Tired

     I have spent the entire work day -- 9:30 in the morning through 8:00 at night -- working with a very sharp factory support engineer to get a vital piece of equipment (okay, a small TV transmitter) functioning normally again.

     We succeeded.  Ten and a half hours of geekery in the constant roar of cold air and noise with no lunch, just a few snacks and sips of water and tea, is tiring.  I'm going to take the victory, however impermanent it might be, and go to bed.

I feel so inadequate. My biggest accomplishment today was fixing a jammed ratchet strap.

I got an MRI with contrast done today without wetting myself. The staff had been warned of the possibility and they just said, “No Worries, we’ll take care of you”. I was very grateful for their support and positive nonchalance.

I got a haircut that day. Do I get a prize?
