One tired puppy
I’m just totally exhausted and I’m not sure why. Driving home Saturday and driving back Sunday night didn’t help (4 hours one way.) On Monday, I totally slacked and read a good chunk of “Dune.” Tuesday is my Living Hell day. Conference calls from 11 am to 6 pm with a 1 hour break. On top of that, I had a client maintenance window beginning at 9 pm, lasting 1 hour and another at midnight, lasting another hour. I hate Tuesdays.
But, life is good in other ways. On Monday, I drove to Gander Mountain and picked up another side arm. This time, a replica 1851 Navy revolver (black powder) along with all the necessary gear like lead shot, wadding, Pyrodex charges, percussion caps, etc. While black powder take a lot more to load and clean, there’s just that nostalgia about them, kind of like shaving with a straight razor. Now I gotta find a shooting range that permits black powder guns (most indoor ranges prohibit them due to the excessive smoke.)
I need to launch a site where I can complain endlessly about where Web 2.0 is going, in a tongue-in-cheek fashion. Seriously, I get more and more annoyed with all the new crap coming out for developing Web 2.0 sites…and that’s all it is, crap. There’s nothing new about all this. What’s worse, management eats it up. Spends gobs of money on shit that doesn’t prove to be any more efficient than technology from 15 years ago. I’ll bitch more about this later…for now, I’m tired and heading to bed.
