Up surprisingly early. Headed to the bus stop a full 20 minutes early, only to remember that the bus I wanted to catch was nixed in the last transit cuts. Waited an extra 20 minutes.
More phone calls with vendor and customer regarding audio work. Added some instrumentation that should make control line noise more visible in a scope or logic analyzer. Managed to work on some of my project backlog while waiting for test results (still pending).
Picked up my bike on the way home from work. Rides pretty nicely now with new chain and brake pads.
Emily made a great stir-fry dinner then we took a long bike ride around town. We stopped by the rotting corpse of the Eastside Borders where Emily spotted more than her fair share of zombie- and monster-related books (including Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters!). Picked those up at a steep discount, then ran over to Oh Yeah! ice cream for a quick dessert.
Up early, hopped on a 61 to make a quick detour at Pitt.
Tried once again to get information about the Order of the Engineer ceremony. Was given a name but the person in question was conveniently not in the office at the time. Sent an email, no response yet.
Made little progress with the audio driver. I’m getting the feeling that I am too reluctant to ignore documentation when it doesn’t match reality. Tomorrow my plan is to print out said documentation then proceed to burn it and ignore it.
Dinner at Elbow Room in Shadyside with the Foodburgh Meetup. Had a pretty good turkey burger with onions soaked in hefeweizen along with some sweet potato fries and washed it all down with Flying Dog Garde Dog.
Walked with Emily over to Oh Yeah! for some ice cream, then headed home.
