i went back to the end of october, 2017 because i wanted a better understanding of the end of the last productive phase of reconstruction and decided i need to have the master document open to make this worthwhile, which is simply impossible to open in the cloud. even if i can't reconstruct anything that's missing, i need to be archiving as i go.

so, i'm not going to get to the alter-reality. in fact, i'm not going to get close, and that's a problem. so, i'm going to spend a few hours today skipping forwards before i start rebuilding the pc. if i can build a plan for next week, that's some progress.

i called the urologist in toronto, but he's closed on fridays.

there's a huge amount of data here and it's clearly taking me some time to get my head around it, but i'm getting there.

so, this week was far less productive than i'd like, but at least i ate well and at least i'm getting a grasp on the size of the task in front of me, as i've let this build up far too far.
