Moving around

4 hours writing, page count = 204

This includes time on Friday and today.

Incorporating the new data has required moving some other stuff around in Chapter 1, but it's been useful. After playing out how the measures of security-force configuration worked including population data, I'm satisfied that my comparative framework I'm going to send the chapter out for feedback tomorrow in advance of next week's seminar.

In other news, I ran last week for the first time in five months. All those weeks of physical therapy on my heel and shins (three hours a day including travel time, twice per week) have paid off. It felt great to run again. I'm starting off easy for the first few weeks, on doctor's orders, and am still going to PT in case anything flares up. First three times, nothing so far....

The next three weeks are going to be interesting. This week, I'll be in Minnesota Tuesday through Friday morning; a foundation out there invited me to participate in a strategic planning "design lab." Then on Friday, I meet with the interim executive director at the job for which I'm applying for the permanent ED position. Then, the actual interview takes place next Monday. The next day, Tuesday the 15th, I travel to Berkeley. I get back home Saturday the 19th. The following Wednesday the 23rd, we go to New Orleans for Jazz Fest, returning Monday the 28th. All that to say, my posting will be sporadic this month, and I'll be playing it by ear as far as monitoring. I'll post again tomorrow, and then again on the 16th after my seminar presentation.
