I went to my office fairly early this morning to do some work. I have a couple of new-to-me doctors and I wanted to work on their reports while I was still pretty fresh (I tried yesterday afternoon and it was an unqualified disaster).

Before I get to the main part of this post, let me just be up front and say that any discussions of knitting are going to be few and far between for the next couple of weeks.
