Star Wars Stuff, Perspective on Numerous Levels, Cool Looking Hobbies, and (of course) Politics

I’ve spent far too long reading stuff and watching YouTube videos. Between that and hitting a meeting down in Silver Spring proper after work tonight, my “free time” has all but vanished, leaving me, once again, at the “Oh, crap, I should probably be going to sleep now-ish” point.

My “normal” sleep schedule really doesn’t fit well with the “normal” world. There’s really nothing close to normal about it. It rotates oddly if I’m left to my own devices. And, while I’ve found plenty of documented cases of variously odd natural sleep schedules. documentation doesn’t really help solve the problem of it not at all matching with a typical work schedule. (Let alone when anything else is going on.)

This has been the case for pretty much as long as I can remember.

And it really shows no signs of changing for the better. No matter how much I try to tweak it.

So, here’s the feed from today and the weekend. Enjoy it. I did. 🙂

Totally crazy day at the office. No real time for anything other than meetings and nose-to-the-grindstone work. Mostly due to projects falling off schedule… due to people getting us stuff late and technology conspiring against me.

Oh, and did I mention that I didn’t even come close to getting to sleep on time last night… in part because of a totally awesome thunderstorm that powered through the area? Fantastic lightning. Some of it was even green. Spooky cool.

Of course there was an extra-early meeting today. And I ended up working late just so I could actually cross something off of my list.

My brain is kind of fried and I’ve got one more day of this dog and pony show before the weekend hits.

Here’s what passes for the feed today…
