I am slowly going crazy 123456 Switch Crazy going slowly am I 654321 SwitchThis is what happens when you've got ~300 chemists in a building, not allowed to leave for the day, and all the computer networks are down. So we can't do any actual lab work. We can't work on reports. We can't surf the internet. We can't read the nice Baen Free Library books we (okay, I) have stored on the drive. And we can't go home...Our weekend was great. We went to CT on Saturday to game and hang out with the Babcocks and Hallets (and Lee). Brian got in a lot of play time with Tisiphone (sp?? Anyone?) We had a great day, BBQ for dinner and a relaxing time. Sunday morning was very leisurely, then out to breakfast and we took the ferry back. We've looked at taking the ferry a number of times, but it's expensive ($60 for two adults and 1 car), doesn't save us any time, and the schedule generally sucks for us. But since we were in no hurry, we thought we'd try it. It was a neat thing to do, and we spent the hour or so on deck enjoying the weather. Even with an SPF 50 sunscreen, I still got a little sunburned in that hour on deck, but I refuse to not go out at all! We probably wouldn't do it again with the car, but if we're just going up to Milford as a day trip again, I'd be all for it. (Much cheaper with no car.) No photos since I hadn't brought my camera with me for the quick overnight trip. Got back and mostly just lazed around. With my hand still largely out of commission, no gardening or extensive crafts for me. Monday was spent relaxing at home, and going to go see Pirates of the Carribean 3. We both enjoyed it a lot. Make sure you stay through the credits though, as there is a little bit at the end of them. I did stitch a little to see how my hand was doing, and got about 4 threads done (on TW's Fantasy Triptych) before my hand started getting sore, so I stopped there. URG! Sent by email from the now functioning computer network. I wrote this yesterday afternoon at work...

Have you tried stitching with your left hand, using your stand to hold it? It's awkward, though.

I like the new place.
