Oh dear, I hope seeing other kids enjoy swimming will encourage her.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I wonder if the stage manager I knew at the Burt Reynolds theatre is still there.

I think he turned it over to the community college around 1990, and then was taken over by Maltz maybe around 2000. We saw several shows there last year. It was much smaller and more intimate in the 80s, but not very profitable. It still has been very focused on education from his time to present.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
My coworker has also been sick all week, so she hasn't been peppering me with questions and things I already knew. Today she's back in the office, after first making sure I know how sick she still is.

I've been starting to set aside some time for myself on weekends so I've been trying to improve my woodworking skills so I can do a decent job making the arcade machine.
My first practice project was making a box:

The stain isn't very well applied, though I can probably clean it up with some mineral spirits.
I also got myself another lego tank (not actually Lego because these are a fraction of the cost of actual Lego). This one is a British Matilda II. They are kinda cool, because although they were small, slow, and only mounted a two-pounder gun, but they were heavily armored and in the invasion of France the Germans discovered their tank's cannon's shells would just bounce off these little things. So these little, slow tanks helped disrupt the Germans enough for the Dunkirk evacuation. Which is way more than you wanted to know.

Nice work, Gud! I'm glad you have some hobbies that make you happy.
Today has become food prep day because the fridge was getting out of control. I threw out what wasn't salvageable. Prepped carrot sticks for Francesca's bento box, put chicken and root vegetables in the crockpot with curry sauce, and put the rest of the root veg in the oven to roast.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Everyone is very stupid and I have lower tolerance than usual for it today

Quiet day here. Got to listen to President Obama talk, which always pleasant. I should be productive, and yet.
