Good Things
1. The Padres won today, snapping a four-game losing streak.
2. I managed (after some puzzling failures) to set up an account with the Shop'n'Save Pharmacy and order the refill of my prescription on-line, complete with e-mail notification when it was ready.
3. The weather is finally spring-like: 70s F today, 80s tomorrow and for several days after.
4. I've overcome a roadblock in the Skyrim project, and am moving forward on one of the two most complex parts.
5. I've begun reading Pepys' Diary; the main interest so far is the fluctuation of public opinion in the period between the fall of Tumbledown Dick and the Restoration. Shall we support Richard (Cromwell), George (Monk), or Charles (Stuart)? (I've only made it into mid-March, 1660. This is going to take a while....)
6. I'll be giving finals on Tuesday, which is also the day of the department's Cinco (plus one) de Mayo potluck, celebrating the end of the semester. The diff. geo. take-homes are due Thursday. By sometime Friday, I'll be on break.
7. I'm not always tired anymore!

5. There's a wonderful audio version of Pepys' Diaries, narrated by Kenneth Branagh, if you can get hold of it. His reading of the bits Pepys wrote in French, in particular, had me rolling on the floor.
7. Yay!!!
