I'll be installing toilets for S. today, after which I will have a shower, and we will have a date!

I've been investigating various solutions to online security issues. I've used IPredator in the past, which is a service that anonymizes and encrypts one's browsing info. It was cheap but sometimes quite slow. Crytocloud, previously TorrentFreedom, seems to be a better approach. If you buy their longest contract, its about 50 cents a day for state-of-the-art anonymization and encryption, which little to no records being kept to connect one with any of one's online activity. As I become increasingly aware of how insecure the Internet really is, and how easy it is to be spied on, this kind of solution is looking increasingly good.

So if I talk you into coming up here for toilet conversion, do I get a date? ;)

Hope installation goes smoothly today. :D

Instead of smooth installation, I smashed my toe with an iron pipe. It didn't stop bleeding for over three hours.

Can you e-mail me your schedule to make trip planning easier?

I think I can do better:

here is my calendar http://www.brownbearsw.com/freecal/OdysseyHouse

the password "Odyssey" will allow you to view it ;)

cream colors events are just events, I have not committed to them yet.

Wow, great! So organized! I'm impressed.

I was hoping to visit you before we leave for Hawaii on the 23rd, but it looks like Dejuan is visiting next weekend. I see that you're picking up Peaches often during the week. Does that mean sleepovers won't work?

sleepovers work provided that if you wake up here Mon, Tues, Thurs, or Friday morning, we are both out of bed and dressed by 7:30am when my Monkey arrives (usually). He isn't here Wednesday morning, and I don't have them on the weekend, and they go home between 530 and 630 when their Dad picks them up on the days I do have them.

Does that answer the question? :)

I haven't totally given up trying to make this happen during the week, but it is looking like it might be a lot easier to simply plan for a weekend after I get back from Hawaii, which is happening during/after Thanksgiving.

FYI, in case it wasn't obvious; the whole calendar is color coded: cream are just events, but I haven't committed to them (usually recurring events), red are kinky obligations, green money, blue home/pet maintenance, navy guests, purple are me-specific things, pink involve Peaches, and yellow is Monkey or Monkey/Peaches. If you click on anything with a line under it, further info will pop up (or should).

Complicated, but it's been helping A LOT. :)

I <3 my brownbear calendar, and highly recommend them.
