20080112: Costco trip: got a 4Gb CF card ($40 w/ coupon) along with the groceries (I'll need it for the D300 (review)...).
20080113: Sore throat started Saturday, turned into a full-blown cold/sinus infection Sunday: Drippy, Scratchy, and Wheezy all stopped by for their pound of flesh. Set up wireless networking again, since it's handy to be able to sit on the couch here and type.
20080114: Left work early (noon), worked from home the rest of the day. Shuffled some shelves to put the Forgotten Realms books that I'd brought back from my parents away, and the Dragonlance Meetings Sextet too.
20080115: Home sick. In the evening, evaluated JavaScript libraries, decided I liked Prototype/Scriptaculous best for its simplicity and power and handy shortcuts (tied for first runner-up were Dojo, with dynamic layout features, and Yahoo (YUI), which is massive and somewhat scary, and neither do dynamic full-screen layout, although I may decide I don't need that later...). TI-84+ calculator and Vacancy and Transformers DVDs arrived. Decided on another must-have for whenever we move: a home theater.
20080116: Co-authoring coroutine PR finally ready for check-in (PR testing done, code reviewed, qtests passed, BB tests running). Scanned 4 DVDs (Andy Griffith season 1, Ocean's 13—had to add it, Canadian version, Vacancy, and Transformers). Dishwasher fixed (signed up for Sears plan, ~$200).
20080117: Checked in coroutine PR. Honey scraped her car parking at school.
20080118: Honey slammed a drawer in the kitchen so hard that the Isaiah 40:31 eagle picture that my parents gave me fell down, chipped an outlet cover below it, and splintered the frame. Playing with Photoshop CS3 (or should we say I saw a demo?) MRI, right hand (Evergreen Radia).
