I covet your skull

incandescensLast night I wished for something involving to do at work that didn't involve checking the release documentation.
Today it was decided that we were going to resolve a problem with morphology coding by re-coding a number of concepts. Possibly a thousand or so. As fast as possible.
One of these days I will learn to be more careful about what I wish for.
Indulged myself after work by starting on a new quilt top that should come out as about six foot by six foot, my biggest attempt yet, and using some nice fabrics in blue and white that I'd been saving for a worthy project. We will see how it comes out.

"... You interest me very much, Mr. Holmes. I had hardly expected so dolichocephalic a skull or such well-marked supra-orbital development. Would you have any objection to my running my finger along your parietal fissure? A cast of your skull, sir, until the original is available, would be an ornament to any anthropological museum. It is not my intention to be fulsome, but I confess that I covet your skull."
Sherlock Holmes waved our strange visitor into a chair. "You are an enthusiast in your line of thought, I perceive, sir, as I am in mine," said he.
