I just got an email from my friend who live south of Christchurch saying the death toll from the earthquake is so far more than 400. He says he and his wife have been glued to the TV watching. The NZ websites I find have the death toll at 65 but it's easy to understand how if you were so close to it, you could get caught up in the drama and exaggerate to convey the devastation. He did say that the number was unconfirmed. No matter - it's all just horrible.

I am pretty much off work duty today after 9. And that may well be the case until about next Tuesday. They froze our database for an update that was to happen today and then pushed it a week but kept the freeze. This also pushes back the new project. Oh well. I intend to enjoy the time off, thank you very much.

After 9, I'll do the gym. I'm also thinking of making a batch of breakfast burritos for the freezer. I can get tortillas in the International District where I can also get a quite yummy lunch. This is a plan coming together.

My brother sent me the specs on some wifi only Android tablets. This, of course, set off my New Toy! trigger. I did not know there were any wifi only tablets out there in the new batch. I had thought I wanted a Windows one but am now rethinking that...

The first broadcast baseball game of the year is on Sunday afternoon. I'm ready.

it is terrible, some ghastly stories coming through - everyone agrees we are looking at a death toll in the 100s, but just how many is unclear.
