We’re having, unless talked out of it, pizza and champagne—We’ve not quite succeeded in having the week off: we did, however, get the chance to look at some bathroom tile and make plans to plug the hog-sized (either porker or Harley, take your pick)...

Actually—the Swinging Door. Jane and I went out for dinner last night: I owed her a steak after what she did helping me with those galleys. But—I left my keys. So….today we had lunch/brunch with OSG and OSGuy, and then Jane went home and I went off...
