Look, Ma, no...

On the way to National Airport this morning, I was (typically) running a half-hour late. Then became mired in slow-moving traffic on I-66E. My weekly vehicle health management telecon with a large aerospace company was rapidly approaching, so I found myself booting my Mac G4 laptop, unzipping a file, and reading the contact number and password out -- all while still driving. =:-}

Then I joined the conference call via cellphone, while still driving. Sigh.

Otherwise, I had a lovely afternoon with Nancy in Minneapolis, picking up Land's End items in their outlet store for $6-8 each. patgreene is getting a new top and pants for $12 that lists in their catalog for $116.

After a bit of cuddling, we went to dinner and to Augsburg College -- Nancy belongs to an ice-dance club that meets there every Thursday. It's a graceful-but-strenuous sport... and males are much in demand as the female skaters outnumber them 2x-3x (contemplative look)...

I'm back home now.

You know I'm going to have to yell at you for this, right? Might I suggest that you program the number into the phone and pick up a hands-free set for your phone.

This was all decided mid-drive, and the handsfree set was buried elsewhere in the laptop bag. The numbers vary,so I haven't programmed it.
