Let's see --

Found out yesterday that a friend will take my Time-Life photography books and a few other photography books -- but I can't transfer them until Saturday. (Last fall he took some miscellaneous camera culch off my hands -- and gave me a Weston Master II light meter.

Also got rid of several videotapes and two full tubes of toothpaste that I discovered I have an allergy to some ingredient hidden in them.

Physical therapy was painful yesterday -- not so much the exercises on the machines, but the therapist stretching the arm. Not just me -- the weather was changing so my shoulder felt as if it were encased in a very tight elastic girdle and that layers of muscle would "stick" as they pulled away from each other. Barometric pressure settled down for awhile later, so the discomfort went away. Nowhere near the weather-related pain of this past winter.

Came home and started rearranging the tape/CD player and the tapes (and some CDs) in my office. Got rid of the old self-destructing tape holder, too. De-accessioned the old tape player and it made its way to the car, but that stuff won't go away until probably Saturday morning.

Discovered (in the guest room closet) some clothes that will be more appropriate for my new job than at previous ones. Sometimes it's good to hang on to things for a few years and not be totally ruthless.

With my new schedule, I think I'll be able to work on some of the paper pollution here around the computer before I head in to work. At least, that's my plan!
