Not much to blog about today. It’s been a very busy day. Fortunately I was productive during most of that time despite spending so much of it on the phone. I did have to devote 2.5 hours of my home life to the day job this evening but I dulled that pain with wine.
I also mailed my resume off to someone who asked for it. That was nice. It’s always nice to be wanted.

This one is real, folks. There’s a one-celled organism out there that likes to enter through your nostrils, swim up to your brain and feed on the gray matter until you die. That’s not Stephen King or Clive Barker – this one is real. Scary, real life stuff. It’s a good thing I stopped swimming in lakes at around 8 years old!
