Excel time logger VBScript redux

The newest version of the Excel time logger VBScript now asks you each day if you want to log your time. (It tells you what day of the week it is — originally, it was only going to ask on the weekend.) If not, it saves a file it uses as a semaphore. Each time it runs, it checks for that day's semaphore file. If it's there, it exits silently. If not, it logs your time. If found, it deletes the previous day's semaphore file, for neatness. The new version of the script is here. It's still licensed under the GPL, so knock yourself out. My original post — with a link to full instructions — is here.
