I found this blog entry of David H. Thomas interesting. And of course I have to laugh at some of what he says, since we’ve all seen things like this happen.

As for me and my space: I wear progressive lenses, so my stand has to be “just so”. I need a bit of room, but certainly not anything extreme. We, too, have some tall string folk. I just work around them, and they are mostly willing to try to move if it’s really impossible for me to move. No, I never move someone else’s chair or stand unless I can see there would be a major problem. And yep, I bring all my tools and supplies on to stage with me. (Considering what I did to one of my oboes last week, though, I should probably HIDE my screwdriver. The poor oboe is totally out of whack and I keep trying to figure out what I did but even using the Sawicki book I’m getting nowhere. I remember Mark Chudnow telling me one of the stupidest things Loree does is include a screwdriver with their oboes!)

I’m assuming Mr. Thomas’ colleagues read his blog and he’s fine with that. I’d be nervous about how they’d react … but I’m often worried about what others think!

My Progress
Most of the house has been dusted and vacuumed. I paid the bills. I still need to balance the checkbook. The laundry has been washed, one load has been folded, a second is calling out to me for that, and the third is just aching to be dried. Now I think I’ll check the mail and then get dinner going. So far I’ve not gotten the energy to look at the voting stuff. Sigh. That’s the thing I probably should have done first!
