It's not really a break, of course. The power was out at the office, so I stayed home and dissassembled a heat pump. Then cleaned it with a toothbrush. Party time over fall break!
Very little actual work got done, but a lot of bureaucratic and maintenance tasks were accomplished. Laundry. Cooking a big pile of escarole. Rainy dog walks. Waiting on phone tree queues for customer service agents. Tickets closed.
End of day email tally: personal 87, work 81.
This post's theme word is verisimilar (adj), "having the appearance of truth or reality." The verisimilar dream meant that I actually cleaned the heat pump twice today.
