          	Today marks the start of my final five-day work week in 
          2020. It was exceptionally hectic and chaotic, as if to 
          commemorate the occasion. I was so tired by the end of the 
          workday, I was fighting sleep on the way home. Things are lined 
          up pretty similarly for the rest of the week. I will have earned 
          the shorter weeks by the time they get here.
          
          	Not much going on today. The Digital Mavica parts appear to 
          be lost in the post, disappearing somewhere in California on the 
          5th, according to the tracking data. The last update I received 
          of any kind was on the 9th, when they sent a message saying the 
          package would be arriving late (the original estimated time of 
          arrival was the 8th). I think I'm almost ready to start on the 
          Sioux server project, but I will need to order a couple of small 
          parts that I have run out of - switches, buttons, tiny heatsink 
          fans, things like that. Given the current congestion of the USPS 
          ordering even more stuff makes me nervous, so I'm kind of stuck 
          for now. Perhaps it's a sign I should take the next few days 
          easy.
