Yesterday went pretty well, I think. I did updates for a couple clients, and handled almost all of the administrative work I needed to get done for the day. The thunderstorms that rolled through in the morning and evening didn’t really disturb the work, and I mostly ignored the fact that it was brutally hot out there. There are a few outdoor projects I want to get done soon, but it looks like tomorrow we’ll see a break from the humidity, and if today goes as well as yesterday did, I should be able to get to them tomorrow afternoon.
So why is my mood a bit off this morning? I’m not sure, and the more I think about it, the more I convince myself I should be feeling pretty good about things. I’ve got work to keep me busy for a couple days, and leads on some more. It’s not enough that I can completely relax, but it is enough that I don’t have to sweat where next month’s mortgage payment is going to come from. That’s just about perfect, actually, since it means I’ll stay on my toes in the hunt for more work. So why the malaise? I’m just not sure, but I guess the best thing to do is just keep plugging along and let it sort itself out.
- Joan Collins said that Britain [is] Destroying Itself From Within. And I agree with her. Spooky. [vodkapundit]
- Congress has added Another month of daylight savings time to the calendar. We’ll all be more productive now because there’ll be more sunshine, right? Well hey, at least it’ll be a little extra work as programmers change a couple lines of code and ship updates. And there’ll be all those extra VCR sales. It’s good for the economy, I tell ya. [fark!]
- Talking about Minnesota’s rules for what judges can say in elections, Mitch says The Whole System’s Out of Order, but points out a hopeful change in the rules. It’ll be interesting to see what it brings in the next round of elections. [mitch]
- jr’s looking for a Vacuum that doesn’t suck. Or does. Er. Oh, just go read it if you can’t figure out what I mean. Maybe you’ll have a suggestion to help him out. [jr]
- Meanwhile, Dan’s looking for an operating system that doesn’t suck. Well, he’s found one, but is stuck using something suckier. At least it’s an amusing rant. [flutterby]
