What’s that quotation? “May you live in interesting times.” Yeah, that’s the one. I’m definitely having a few interesting weeks. To quickly wrap up the saga of the broken-down Mac, it’s all good now.

Thanks, Ten Plus Systems in Raleigh, NC, you guys rock; got my Mac back in shape in a few hours. I had exactly one day to enjoy that peace and quiet. Ah, it was lovely. The dam at Kerr…

I’m going to cheat just a bit this week, since Wednesday is the day my trailer has a date at the beauty parlor all day (aka the service department at Safari Condo), where all sorts of things will be happening to the inside and the outside of Breeze.
