A reminder to everyone to take a few minutes today, be it at 11:11 or later, after the crowds have gone away to think for a few minutes about all the horrible things that have happened in the wars from past and present and be truely thankful that we don’t have to go through that […]

Last night I was about ready to go to bed around midnight-ish, not early, though still with the potential for up to 7 and a half hours of sleep, a bit more than the rest of the week. Anyway, I was finishing up my contract website work and noticed that something was wonky with a

I must be overloading on caffiene or something, last night I went to bed at midnight (latest consulting project is taking forever) and couldn’t sleep. Got back up at a bit before 1am to surf until I was tired. Back to bed at 1:30 or so but no sleep came…. Not sure when the sandman

The last few days have been nuts sleep wise… up at 6 or 7 and bed at 12 or 1:30 or later…. Last night (technically the night before last, friday) was the last day of a class I’ve been doing, and there was a big grad event that lasted all day. The first part of

Back from my mini-vacation, alive and well, and only a little sunburnt. Stories and pics soon, but right now I’m on about 4.5 hours of sleep (combination of a late flight last night that was delayed because “someone broke the plane”), so I’ll hold off till tomorrow 🙂
