My IBS flare up has mostly calmed down. The erratic nature of the ailment is really annoying because a food that I was perfectly fine with a few months ago might bother me now.

Working from home has helped because the bathroom is much closer and when you gotta go... you gotta go.

The saga of the Big Pile of Macbook Pros is almost over - I'm down to one last, cranky one. I'm hoping a fresh install will fix some odd problems... but I'm not sure. Out of 15 I've salvaged 8 which will go to my local church when all is said and done.

During my stay at home I would get really tired in the morning, nap after lunch, then have problems sleeping at night. I decided to up my coffee intake during the morning and not nap so I can sleep at night. It seems to be working.

I want to make Punching Nazis Great Again.

It really can't be helped - my housemate needs the care and I need to work. I'm working remotely so I can be home when needed but I really need to throttle down a bit.

This morning, instead of going for my walk I ran out to get *good* bagels and hit the grocery store for a few items. This was not the best idea too soon after waking up and no breakfast. I know I startled one of the workers when I cursed out the shopping carts for being stuck together (although no Bad Words were used.) I quickly realized that I was stressed out and took a few deep breaths.

And then, total surprise: the store music system started playing "Nantucket Sleigh Ride" by Mountain. OMG. I. Am. Old. For a moment, I felt the Universe had handed me a chill pill. Then, when leaving the store I got a glimpse of an almost clear, pre-morning sky. A moment of beauty.

Then I got *good* bagels. Nice. Salt and 7 grain. You buy a dozen and they give you 15!

I'm still burnt out and I know it. Hopefully, I'll take some time and actually relax this weekend.
