Random link o' the day: The REAL reason US West sucks so much

Happy Thursday, everyone. Are we having fun yet? That's what I thought. Now. Repeat after me: CDE is a piece of shit. Go ahead... you'll feel better. I did. SunHelp is my best friend, but CDE still sucks overripe watermelons through a coffee straw. Truly. Y'all, Enlightenment is slim and trim compared to the bloated beast that is CDE.

Anyway.

I am tired. I'm updating because I'm trying to get back in the habit of getting an entry up every couple of days. Wouldn't that be an idea? I'm enough of a narcissist to think that y'all, my loving fans, would like to see this place updated more than once a week. So I sit here at midnight, in front of my keyboard, debating whether or not to fix myself some tomato soup before I go to sleep.

I have a feeling that even thought I'm pretty exhausted, I'm not going to be able to sleep. I've gotten back into a really bad habit of staying up all night and sleeping pretty late; last night I didn't drift off til around 6 AM. My brain won't turn off. Downtime is important to process things through... when you're working 55 hours a week, you don't get much of that. The only time I get that any more is after I go to bed. When you start thinking too much in the middle of the night, you get prone to dragons under the bed. Southerners call it night sickness. When everything you try to avoid thinking about during the day comes crowding in on top of your head...

I think I'm going to have that tomato soup.
