The event was at the MIT Museum as part of Massachusetts Space Week. Old tales from NASA's Apollo program were told by a handful of old guys who'd done the work some sixty years ago. Best story was how MIT convinced NASA to let them build a digital autopilot for the Lunar Lander (LEM) when it would save the weight that was critical to allow the program to proceed. Fun to remember that real engineering constantly abuts obstacles that appear to be unsolvable.
Exercise was walking, CREDIT moi, to subway stations. It's so neat to be able to get places on the subway. At one point I ran to catch a train while juggling my cell phone and my wallet that held my subway pass. Had the opportunity to drop both - possibly irretrievably - just to save fifteen minutes waiting for the next train. Sobering to be reminded how easy it is to forget priorities when excited.
onebyone - Great news that your wretched virus receded enough to allow a fun trip to your farmer's coop. Celebrating the eight pounds despite how awful a price its loss was paid.
Joy (gardenerjoy) - It is amazing that a hot tub session can make your whole day move more slowly.
Silverbirch - Celebrating an "edged down" whether permanent or scale jiggle. Just another reason to get to Musée d'Orsay to see van Gogh's Japanese Anemones.
maryann – Happy Birthday to your DH. Always Congrats for "Decluttering step by step."
curlyjax - Gotta add the Armenian Museum to my Bucket List; I know almost nothing of the history of Armenia. Neat to get to have lunch at a new Greek restaurant while working. Good news that your DD is seeing some day shifts.
