Optimum Offline

Cablevision has really been sucking it up lately. Since Monday, my cable modem has been offline for 10 – 12 hour periods at least four times, including today. I realized how dependant I’ve become on always-on Internet access.

10 years already?

One of my favorite sites turns 10 years old (though I’ve only known about it for about 2 years now). It’s hard to believe how quickly time passes.

This had me do a look up on some of my web domains, and I realized I’ve had sandsmg.com since 1998 and cdymek.com since 2002.

Jet Lagged

The real jet lag never kicks in until the second day I’m back. That’s when my body decides that it’s a good idea to go to bed at 7 pm and wake up at 4 am. I’m now in my third morning of having spontaneously arising at 4:30, only to toss and turn until giving in and waking up sometime between 7 and 8.

On the flip side, I did finally shave. And it felt so freakin’ good.
