The News: Thursday, October 18 Edition

And now I’m back to work again. It just now occurred to me that I had two days off in a row, which is something I really should have appreciated before now when it’s over. At least I accomplished something this time around, though! The big thing was getting through to the physical therapist after three days of trying so I could make my pre-surgery appointments. I’m rapidly running out of time to get things done that have to be pre-surgery, especially if I’m going to manage to cram as much work as possible into the two weeks I have left. And now my scatterbrained self will post some reviews, which is what you actually came for.
