Another weekend come and gone, and mostly I just slept. And read. And felt a lot more of a sense of accomplishment than I probably should have for the little bit of cleaning I did around the house. But at least something got done, and I apparently needed the sleep. People have been getting sick around the office, and so far I’ve avoided the worst of it, and I’ll keep telling myself that plenty of sleep is the reason. That’s a good reason, right?
When the weather warmed up again this weekend, it almost felt like we were past the worst of winter. I’m still expecting one really big snowfall, and maybe even another cold snap, but I guess being busy with work through the worst of winter has the benefit of keeping me from getting those mid-winter blahs. I am getting itchy to get out with my camera again one of these days, but in the mean time I’ve been pulling pictures from the archives and dressing them up for posting on flickr. There’s plenty of that to do through the rest of the cold, I’m sure.

Where are all the Gaelic speakers?
Apparently 25% of all folks in Ireland say they speak Irish. But when he tried to get around the country speaking only Irish, he wasn’t treated especially well.

- The New Yorker’s article on Capturing The Unicorn by way of digital imaging. A pretty cool, but lengthy read. [top]
- Sen. Dodd has introduced the Restoring the Constitution Act of 2007, trying to restore Habeas Corpus. Sounds like a pretty darned good idea. [flutterby]
