Actual Work! Neat!

10:34 PM: There's nothing quite like having bashed your head against a problem for days, and then finding just the documentation or resource that you need, like the key word in a crossword puzzle. (Hmm. OK, I guess there are some things like it.) All at once all the disparate parts thread together, and you not only solve the original problem, you know how to do three or four other things that it would never have occured to you to even try to do. Then you walk around doing that bad funky-white-boy walk, thinking things like, "Yes, I am the god. I am."
It won't last 5 minutes past the next chunk of reality, but hey.
Oh! Oooh! Damn, I just thought of something else I can go do better now. Um, so quickly, Today, let's see. Today I am yet again tired of the "national press" writing about Ralph Nader purely as a spoiler. Also, we had M&Ms for Snack!® which was OK. I got my first contracting paycheck yesterday! whoo hoo! I forgot to say that. New ATM card came today. Have to call them from my apartment to activate it. So we'll see tomorrow if it's alive or not. Shrug. What else? Oh, I have a new Office Crush, I think. I don't work for her and there's nothing else terrifying or impossible about her, so I'm not sure if she qualifies.
OK, gotta go now.
Willfully blind self-indulgent nebbish or amusingly quirky old coot? And how bout that local sports team? Discuss among yourselves.

unreliable but it's all in good fun. Yep.
