I’ve nearly convinced myself of a way to reclaim lost time that I’ve been complaining about lately. I’m not 100% certain I can go through with it yet, and it is with some degree of trepidation that I make the decision, but I have nearly decided and so I might as well spell it out…
After an incredibly lazy day, I finally got around to writing some thank you notes for gifts I received for my birthday. It gave me the chance to make use of the new stationary that Jen made for me for the holidays. I managed to get through 7 thank you notes and I will get…
I have found that as I get older, my memory gets worse, or my brain plays more and more stupid memory tricks on me. Lately, I have found it more difficult to remember a word that I want to use, although I know it’s meaning perfectly and even have an idea of what letter it…

I’m done with work for the day, but hanging around until happy hour, which will begin around 5:30, so I have some time to kill. I talked to Doug on the phone earlier today and it was good to hear from him. He sounded like he was as ready to get out of the office…

It’s unusual for it to be 1:25 PM on a Friday and to not have heard a peep out of strausmouse by now. It makes me wonder if, perhaps, the baby is on it’s way…?
I did some spring cleaning at work today, closing out about 50 issues open under my name in our support tracking system. These are issues that get tracked through our helpdesk for software that my team has developed and it can be incredibly annoying to maintain these and follow up with them (and ironically, I…
I met a friend for drinks last night so that I didn’t even head home until 8 PM and didn’t get home until 9 PM. That’s okay though, because I still managed to get into bed by 9:30 so I got a decent night’s sleep. I talked to jen_ashlock yesterday and almost decided to go…
I had my last workout with Bernard this afternoon–at least the last one for a while. I’ve gotten my routine down. I’ve learned all of the machine and free-weights. I may work with him again toward the end of the summer, but I’m going solo for now. Naturally, it was one of my toughest workouts…
