Cool and windy, but still clear and moderate. Yesterday was pretty nice, between wind gusts. I’ve got a bit of chapped lips, despite drinking water and not being in the wind all that much.<\/p>\n
I finished the tasks I’d set for myself at D2’s school. I moved some stuff, set up the light we provided, talked with the kid doing sound, and searched the theater for some missing gear… and I found some plug parts and fixed the followspot electrical plug. The strain relief had gone missing and someone had just wrapped it with e-tape. Better than NOT wrapping it, but not as good as replacing the missing part. At some point some sound gear went missing. I found the manual in a closet, so I know it was probably delivered when the district did the ‘tech refresh’ but it vanished after that. As a tax payer, I get upset by their poor stewardship of my funds.<\/p>\n
Then it was off to make some smoke and noise, then lunch, and kid taxi duties.<\/p>\n
Slightly more productive than most of my recent days…<\/p>\n
—————-
\nAnd I’ll say that sometime in the last three weeks I had the 59th anniversary of my birth. Never thought I’d get here, now I don’t want to leave… not that that is imminent. Or at least no more likely than random chance. This will also be my 20th wedding anniversary in a month or so. THAT is astounding too.<\/p>\n
Anyway, today I’ve got pickups to do. Two down south of me, then several fairly close together north and northwest. Some preps, some hobby stuff, some household items. <\/p>\n
Stuff to add to the stacks.<\/p>\n
Pile it up!<\/p>\n
