Short Updates
Good morning! Today is the Feast of Saint Peter & Paul. I dozed off browsing books last night but this morning decided on "The Imitation of Christ" by Thomas à Kempis, considered by many as a Catholic classic. Putting on the phone now. I'll be heading down to Boxborough soon...
Smooth commute down to the office. Enjoyed the book, but man, it is dense. Will likely have to listen to it more than once so it can really seep in. It is certainly influenced by its contemplative/monastic authors. Michelle is off at Golds to teach her 20/20/20 class.
Via @merlyn: Sysadmin rule for dangerous things: "Say what you're going to do three times out loud before pressing enter". Sometimes, OCD pays off. :)
Went with my office peeps to (related link) for lunch. Much less humid than yesterday at this time. Back to Visual Studio...
You just know my boys will love this! (related link)
The trend in these week's supreme court Kagan hearings: Don't ask, don't tell.
Well I didn't get what I wanted working today, but I got four unplanned failures working again. So...I'll take that. Back to New Hampshire.
Smooth drive home. Tried a different route that I hadn't done before. [Paul_Simon]There must be 50 ways[/Paul_Simon] to get back home. Listened to more Thomas à Kempis en route. His ascetic orientation really shows.
Claire is back from her day at Hampton Beach. Sounds better than a day at the desk. Just sayin...
Man! I barely get the boys tucked in with their prayers and I start yawning with heavy eyes. Good night all! I am my father's son.
Snapshots I took today:
