Glad to be back home...

It has been one of those certifiably crazy Fridays.

After making sure that incoming assignments were not critical and not expected back today, I joined Galina in an odyssey to finalize the renting of the daughter's house. This should not have taken as long as it did, but it did. We got back home at nearly 6 pm, and all I wanted to do was to lie down and take a nap, but that's not really a feasible alternative at that time of day.

So, I drank a cup of coffee shortly after returning home (not that the caffeine really affects me, one way or another—I suspect any "stay-up" quality is more suggestive than anything else), and have stumbled along in front of an unbelievably vapid program on something-or-other until just a few minutes ago, when I figured I could better spend my time filing navel lint, should there be any to be found in my vicinity

It will be a working weekend, so it was good to get some "free" time in today.

Cheers...
