked up The Illusionist, and a Six Feet Under disc. Back home, and Chinese food with MB. (Her student never showed). Made a call to my friend Chn, but it wasn't a good time for her, so we rescheduled for tomorrow. Watched The Illusionist. Fun, but pretty obvious. Some hanging with MB. Down basement, playing with the more sophisticated DVD authoring software. Now completing the day.
