Just a few notes:

  • Woodworking continues apace.
    • Re-joined the top for and rebuilt (except for finishing) a drawer in a chest we've got.
    • Looked at fixing the china cabinet, had my impression of both pieces of furniture very downgraded.
    • On the basis of those two projects, realized that even for stuff we get for free we're not always being picky enough about furniture quality.
    • Got most of a generic rectangle jig built yesterday, as a result of which we may be breaking down and buying a Festool "MFS".
    • Cut the crap out of my right thumb yesterday afternoon working on said jig.
    • Charlene has started sanding down "the Teddy table" (named after a great aunt of mine) for re-finishing.
  • Life continues apace
    • First bike ride in quite a while, down to Muir Woods to hike with the Sunday morning crowd.
    • Charlene's step sister is in a bad way, possibly due to complications from Mediterranean Fever.
    • Participating in a biofeedback study, a result of some interesting results that were not at all what anyone expected when I was hooked up to a set of EEG sensors. More on that as I understand it, but the person who hooked me up to all those sensors said "Wow, that's an interesting result, I need to use you in my PhD thesis study".
