They've got it pretty well down in Cambridge, MA, I think -- I'm pretty sure they get results same-night now.
In other news, my most embarrassing housekeeping success of the day: I just threw away all the canned food my grandmother had stored in the basement. My grandmother who died five years ago.

I am back from National Book Fair. I got food+drunk with friends before that. Ended up with an Arendt and a disability studies' book (+ a book for a friend and a book for my mom).

I think I hit Peak Thrifting Score yesterday: a Bakelite mourning brooch, probably from the late Victorian era, for $6. I also found brand new pointy toe leather shoes from some high-end Italian brand.

Home from second round of playing with the band this weekend. So fun! So tiring. I think someone asked if they could book us, though??? I wonder if they would do that.
