I got to work late this morning because there was an accident in Agawam, and I had no idea where I was going (well, an idea, but nothing concrete - I ended up going by Six Flags!). I saw a dump truck laying on its side and dirt spilled out, but the road was closed and I didn't get a good look. Turns out that the truck hit a kid on a bike. *shudder*

When I got here, I found out that I was late for a meeting I had forgotten completely about, and I was getting a spiffy new flatscreen monitor installed. It sure is spiffy, too, but I'm still getting used to it. It stretches everything out to the edges, and it appears kind of concave (or is that convex? I can never remember which is which). Colors look really bright, though; I'm looking forward to seeing what my photos look like on it.

It looks like Hanna will be hitting us here in MA this Saturday. I wonder if our volunteer gig at the farm will get postponed? My coworker's daughter is getting married, outdoors of course, in Woods Hole on Saturday. They'd better wear boots!

Easy way to remember concave/convex: concave goes in the way a cave does

Ah! That's very helpful. :)

Oh man, too bad about the kid...

Yay, your coworker's daughter and her fiance sure had better wear boots!

I just read an update, and it seems that the kid hit the truck, which swerved to miss him, hence the laying sideways on the road. It did seem to be an odd place for something like that to happen. I hope everyone's OK.

Ugh on all counts...

OMG... ONOZ...

Re: the farm gig, in terms of postponed, postponed to next year is more likely than to another time this season, because the growing season is nearly over and our group has been really difficult to schedule (always!). The veggies are still there and need to be picked, though... I suppose I could ask firespirit1 whether there are any individual opportunities to help out in the remainder of this year; she's over there pretty much most of the time. More on email.
