pitch, roll...

yaw. (Yet another weekend.)
This one being the last before I head northwards, I'm going to be spending time here with the kids. Not with patgreene, who has chosen to spend the morning and afternoon elsewhere.

Otherwise... I'm erasing the drive on my new PowerBook and reinstalling everything fresh (to eradicate any spyware that our in-house sysadmins at work might have installed when they processed it, and to reclaim the root password from them ;) . I don't want anyone other than me controlling root access to any machine I need. Not exactly exciting, but necessary before I go.

This afternoon, I'll drop James off at some classmate's party... which is suspicious, if only because p3aches somehow knows about this and urged me last Tuesday to not simply drop James in the parking lot. I'd be even more worried if Pat and I weren't on better terms since our last therapy session... I'm unlikely to be served with papers, I think. (wry grin)

Tonight, Sunday... no plans. Perhaps paint some cabinets, or buy a Bluetooth-enabled GPS receiver (my old Garmin has died after 6 years).

I've got a weekend mostly alone, too, with deyo working all day today, having a date tonight, and having an all-day date tomorrow. Normally, we prefer not to stack a weekend full for only one of us like that, but his other sweeties' availability was hard to come by recently, so he took what he could get. I'm taking the opportunity to have some real quality time with both myself (I need rest desperately), the house (it needs cleaning desperately), and DJ (she needs some time just to cuddle and maybe go on a walk).

Re: Dropping James in the parking lot -- I'm not sure exactly what's up with that, but depending on how well the child knows a place, how well I know the people I'm dropping a child with, and the actual child, I'd consider a child to be a relay baton, and want to see the adult in charge at the party acknowledge that the child has arrived, so that the child's whereabouts are known the whole time.

Your comment on dropping in the parking lot is amusing the hell out of me today...

Last night, on our way back from court, we dropped off one of my coworkers whose home was along the way to court...We dropped her in front of her house and were almost gone when she came running after us. Apparently, her keys were in the back seat...

I just got this picture of my coworker running after you in her heels, trying to get her house keys....(yes, I'm crazy today...)

If you haven't ever meet the parents it is always a good idea to do so.

I'm glad Pat went out for the day. I think it's great that you'll get some time w/the kids prior to your departure. Hope you enjoy your day.
