Take Two (they're small)
Jun. 23rd, 2005 07:28 amI had a longish entry almost-all typed in, but then I accidentally closed the tab. Aargh!
I'm working from home today. Partly because I'm supposed to occasionally, to test our disaster recovery plan. Mostly because many of us in the department are going to the Giants game today. I'm a half-hour walk from the park; it doesn't make sense to drive down to work, drive back, and then go to the game.
Plus, I can get away with it once in a while.
Ironically, I'd almost prefer not to go today. I have lots of packing to do for this weekend, and this is the first time loading the new vehicle. I threw away the *#*%# Saturn car rack yesterday, and as I was doing so it fell apart. Which I would have discovered today, while trying to put it on (and too late to really replace it). So that's a good thing about the Highlander.
BTW, I liked "Babe" best from the names submitted, but I haven't really been able to force myself to use it. I just generally don't name my vehicles.
Back to work now.
