Whenever I get ready for a trip, i spend the night before staying up WAY too late doing laundry, tidying up the house and getting work done. Tonight is no different. I leave for the airport in 3 hours. Argh. Not packed yet, but most everything is clean and ready in a pile on the…

Dang, January is going by quickly. I have a ton of things to have done absolutely-no-excuses by the end of the month. Work stuff, that is. I’ve no doubts that our office can handle it. I’m just prepping myself for the midnight oil that will have to be burned in order to get things wrapped…

At 12:40 a.m. I decided I wanted a beer. So I went downtown to the bar and sat by myself for a while and nursed a good Bass Ale. They were playing music videos on the big projectiion TV and that kept my attention pretty well. As the quiet sort, I didn’t think any conversations…

Got to work a little late after having a whale of a time getting to sleep. Had a good meeting though with one of our fun clients, and touched base with an old colleague who helped breathe life into some design concepts that were stagnating. A dinner out at P.F. Changs and I left my…

I should’ve kept myself goin after work and stayed up til midnight like a good chap to keep my sleep cycle in check.

Just been working on my friend’s website today. Kinda fun. Otherwise, just a quiet day.

I have been doing this for a week, and it’s really dumb, yet even in my under-the-weather-ness, it feels good to do. Before I go to bed, I will always: – wash my face, thoroughly – brush my teeth (The Sonicare Dave got me is a godsend) and – do 10 pushups. Ten measly pushups.…

Today was a nice day. I sat on my couch with portable computer resting comfortably on a padded lapdesk my mom and brother got me for my birthday, tapped into the ‘net with a speedy wireless connection. With legs propped up on the coffee table, my tasks were laid out before me in a convenient…

Tonight marks the end, truly, of 2002. All the vacation days squandered over the holidays have run out. Of course, I’ve spent the last week battling the flu, perhaps I could count those as sick days and regain some free time in ’03. Wallowing in misery and sleeping most of the day hasn’t been all…
