Sunday Morning, March 18

March 18, 2018

1) Today would be Gramma's 116th birthday.

2) I ended up going to bed quite late last night, and woke up at 6:38 AM to start the day. Lots to do, but right now I want to dribble off this sofa like a slug and somehow return to sleep.

2a) I'm going into the office later. Not only to make up some time from last Tuesday's snow day, but - and this is exciting! - tonight I am hosting a second etiquette dinner for MIT students! The senior class found out how well received the first one was and one of their class officers arranged another.

3) "I expect we'll find this is full of quotations."
