No way I can walk away from a two back-to-back episodes of House. Looks like I'm going to be up very late tonight. {{sigh!!}}

I'm thinking about bringing my computer to a coffee shop and working there because in a half hour my favorite TV show is on, and I won't be able to resist watching it if I'm here (although I'm recording it).

One of the democratic candidates just said something so outrageous that I don't need to hear anything else. I know who I'm voting for.

I'm answering business email messages now while eating dinner.

Well, I didn't start right at 3pm - it was more like 3:30pm. The other bad thing is that I spent more than an hour on it - more like 2 hours and 15 minutes. Spending too much time on things is a serious problem for me. It's that perfectionism problem I wrote about in the article on the home page. So it's good I did the first report, but I did it too slow.

I have four more to do tonight! But I need to take a short break first. Maybe I'll go take a walk outside.
