Corrective wife, the sitter and I attended a munch last night -- a group of 30 or so people with interests similar to those mentioned in this journal. We met some very nice people (and had a lovely dinner!).
The little woman is off on a business trip next week and the sitter laid out the rules for me -- in front of several people with big ears! One hour of television a day, 45 minutes of Internet time a day, work on my physical fitness routine, and be prepared for a heavy dose of punishment writing -- 550 lines to keep me occupied during the evenings. I was blushing nine shades of red by the time the sitter had spelled it all out for me, and mentioned that if I was caught doing anything forbidden, I would regret it more than I have ever regretted anything in my life -- she would tan my hide until I couldn't sit for weeks.
So I want to assure her and corrective wife -- I will be good, really I will. And, I know the sitter can drop in at any moment, or drive by after my early bedtime looking for lights on (she does this sometimes). And of course when she comes over to sit me, she will expect a pile of completed handwritten lines, so the pen will control me.
I will update this again as the week goes by.
