Skating tonight

Four new moves: inverted T-stop, shoot-the-duck, half toe-walley jump, half toe-loop jump. As well as jump combinations (waltz jump-ballet jump, waltz jump-half toe walley). And my first few spins were much improved, I pumped my fist after the first one. :). And I started working on bigger jumps with more air and height.

After 80 minutes of this, I was worn out, despite ample endorphins. I took some tools over to tenacious_snail's, watched her put dining room chairs together, and fell asleep on her carpeted floor. I went home and have been dozing intermittently since.

goth work tasks

A slightly weird job task... calling headstone companies, in search of a block of limestone. Our project's Mars-prototype drill arrives in a day or two and I'll need something comparable to Bedford limestone to drill into for initial tests. Finding fieldstone isn't easy, most of it is prefabricated into thin slabs for walls and kitchens. Most tombstone companies use only granite, nowadays, but they're still my best bet for finding a local slab... so I'm calling grave marker companies, identifying myself as from NASA and then asking them about their supply of stock...
