I slept fairly solidly, except for a 5am wakeup, which fortunately only lasted for an hour.
My nose is giving me grief, in that the inside of the left nostril is raw and annoyed.
My left deltoid muscle is indignant at its rough treatment, and is only this evening beginning to subside into a lower level of crankiness (still not worse than the day after moving a bunch of boxes). The injection site has a small red mark, and skin irritation from the bandaid. A line of three small and nearly invisible welts popped up along an awkward crevice, which just as well could also be attributed to any small amount of dampness and friction, which are also a strong possibility.
Belovedest has trained Castle Heterodyne on my attention phrase for it, which is also "Castle, Awaken!" which leaves just Alex of the immediate household members who hasn't yet got a voice sample to rouse the beast. I have not succeeded in getting it to respond to "Casserole bacon!", but did get a gratifying hit from "Asshole, awaken!"
My bright idea of installing a Roomba safeword has so far failed to get helpful results. My idea was to set "StoppitStoppitStoppitStoppit!" as an attention phrase that also pauses the Roomba, but a) Belovedest is having trouble getting the Roomba to do anything but start, and b) apparently you cannot do an attention phrase that is itself an action, you must get attention first and then emit coherent dictionary words. Belovedest's current idea is to have me wake the assistant and only then say the stopword. Which, again, must be coherent dictionary words recognized by the assistant, from another room, while a roomba is charging my feet and tickling. (Several Scotsmen in an elevator swear at this juncture.)
Once they get the command working, we'll see how it actually performs under real world conditions.
