Work: Supposed to go to a board development committee meeting at lunch. Conducting after-concert shakedown.

I have an eye doctor appointment this afternoon. Hopefully, this will be on the road to getting whatever problem I have over with.

Reading: THE KEEPSAKE by Tess Gerritsen. Glad to say it's going quickly. The story thus far: Maura was on hand at the CT of a mummy found in the storage of the Crispin Museum. Though the mummy wrapping carbon dated to 2000 years ago, the woman inside is clearly from modern times. This is now a homicide, cue Jane Rizzoli. Not really spoilers but if you don't want to know beyond the basic premise from the book description, stop here and jump to the next orange text. The curator's assistant is acting suspiciously, obviously hiding a deep dark secret, and is being stalked. A second modern victim disquised as an ancient object is discovered at the museum. Suspicion is falling toward the now deceased past curator who had Alzheimers probably for many years and pretty much had the run of the place as the owner and fifth generation Crispin collector was off collecting. Another discovery linked directly to the assistant means it is a perp who is current and active among them. End any potential spoiler. I'm just doing this to help me write up a review or something later. I'm really bad at book descriptions.

TV: it's tv night. The Closer, the Cowboys are playing, and a couple other little shows. Probably end up not watching much. Huh.

This week I need to prepare for the trip to Helena for the MNA conference. Need to get the car tuned and gassed. Figure out the best route to Helena and how to get to the hotel. Find out if the hotel has wireless internet. Read my presentation over and over and over until I know it backward and forward. Figure out the flow of the presentation. Get enough $ for food, gas, etc. Figure out what to wear for three and a half days. Remember to bring the cell phone charger, the laptop, etc. Why am I doing this again? Oh yeah, networking and learning.

Yesterday was all right though I did take a nap there wasn't a whole lot of relaxing with the cleaning and stuff to do. I need to go to the grocery store soon, probably tonight for a couple priority stuff on the way home. Ay yi yi, it's always something.

Monday of a four day week and counting down.

Much love,
