Anyone out there either a professional map-maker or gifted amateur willing to work for a small fee and loads of glory (aka Your Name In the Credits)? Please contact me off-list via e-mail. It's actually a pretty simple job, I suspect, but I need it done both Right and Well... (being a Professional means acknowledging that there are things you don't have time/energy/talent to do yourself and finding someone who does!)
And under the heading of: You're Always A Kid to your Parents...
My folks arrived at the apartment this morning, not entirely unannounced (they asked yesterday if they could stop by). My dad immediately went hands-on with the cranky a/c unit. My mom [who had brought a book she claimed she was going to read while my dad worked] immediately starting doing all the sorting-and-putting-away I haven't gotten to in the past few days of heavy writing. They both paid much attention to Boomerang, who was feeling Needy. I was told in no uncertain terms to keep writing. And then they fed me Chinese food, wished me bon voyage, and left me to my work.
Not at Goal yet. But progressing, yes....

Having someone with basic level stuff electrical knowledge (and knowing when to call in the pros) is a blessing, right up there with the computer-guy. Now, if we only had a plumber in the family...
