  • I stumbled onto an email I wrote about a year ago promising big changes I’d make early this year, changes I didn’t make. I find myself saying almost exactly the same things now about early next year. Come on, John, do this.
  • Getting my property tax bills didn’t really help with the whole “leap and the net will appear” thing, though. Lord have mercy.
  • That newish Facebook thing where they show you posts from people you don’t know because someone you do know commented on them is the worst, and I think I put my finger on why: those comments threads are just as bad as those on news sites on the web at large. People I don’t know invariably suck.
  • Yesterday, I was lectured briefly on the severity of a production problem by a guy who has done this maybe 1/3 as long as I have. I only barely contained my laughter.
  • People are starting to ask WTF is up with my hair, though they are mostly not asking me.
  • Last night I had a dream about stage fright that was so vivid, I still feel the dread now, 3 hours after waking. I have never had stage fright. I hope this is not a thing.
  • I need to find a new dermatologist, a male, because my exam yesterday was my most awkward experience with a woman since 1985.
