laptop dithering ended

Laptop dithering has ended. The sheet batteries do not work for Little.

40 pages left on US. I keep waking up all wide awake at 5:30 and not getting up, which is, of course, foolish, because then I don’t want to get up until like 8. If I wake up at 5:30 tomorrow I shall endeavor to get up. Um! No real news today! (’cause, you know, usually what I have to say is earth-shattering in its importance.)
