Up Late
posted by Jen | 10:06 AM
I started reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince yesterday at about 3pm. I was finished at about 2am. Loved it. Although there was something of a sensation of rushing headlong towards a brick wall towards the end. Maybe Ms. Rowling intended that.
Didn't get much else done this weekend. Decided to trash the washing machine since the part Gavin thinks it needs would cost us $150 and we're pretty sure that this wouldn't fix everything that was wrong with the machine. So, I need to research new machines this week. I've got to say that my confidence in Whirlpool workmanship is a bit deflated after this experience. Which kind of sucks since they're supposed to be the high end.
Officially, the Shuttle launch is No-Earlier-Than Friday. As far as I am aware, we still don't know what's causing the problem. :( This is not only frustrating from a professional perspective, but is wreaking havoc with my vacation planning. I really want to go to Wyoming for Caroline's 1st birthday, but I can't buy plane tickets until we are launched or definately delayed. *sigh*

Ditto on the vacation planning.. especially now that they are talking as late as August 4... I mean, if they do that, well, I won't get any vacation in August at all!
Welcome to the world of flight control, Becca!
I thought July 31 was the latest?
If they use ET hand-held photography instead of umbilical well photography, they can extend the window until Aug 4. It's just an option they may look at if it slips out to the end of the window.
