I’ve left my work computer at home a couple of times before, but yesterday I reached a whole new level of stupid by leaving it at my in-laws’ place in Madison. Thankfully, between a spare computer at work and a rather thorough online backup I was able to be productive for most of the day, but I still felt pretty dumb about it.

Lisa will be bringing it back to Minneapolis this weekend. At least I don’t have to make a return trip to pick it up.

It’s been an interesting evening to live on Fremont Avenue. With all the slush and ice on the road, a lot of people are having trouble getting their cars up the hill. I’ve seen a number of drivers give up and turn around, or, when they fail to do even that, back down the hill in reverse. I’m surprised no one has whacked a parked car yet.
