modest feeling of accomplishment

Yes, I should have done it some time ago, but at last my toilet seat has been replaced and no longer requires high-quality duct tape accents. :-)
Had a frustrating afternoon trying to get out of the house to meet friends, but eventually did it, only to spend three (3) hours in traffic getting to my normally 1.5 hour-away destination. Every once in a while I think, "Maybe I could manage to stay here for the long term," but thankfully it's usually followed by the experience of spending half a day in traffic to right my perspective again. Roll on, departure.
That said, I had a nice evening wargaming with friends and, more importantly, having a good natter with my friend Frank. My hobbies, I have to say, have brought me into contact with some terrifically nice people who have become good friends (and, admittedly, a few wankers, but you meet those everywhere). Another game of Lasalle under my belt, and a few more possible converts.
One more day of freedom, have to quickly do several things tomorrow, but I would like to get at least one bike ride in while most people who clog the trails on weekends are at work. Then Saturday with no special plans, Sunday sinking ships with The Admiralty Attorney, and off to my new job on Monday.
