Sifting memories

Tuesday: Got a txt from Ann, and decided to get out of bed. Down basement, drums. Eggs, coffee. Fed the Oscar beast. Headed out, the long way around, hitting traffic. A beautiful day with the top down. Fixed a gaggle of bugs related to import and export in interchange formats, pretty much wrapping this aspect up for this release (with luck). Around 6:30 walked out. Didn't connect with the person I was trying to find, so had some pizza. Back, and this time the door was unlocked. Up to the third floor and met with the Ky instructor, and asked about hanging a poster. She seemed pretty agreeable, and interested in talking more. Coffee and back to the office. More bug fixing until 10ish. Home across town. Spent an hour and a half going through old memorabilia, sorting into three piles: [throw it out, archive, current]. Some of this was pretty emotionally difficult, sifting through the residue of the passing of my father, my cats, and my first marriage. Why is it that loss cuts deeper than gain? Email. Now some guitar, and to complete the day.

Monday: Woke up in the AM, but decided to catch up on sleep a bit. Eggs and such. Muffins! Basement, drums, etc. Drove across town to work. Lovely out. B wasn't in the office, and in general things were a bit quiet, as several people were off at a trade-show. Fixed a few bugs, staying until 10ish. Stopped at the grocery store on the way home. Leftover Chinese and videos. Emailing. Down basement, neck stretching, and completing the day.
