Jet and I had a very good Friday.

Jet started out very motivated by a coupon we have found at his preschool for two dollars off a haircut. He declared, the previous night, that he really needed a haircut. So we breezed through breakfast, getting into our clothes, and putting everything together that we needed to get out of the door and into the car.

It has been quite some time since I have used my dictation software. I am fascinated by the fact that all the commands are still under my mental reach, all the correction tools and control commands are easy to bring up and remember. I really do enjoy dictating to my dragon.

My hands are getting better, however, I might as well pull this tool back out of my tool bag and use it in rotation with all the other things that I have accumulated to this point. I have a significant amount of data that have to capture in documents for my present projects, so it is better to get this limbered up for that exercise.

Jet is doing very well. We had a lot of fun setting up his Lego trains last night, and he made very little protest when he actually went to bed. I stayed up a little bit too late knitting, when I really shouldn't have been knitting. I also found my copy of V for Vendetta, and I made the mistake of opening it. I was up until nearly 1 a.m. reading it. The funny thing is that I'm not very tired today, and had plenty to do.
