Does anyone have any clue as to why a copy of Firefox wouldn't load the correct fonts on a WordPress page? My blog looks awfully silly on my laptop's copy of Firefox, but not on my music machine's copy. It also doesn't show any problems under Opera or Chrome. Is there some about:config setting I should tweak to get it to show properly? IMHO, Firefox 45 is a piece of [REDACTED]. Please help if you can.

Still having 3-part days. Crapped out around 6:30 p.m. tonight. I was out so hard that I didn't even hear her come home temporarily from her cat-trapping duties at 7:15 p.m. I was back up around 8:30 p.m. or so. I think I'm going to give up on the Ambien CR. It's obviously not doing any good anymore. Anyone have any suggestions? What's that new one that they're advertising on TV? The one that has the fuzzy avatars for "sleep" and "wake" cycles—maybe I should talk to my doctor about that, if I can get the name of it. -

You kidding? I got myself a 32 ounce ceramic mug. With University of Texas at Austin branding, no less. It's wider at the base than any of my "thirstystone" coasters. -

Watching as Arch Linux runs "post-transaction hooks" after a Pacman -Syu. Seems to be rebuilding a Haskell index ... whoop, it just finished.

Forcing myself to stay awake longer tonight/this morning. Maybe that'll let me sleep for a longer period without needing an afternoon nap. Planning on plenty of coffee. Arch Linux is keeping me company. Haven't updated it in a week or so. It's got 161 updates to install, including an update to Linux itself. -

Up at 3:30 a.m. Decided to back up my music system (I use Clonezilla). Wish it'd let me set up all three drives at one go. Anyway, the cycle of middle-of-the-night wakeups continues, usually after a really weird dream. I'm pretty sure my medicines are in charge of me now. Here's the latest daily scenario: 8:00 a.m.: Wake up, drink coffee, eat, take pills, try to work on music (or writing, as the case may be). Lose track of time. 2:00 p.m.: If my morning medicines defeated the coffee, take my noontime medicines. 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m.: Succumb to loss of consciousness from effects of noontime meds and crash for a couple of hours on the sofa. 6:00 p.m. or so: Wake up, try to get more done. 9:00 p.m.: Take nighttime medicines. Fall asleep by 11:00. 3:30 a.m.: Wake up for an hour or two, take Benadryl. Distract myself with the computer until I crash out again. In short, I've gone from a two-segment day (day and night) to a three-segment day (Morning, Evening, Post-Midnight). I feel like I'm living in the land of the siesta. Quite confusing. -
Had currywurst for the first time today. Bought some Knorr mix and some Deutschlander sausages from a local import store and cooked it up. Not bad—reminiscent of chili dogs.

Now hearing the sound of a better-feeling Mrs. Prof listening to something on her computer. She uses that thing for nefarious ends, I tell you ...

Hummus taco was good. Soft flour tortilla an acceptable substitute for naan or pita. Woke up around 7:30 a.m. and blasted into my music writing, staying there until after 2:00 p.m. Forgot to take my morning and noon pills as a result. Crashed hard afterward, not waking up until nearly 7:30 p.m. Gut cramps today, too. Probably from the metformin. -
