I live. Home safely after an emotionally draining weekend. As predicted, made our 6am flight on Saturday. Drove to Z & M’s house (in Brighton) to meet their 4 month old, D … as well as to say intelligent things like “my you’ve grown,” to their 2 year old, T. Drove back to Plymouth for . . . → Read More: Weekend Our all day meeting today was massively productive, despite each of us having to walk out and cool down at least once. There were also several brief profanity storms, and a couple of abortive attempts at fistfights. In other words, we all said what was on our minds. All technical discussions should be backed up . . . → Read More: Good day. Today went approximately as well as expected. I am now listening to the following, in an attempt to beat my brain into submission: * Stacy’s Mom (Fountains of Wayne) * My Humps (Black Eyed Peas) * Pretty Fly for a White Guy (Offspring) * My Band (D12) * I Hope You Die (Bloodhound Gang) I . . . → Read More: Grrrrrrrrrrrr Tomorrow, I will wake up at 6am, to leave my house by 6:40, so I can catch a train at 7:20.

Since I was scratching the obsessive compulsive itch, I also collapsed the ‘ole CD collection into six binders instead of 300-some plastic cases. . . . → Read More: Books Congratulations day, you get an A-plus! Pictures. . . . → Read More: Excellent day On the train, back from Boston. More accurately, the loser cruiser. This is the 11:55 train out of South Station. They barely even check tickets on this ride, they’re just happy you’re sedate. For my part, I am sedate. Went to Jake Ivory’s with capital_l and technolope and assorted of their friends. It was a . . . → Read More: good times Damn you, capital_l. This is only half done, and it’s all your fault. I have three full-on bookshelves still to attack, including fiction, cooking, and “large format.” |
