The weather has turned cooler, and windy, but there's hardly been a cloud in the sky. The campus is a lot quieter than usual, due to spring break, so I've been snapping a few pictures of buildings while the snapping is good. The Boojum tree has been duly euthanized -- cut off about four feet from the ground, so far. There's a colony of cactus around its base that they probably didn't want the tree surgeons to squash. The bottle-brush trees are magnificent, trailing lavish plumes of scarlet. My allergies are at the point where one Benadryl a day isn't enough, but two are probably too much, which is about as bad as it gets. (I'm ridiculously sensitive to that stuff; most of the time one 25mg tablet a day is more than enough. Too much makes me tense as well as dry-mouthed and drowsy, so I try to keep the dose as low as possible.)

You can now get a G-mail account from the Google front page. At least, I could, and did.

Amazon is now showing Crystal Soldier as 'usually ships within 24 hours', but my March 1st order is still marked as due to ship in the first week of May. I'm slightly tempted to cancel and re-order, but it seems silly.

Reading, writing, plant photography, and the small details of my life, with digressions into science and computing.
