620 words. Half what I did the other day. And I'm not quite done with the chapter, but I'm getting close. But still, I've got a bad cold, a kid with an ear infection, another kid who I had to take for a preschool checkup (did you know that they routinely give meningitis and Lyme disease vaccinations here? I wonder why we don't in the States. And why we give chicken pox shots and they don't.) And my computer has crashed about five times, just when things started getting interesting.

All things considered, it's not bad. The kids are playing, not a lot of homework, and I'm a ready target for the magic tricks my ten-year-old is learning. DH picked up a really good book that teaches "real" tricks, and he's getting pretty good.

The final count for the DNA typing, according to the kindergarten (whose workers helped run the thing) is 3200. Cool, huh? Six weeks to get the results, and it looks like DKMS (Deutsche Knochenmark organization) ran another such event for someone else on the same day, and those samples will all go in the same pot for matching. This could mean up to 3200 people get a cure and a happy ending.
