I am sort of working. Logged into the work laptop while IT takes it over remotely to update my Citrix receiver. He didn’t have time to do it yesterday and I won’t have time Monday so here we are. And it looks like he dl’d the wrong one yesterday so first we will get another version…

I did my morning pool stuff, ate lunch, and now I'm guessing we're about to do the crossword.
I have a game night elsewhere tonight, so I will go buy some sort of savory app to take (don't feel like making stuff), and then I think chill and read until we leave.
Tomorrow I will work some.

Update did not fix my problem, alas. Neither did switching browsers to Edge.

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.
I got groceries and now I need to do laundry. The weather is perfect, so I might loaf in the hammock for the rest of the day.
Tim and his brothers have been sorting through stuff at their parents' house so they can empty it so that it can be painted before it gets listed (unless a private sale happens). I've been staying home and letting them do their brother thing, so I've been binge-watching Roswell and making oven nachos. Tonight is season 3 and, instead of nachos, sushi and probably a lot of olives and feta cheese.

That sounds great, Tep!
IT is giving up until Monday. Bah. I’m going to lie down and read for a while.

Oh! Plus black figs are back at Trader Joe's, so I'm going to roast some with goat cheese and a little balsamic vinegar. Is it dinnertime yet?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
This has not been a great trip for us. Mr. S has not had a good night yet, and poor Gary hasn’t gotten to see much of the con. It doesn’t help that Mr. S woke up at 6:30 this morning.

The guy arrested for attacking Rushdie has pled not guilty. Seems strange if this was fatwa thing, but I could be thinking about it all wrong. All this violence because of The Satanic Verses has always been so hard for me to understand, it seemed like a pretty mild book when I read it.

Good morning, Buffistae! Welcome to Sunday.
I hope yours is proceeding in a lazy fashion.
I made omelettes for JZ and myself, and Matilda is sleeping in.
Matilda has exactly three more days of summer before she starts her junior year of high school, and she was at a bonfire last night. So she's getting her summer's worth.

Nice!
I've gotten a pedicure so far.
The friend I was supposed to have dinner with asked to reschedule, which actually worked out great, because I want to get some work done... and, also, she was at the game night last night, so now we can have some happenings before we get together for dinner to catch up, ha.
So beautiful here this weekend. Miraculous for August in this area.
