Welcome! 03/05/2016
Welcome, everyone, to the new 910CMX Community Forums. I'm still working on getting them running, so things may change. If you're a 910 Comic creator and need your forum recreated, let me know and I'll get on it right away. I'll do my best to make this new place as fun as the last one!

Morning news. They're panicking about the Zika virus again. Damned mosquitoes.

Meat loaf leftovers for breakfast.

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

Crystal Light Lemon Tea, with extra lemon and a bit of instant sassafras tea mixed in.

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.

French bistro music.

How the Universe Works on the Science Channel. They're talking about supermassive black holes.

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.

... that is, until someone slams into Graham Rahal's side and starts an 8-car pile-up.

5 hours ago, Scotty said:As opposed to you being here on the forums Prof?
Why, never! I would not do such things, yes?

Best wishes to your cat and yourselves, tOH. They're hard to lose, and I hope you don't have to lose yours.

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 ...

Woke up (9:00 a.m.) to an Aussie Rules Football replay of Gold Coast v Adelaide. Will be watching the IndyCar race at 11:30 CDT.

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.

The sound of my slightly ill wife sighing.

Bandit Patrol on Nat Geo Wild. At my wife's behest. I'm missing out on a Stars game.

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.
