- RT @KurtP: RT @CourageCampaign Hours left until Lt. Dan Choi’s military trial. More than 125K have signed his letter. http://bit.ly/4mrJ27 #
- Slept really poorly last night, due to heat in house. Need to get into the summer swing of things at home, finally. #
- I know I pondered long and hard a few weeks back how to ensure I had my work cardkey when I returned. Pondering without acting, tho = FAIL #
- Also, so glad I got to work early enough to have card key lack keep me out of office *and* elevator. Rrg. #
- Head, remarkably, appears to be screwed on. Thank God for small favors. #
- On the plus side: 1. Starbucks coffee this a.m. was free, 2. Kindly office mate let me in after 10 min. 3. Confirmed I have Mon. off, too. #
- Why is it that one of the key Finance support for IT folks I work with is so clueless about Excel? Yeesh. #
- It’s okay if a 30 min phonecon lasts 90 min if it actually solves the problem discussed. Or gets within finger-crossing range at least. #
- Getting onto new bank account. Plus, Happy Canada Day! (No relationship between the two.) (I think.) #
- On my way home – or, rather to pick up Kitten and comic books. Of course, I’m on the wrong train, but plenty of opps to switch. #

Oh … turns out I did actually do something about my office cardkey. Fearful I’d somehow end up losing it in our peregrinations out in California, I carefully and cleverly placed it on my car seat. I just didn’t see it there at 0-dark-early yesterday, and only spotted it when I returned to my car after work. *sigh*
Ah, irony.
I remember back when I was married, the wife and I spent 20 minutes tearing the apartment apart looking for her car keys. I finally happened to glance at the wall, where there was a piece of wood carved in the shape of the word “keys” with little hooks on it, and on one of those hooks…
I showed her, and she laughed, saying, “Oh, yeah. I put them there so I wouldn’t forget where they were.”
/facepalm
