I had various things planned for this weekend, but after struggling the last few days with fuzzy-brain syndrome from cold–I decided recovery was a priority. However, I did still manage some fun. Friday night I installed a bluetooth adapter on my computer (late adaptation, I know)–and it worked! Cool. And it paired with the cell phone [...] Today I went to Panera Bread Company for a late soup lunch and a place to work with fewer distractions than I can create or find in my home.
