This weekend has moved as slowly as the internet, with little progress. I cut the grass yesterday before the rainstorm -- an improvemnt over the hailstorm earlier this week. Today I went out for the last time, trying to speak to the dean at Block. I gave us -- they were closed, just like the Women's Humane Society. Midnight went with me on a futile trip to get her booster shots.
