Sunday 07/14/2024
Still enjoying the gout, although it is improving, or at least not getting worse. I can walk without a limp if I walk slowly. Did the usual Sunday morning things, although the NYT big puzzle had a bunch of really stupid puns that I couldn’t figure out, but I give myself a pass for not finishing it because they were so stupid. (How stupid? The puns were all on state names, and one I remember, the clue was “Girl is a good runner”. Answer? Missiszippy. Get it? “Miss is zippy”? That one almost made sense, the other 5 or 6 were worse.)
After lunch went down to CHM to lead a custom tour for a group of 30 teens from, I think, China? Big group, too big really, so right from the start I encouraged them to wander off and explore, and many did. For the core group who sort of stayed by me I did a really fast round, way less intense or detailed than my usual 60-minute-plus tour. Just Tour Lite, done in 45 minutes, pointed them to the retro games exhibit, and done.
Felt quite tired after. Think I might be aging a little.
