My writing time got hijacked by a couple of family engagements, so I only got about half of the typing done.
Also, I would like to lodge a complaint regarding violation of the invisible walls around my writing desk which is plonked in the open at one end of our family room.
Wouldn't one think, if a person is typing away and studying one's notes with a confused look on her face, an intruder would cough quietly and hover at a respectful distance, and if the confused typist does not respond, the intruder would intuit that Now Is Not a Good Time, and go away? As opposed to asking if the typist has seen the intruder's glasses? Or where the typist has put the address of the fellow from whom the intruder is buying a Foosball table? Or talking about taking down the Halloween decorations? Or what time the typist's nephew's going away gathering begins? And what, exactly, is the address of the nephew's going away gathering?

Yes. That's what I thought.
