Car Talk

Up early to take the car in for its 30k mile checkup. They paid for the rental car. Hertz desk conveniently located in their showroom. Drove to work, expecting a call at any moment from them about the brakes, but nothing until 2:30 when it was all done. Everything is fine. Returned the rental car, had a bit of hassle with the Toyota credit card people - but they covered about half the cost with points.

Back to work, it was now rush hour and there were a lot of slowdowns since I was driving with the commute instead of against it. 

Did a lot of routine boring tests at work, the machine kept crashing, though. Monday I get a different one. Right now there are three big (52", 46" and 42") TVs in my cubicle, we need to find them a home.

Straight home after work, traffic was slow but not impossible. I finished DVD #4 of the home movies, and spent the evening cranking copies and printing them. The new printer whips them out quickly. I'm impressed.

Plans for tomorrow:
Change the litterboxes
Pile a LOT of gear into the car and bring it to Goodwill.
Maybe recycle a lot of boxes
Try to cope with the rain.
