The dance is sweeter than the song

Today is all about the errands, including a physical therapy session, a stop at the library to return books, at Staples to drop off used ink cartridges, and at Goodwill to drop off Various and Sundry.  Deliveries may happen; in particular, delivery of my replacement trackball.  There's also a phone call to make, but that may wait.  I'm in phone-avoidance mode, and it's not an emergency phone call, after all.

Also, somewhere in there I ought to do some writing.

The weather has reverted, slightly -- down to 30F/-1C on the overnight, and slow to warm this morning, though it's nice and sunny; should be a good day for running around.

For those who care about such details, I'm re-re-re-re-re-&c-reading Hellspark by Janet Kagan, because -- comfort book.

What're y'all reading?

Well, to be fair, I do put a lot of miles on my equipment. This time, I just wore out the right button. I did remap the buttons (so now the left button performs the functions the right button has abdicated) and switched it over to my left hand, but it makes my brain hurt to use it that way. Probably a good reason for continuing, but lazy will, I fear, triumph. The UPS website reports that the new trackball is on the truck for delivery and will be in my hands by the end of the day.

Ah! Being able to track the UPS guy...priceless!
