Yes, we actually managed to get out to the coffeehouse this week to get in some lappie time. Yes, this means we are huge geeks. It also means that Mr. POSSLQ is not on call (I made him turn his phone off on Friday, just in case they got the bright idea to call him and try to make him work... seriously, it's getting out of hand...)
After the coffeehouse, we will head over to the PetSmart and then to SuperTarget to do the grocery shopping and then home for a flurry of activity. Weekends really ought to be at least 3 days long, because it seems that there is just never a day to "do nothing". I worry about Mr. POSSLQ's burnout level. If I am not mistaken he worked for 5 weeks without a break. And even if you don't actually have to go out on a call on an on-call day, you can't PLAN anything because you have to be ready to go at a moment's notice.
Operation 1000 days (999, now, I think) is progressing well. I haven't gotten as much done as I would like, but I am making progress and I am happy with the progress I'm making.
We stopped by the local petstore yesterday (as opposed to the chain store - PetSmart or PetCo) to pick up some new substrate for Pitr the Tortoise. They had an itty bitty bunny there who was SOOO cute. But Mr. POSSLQ had lectured me before we even ventured out yesterday that there would be no new critters coming home with us. I asked if I could get a varmint and he put the kibosh on that, as well. I believe the lil Bun was an Angora or an Angora mix which means it would have needed daily brushing. Still, it was young enough it could have been properly socialized and might have even LIKED sitting in a lap being brushed. But, we probably don't need another critter right now. I still have to clean out Greg's cage and we will probably break it down and store it. It's really hard looking at it all empty like it is at the moment.
So, this afternoon will be cleaning up the corner of the house that was occupied by Greg, changing Pitr's substrate and maybe taking him out for a romp in the yard, doing laundry and some other tasks.... including preparing strawberries for tonight's strawberry shortcake dessert!
Mr. POSSLQ and I have also been talking about another possible project that we will discuss more and probably go ahead with. If all goes as planned, I may add video editing to my list of mad skillz!
Have a Stellar Sunday, Internetz!

Sounds like an efficient way to use a Sunday. Sorry about Greg; I must say, that is quite an unusual bunny name. My brother had a vicious bunny, maybe if she had been named Greg she would have been gentler.
@Laura - There was a short-lived TV series called Greg, the bunny. Mr.POSSLQ and I loved it, so when we got a bun, Greg was an obvious name (and more original than the "Spot" his previous owners had called him!)
