the_rckThat hidden object game I was playing, Hidden Expedition: The Crown of Solomon, turns out to be buggy as hell. I hit a scene where the screen was almost completely white, just the hint button and map button and my possessions visible. I went to the game forum and discovered that this is a common problem with no easy fix and that there are at least two scenes later in the game that have the same problem. I've put in a support request. We'll see if it gives me any useful response. At the very least, I want my money back.
I've found a ride to soccer practice for Cordelia. She'll arrive half an hour late, but she will get there. The family who lives sort of near here will give her a ride home (but couldn't get her there). I was thinking I'd have to call a cab, put her in it and pay the driver up front. They do a fee based on how far one's going rather than charging based on how long the trip takes, so that would have been feasible. Of course, I have no idea if the cab company would have gone for it. They might not want to transport an eleven year old when it wasn't clear who was meeting her on the other end.
The roof work continues. They're pounding away up there. Cordelia complains that it's too noisy for her to work and that she doesn't feel safe going in and out of the house while they're working. She wants to have friends over, but she's not sure she can go get them safely. I don't think it will hurt her to have one day without visitors, but she may feel differently.
