Drinking (Yes/No) Yes (20/23)

Paid work - Retired.

Creative work - finished the lakeside animation, then started and completed the "forest path" clip.  Then remembered I left something out of the lakeside and fixed that.  Going through foliage pictures for the next scene.

In the interim - Melissa called, apparently things are not going well at the State.  She wanted to make sure I was aware.  Nice of her.  I wished her well.
