Pen-Shmen

Printed then signed a document for the bank. After sending it, it was returned with instructions - "print THEN sign". My fancy-shmancy pilot g-tec ink pen made my handwriting look digitally scanned, according to the bankers! I assume they thought it looked too clean to be original - shouldn't have been overly careful about signing it then or shouldn't have used the g-tec pen! I found it disproportionately funny. Re-did the form and this time, I used a regular ballpen. The banker's feedback was "pretty penmanship". Oh gosh.

it rained

it rained today and it came down hard that it sounded like hail but then again it could just be 'cause of the new gutters we installed last week

Mano-Mano

Copy-pasted over 100 items and decided to finish tomorrow. And then, will go over another file that's twice as long. Converting to CSV, mapping and importing was an option but discovered that duplicates wouldn't be detected by the program. Already saw a duplicate on the first file that I finished copy-pasting mano-mano so I couldn't risk it - wouldn't. Besides, I don't know lick about data-mapping, learning it would take SO long, I was not confident and I don't want to risk errors that would otherwise be prevented with mano-mano . It's too hot and humid. Complained about it already (a lot). Sticky keys.

Voted and Fed

Went bright and early to the nearby public school to vote, yesterday. The only way I was able to pull that (bright and early) off was without sleeping the night before. 'Twas the first automated elections in our country - history made! When we got home, this was breakfast. It was good.
