Blue Belt Your skills are adequate from managing day-to-day life as a MT-Do, but you still have much to learn. Take the MT-Do test I might have ranked higher if I had installed MT all by myself, or if I had actually made modifications to the program (what, I can’t even figure out how the macro thingy works unless I can see how someone else did it and adapt). But glee! I’m not a white belt. There’s consolation.

I knew I spoke too soon. The lawn blimps are back. There’s also an illuminated flag-thing hanging in front of the garage that’s red, white and blue Christmas lights in some sort of plastic grid.

We’re going to hold it on the incredibly large and expensive-to-maintain lawn, which is ideal for this kind of event, since it’s construction-grade sod from the 60’s. And now I’d better get out of here. Big party piece for the choir, and we’re short-handed (or voiced) this week.
