- 7:45 am: Get to church for rehearsal before the early service (my handbell choir was ringing). We did OK during rehearsal, outstanding in the early service, which, of course, meant we screwed up the second service. Sigh. No one else seemed to notice, though, which is good. I did manage to eat breakfast and read the Sunday N&O between services.
- 12:30 pm: Get home from church. This gives me an hour before I need to be anywhere else, and meant that I could watch the first 30 minutes of the Panthers-Indianapolis game. However, I spend that hour trying to get my VPN to play nicely with my router, which he is absolutely bound and determined NOT to do . I rebooted my computer, reset the router, stopped and started the modem, then repeated. Several times. Finally, at

There's nothing like a 2.5 hour play to let you catch your breath. By the time I got out the Panthers had gotten decimated by Indianapolis (nearly literally -- 30 something to 7), and my blood pressure was back down to it's normal range. I got home and a quick search on google told me that I probably needed to upgrade the firmware for my router. So I did that while I ate dinner (and let me just say, upgrading firmware is nowhere NEAR as much fun as it sounds!), and was FINALLY able to get to my work computer and finish up all my work stuff.
Yay. But, oh, my word, should a Sunday REALLY be this jam packed? It's my fault -- I knew I was ringing this Sunday, but still got Playmakers tickets. I could've done this work yesterday, but put it off until today. When am I going to learn to spread the fun out?!?
