Latest cat report is that she is aggressively demanding to be pet.

Got today's cat pic. Still on the train.

Got 3 cat pictures today, but I can't tell the difference between the last 2.

Train breakfast was not as good as train dinner. Coffee was a little better than expected.

Taking the top bunk. I don't quite bend in the right ways to get situated there and would appreciate easier access to a power outlet.

Had a nice train dinner.

Train breakfast is early, but if I sleep through it I snagged the 2 bagels that weren't going to be good when I get back so I could eat those.

I'm on another train

I'm on a train.

Dropped the cat off with my sister. This was not the cat's plan for the evening.

There is a bit more blend reworking needed before I leave on vacation than initially anticipated.

The cat would like her daily 36 hours of cuddles now please.

oh, Playstation stars is back on. looks like it counted all the trophies I got in the past month+ it's been down.

While I was in there I also added some other related features that would have been nice to have on a few occasions.

Adding some new functionality to the shop's web site on the staff facing side of things. Since USPS is threatening to get rid of the interface we use to ship orders that don't come in through the web site and the replacement is terrible, I'm adding a page where staff can just get shipping quotes and generate labels through our own site instead. That's shaping up to be faster and simpler for staff than even USPS's old thing since it's tailored exactly to my company's needs.

Today's work seems to be all phone calls and emails and similar. Fortunately I have other staff who can do the production line work that I'd rather be doing and the communications side of things needed doing.

I've been trying to spread out the vacation related purchases, but I think I've now covered everything the cat will need so my sister shouldn't have to buy anything for the cat while I'm out of town. Also started on the supply of travel snacks, but I'll want a little more variety on those.

This morning the cat let it be known that she didn't want the food in her bowl. She wanted me to open the new bag of food instead.
