I'm off to New Hampshire for vacation. I've finally trudged through deleting or filing +/- 70 non-spam e-mails. I've paid the bills. I've even updated my phone list. Those on the CNN and summerspam lists will see evidence of my work this evening.

I figured I would tell a little bicycling story that kingramsay might appreciate. He already knows about the ( Read more... )

This is sort of a comment response to sozepiggytails and mdsteele47. sozepiggytails said: This is what NetHack is for, you know. Sleep is for the weak and stuff.

and mdsteele47 said: The more I seem to tell my body that lately, the more often it finds passive-aggressive ways to remind me that I'm not 20-anything anymore...I hate growing old, not up. That hasn't, thankfully, I hope, happened yet ( Read more... )

I'm up too late after having ridden my bike back from a BBQ up in Valley Falls. I'm guessing that's about 25 miles. I'm waiting for my slowest computer, at this point a P166, to turn over a SETI@Home work unit. Why? Because I'm procrastinating about going to bed. Probably a bad thing. Allright. I'll go to bed.

Oof. I did a fun, dumb thing tonight. I watched Sin City with iccubis, vfrride, and others. Now I am totally pumped and can't sleep. Oh, well.

Wow. I had a good day. My stomach hurts a bit from the party last night (beer + wine + Doritos = stinky poo + stomach upset). I was woken by a howling child this morning at about 7:30, which is not unusual for a weekend. It was somewhat unpleasant having only gone to bed after 1am ( Read more... )

Well, iccubis had is 31st birthday party last night. I think it came off quite well. I hung out with a bunch of folks, more LJ users than I care to enumerate here. So thank you all who came.
