madbakerFriday was the wife's birthday. I took the day off work (which I needed - but that's another, longer post). We went to the Monet exhibit at the DeYoung. It was fabulous. We also saw the Gaugin exhibit, which was meh. Then we had a very nice dinner at SPQR, which is a regional Italian restaurant the wife has wanted to try for some time. (I had blood noodles with blood sausage. It was yummy.)
Saturday AM we got up early and drove to Crown. I spent the day running around like a mad thing. I had lots of paperwork to deal with, with multiple people. We (that is, me and my June successor) got it all done. We did gate and the standard stuff. However, we (that is, me and the wife) buggered out early; part of burnout maintenance has been acknowledging and planning for it. So we skipped court, Etaine's protege ceremony, the anniversary potluck for John T, etc. Instead we checked into our hotel and went to a decent burger joint near campus.
I have a spiffy new silver fealty chain made by an Oerthan friend. I like it very much. (Good, considering the cost.) I also demo'd the 14th c bucket straw hat. It looks just like the pictures!
Slightly sunburned on my shoulders, slightly dehydrated, very sleepy. But the event went as well as could be hoped.
