First day experimenting with sleeping when I am sleepy and not when I am not. Also, yesterday I ordered a thumpy alarm for deaf and hard-of-hearing people like me, because I do still need to be awake when there are outgoing packages to be picked up. We shall see. (I generally nap on the couch very near the door, and my dear mail carriers are very good at thumping the door loudly, because I can't hear regular knocking most of the time. I have a sign I put out that says PLEASE THUMP THE DOOR, and they generally do.)

The one downside to going free range with sleeping is I do not key things to the hours of the day very well, so I missed the packing window for something. I'll just have to pack it to go out Thursday. I can do this.

Also, managed to have workbench time! YES. And some VERY satisfying workbench time. Besides all the earrings that need their earwires, there was doing of a thing that needs doing which I think is going to work.

Besides all that, my back continues to improve.

OK then, that was a Day. Oh, and there was a sort of durian moon cake thingy! I never had one of those before, though I have known I like durian ever since the place with durian milkshakes was a little ways away from here. This thingy was good. Bánh pía custard hopia, is what it said if I read it correctly. Om nom.

Have you tasted something recently that you haven't tasted in a long time?
