Don't leave a message

This morning I had a major accomplishment.  I stopped by an office for 5 minutes to ask something I’d been trying for months to find out.  I’d called the office at least a couple of dozen times, but they’d always say to “call back” in a few minutes, in the afternoon, tomorrow, or some other vague time because the technician wasn’t there.  Offices here just don’t take messages.  They tell you to call again later.  It can be quite a pain, since many people aren’t at their desks much of the time.  So this was one of those minor victories that counts for a lot.

It’s December.  The temperature has warmed up to above freezing during the days, after at least a week or two of freezing cold temperatures and snow in late November.  This has been a big relief, and the forecast calls for more of this “warm” weather.
