I've been pounding away at my slides for the November talk, at least I got an extension until Thursday. But I need to focus on that, so have been offline most workdays. I miss the fun and tigging.

( One of the weirder things I've ever been paid to do (not like that) )

I took a little walk at the Marina. It was so foggy I couldn't see much: there's usually a city and a bridge or two over there. (not my picture, but fog looks like... fog.)

( dairy products: what's not to like? )

Yesterday: the kidlet got over her cold or whatever it was, so I got to spend the day doing research on digital library stuff. And I made successful garlic mashed potatoes.

Today: the digital library guy called back and I got my article done in time. And my DVD burner for backups suddenly started working again.

AND: Viggo is being particularly darling, teasing Jason Isaacs and showing off his San Lorenzo flag.

I guess life ain't bad.

So, NYC in two weeks!

We want to take the kidlet to see Wicked, she being an Oz fan, but the official tickets are really expensive. Is there any safe way to get cheaper tickets? Craigslist is full of impersonal scalpers that I don't trust a bit. Advice?

(I'm hitting Yet Another Deadline, and fighting with Firefox about printing, not sleeping enough, but at least I do have some additional paying work. Really boring conference calls where I try to stay awake and ask pertinent questions...)
