Update.

Very little happened today, which makes it a refreshing change from yesterday. I taught a well-received workshop on improving sleep quality. We had fondue for dinner. Now Maria and I are hanging out on the computers and listening to Spanish pop music, while curiousangel lies in bed reading Neal Stephenson's Quicksilver. He was home sick today, but is obviously planning to survive or he wouldn't be starting such a monumental project.

My boss copied me on e-mails in which she metaphorically lies down in front of my office door to prevent them from moving other people in. Let's hope it works.
