hrj Closed two investigations today at work, turned in an extension request for another one, and hope to have a fourth submitted for review by Friday. On top of that, I turned a request to shepherd a memo through our (recently upgraded) electronic document system into a "walk and talk" demonstration for the rest of the department, since I seem to have become the early adopter of the upgraded system in our group. That's all it takes to turn me from yesterday's sluggish "I'll never get caught up" to a feeling of accomplishment. Of course, all it takes to destroy that feeling is to get handed a couple more assignments before I have a chance to clean up my last oldie-moldy.
The Tuesday Movie Group watched Shakespeare in Love and I was reminded once again what a jewel of perfect what-it-meant-to-be-ness that movie is. I think it is to historic movies what Galaxy Quest is to sci-fi.
Biked down to pick up my car from the shop on my lunch break. Just a routine major service, with a couple add-ons for things that simply start needing replacement after (checks calendar) twelve years.
Yesterday the mail brought me a packet of dried sourdough starter fromjoycebre and I started the revivification process this evening. Too soon to see much progress yet. I have christened my culture "Sara" in honor of aryanhwy 's birthday request. May they both continue to be bubbly and effervescent.

Date: 2020-04-30 04:39 am (UTC)4/29 temperature 97.4 (this is getting really boring) - bike ride to the Honda dealership wearing mask, unavoidably close proximity to staff, mutually handled objects, but wearing mask throughout. On the drive home, stopped to buy a flat of mangos from the fruit vendor who sets up at the corner of Farm Bureau and Wren. I always wave to her when I'm out biking and figure that business is probably slow. Also: I love mangos.
