I did the shopping when I wasn't needed. That's been finished. There haven't been any security breaches lately, but whoever made coffee late last night left the coffeemaker plugged in, which is a fire hazard.

I'm going out tonight. I've secured the premises as best as possible, and will be back before sunrise. There's an empty studio [ERROR: does not pertain to mission, unnecessary]

I was told that it may be beneficial for me to begin typing my reports into the computer rather than keeping them to myself. I will use this "journal" for that purpose.

Errands included grocery shopping and laundry. The washing machine has something wrong with it; I'll fix it later today, when the noise won't wake anyone.

Security is at 99.99% (.01% excluded for the purposes of acknowledging imperfect detection ability, not per breach in security systems or fields). I will do at least one more walk of the perimeter before dawn.

There is a holiday in four days. It hasn't been explained to me very clearly.

It has something to do with a tree.
