I know what you mean, sort of. I've had a 20 inch Raster Ops in the office here for six or seven years. The only reason it's still here and still hooked up is probably because I don't want to pick it up again.

But Pat asked for it today, so out it goes. Then it's his problem. I might have hooked it up to one of the new machines but it seems I've lost the IBM-type cable for it; it's hooked up to a Macintosh now. The damn thing is so old that I don't think I could find a PC cable for it now; Raster Ops was taken over by Sony, I think, and those parts are probably long gone. It's a shame, though. Monitors like this are really made to last.

Patients aren't doing so hot. Liable to lose one soon, it appears. Hard to say, though. They bounce back suddenly; or at least that's what they have been doing up until now. My mother seems to do better when I am around to see her more, but I can't see as much as she needs me to. So she is in a gradual decline.

J's mother, on the other hand, is fading quickly. J is not taking it well at all.

Well, perhaps I'll catch you tomorrow. Depends on what kind of fire drill we have.
