According to Yahoo!, there are zero perfect brackets left in their online contest.

Steak fajita nachos from Taco Cabana. Mrs. Prof is pizzed at them for taking almost an hour to prepare her order. Good tasting nachos, nonetheless.

Leftovers consumed, music writing resumed for a while. Now trying to fix my Firefox profile while waiting for Mrs. Prof to return from her daytrip down to Austin.

Finished writing music. Considering going for more KFC leftovers.

The Texas Longhorns losing to Northern Iowa on a last-second three-point shot from mid-court. Hail Mary knocks 'em out of the tournament.

Had to switch up one of my anti-anxiety medication dosages a bit yesterday. Things were a bit tough early on (let's leave it at that), hence the change.
I take 4 lorazepam tablets a day. Usually, I go with one at breakfast, one at lunch, and two at bedtime. Yesterday, I went from 1/1/2 to 1/2/1. It helped.
Here's hoping I don't have a repeat today.

Getting ready to compose some music ... after I have just a bit of coffee (gotta let the KFC settle first).

The 12 Hours of Sebring IMSA race. Sort of. It's on in the background. I'm going to be working on music soon, so I won't be paying too much attention to it.
Go Panoz DeltaWing!

KFC Nashville Hot Chicken. Leftovers for breakfast.

A chopped brisket sandwich from Baker's Ribs in Garland. Not the best, but acceptable barbecue, especially for North Texas.
You've got to go to Austin, Llano, or Luling to get the real good stuff (Lockhart is overhyped).

Local news. Golf-ball-sized hail has been falling in the D/FW Metroplex, close to where my son lives.

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.

No repeat of the rough day over the weekend, thankfully, so no adjustment to my lorazepam schedule. However, I'm still running on 3-part days. Wound up staying awake until 1:00 a.m. Monday morning—three hours later, I was wide awake. It's now just past 5:00 a.m., and I'm still awake. Drinking some more lemon/sassafras tea to see if it helps.
If there's an upside, it's in how I've been able to stay at the music computer for good stretches of time. I can get an idea out without having to take a nap mid-stream. Mind you, I have to take a nap after I get the idea out, but you get the picture.
I don't want to start writing music at this hour, so I'm going to get something to munch, take a Benadryl, and hopefully crash out for the next several hours.
