survived the first full work week since our vacation. the weather has been brutally warm & muggy up until today. the humidity is gone and it's sunny and pleasant. a good day to be,  say, somewhere other than work? have spent a good part of the week putting out virus fires (bagle_worm.ah), and putting out a veritble plethora of fires and flare-ups. weekend looks like the family unit will be heading out to the slice of shoreview, and maybe a get together with grandma & grandpa down in eagan. still have some projects at home that need attention. not sure how far i'll get with that. more later...
