Some random bits of blog egested from my cranial spongy matter
Why can't I stay awake at 3pm? And, more to the point, why can't I sleep at 3am?
I filled in a web form today to have my land phone fixed. I haven't had a dial tone in months. My phone would still ring though, and caller ID still worked, so I knew who was making it ring. But, as of a few days ago, caller ID stopped working when it rang (though it may still work when it doesn't ring. Hmmm.) I paid good money for that caller ID, so I want it to work, dang it. And, who knows, I might even want to talk with someone with the phone someday, too. You never know.
Work is going alright. I think I found a software bug today that has been bothering me for literally months. Apparently it's a bug (or "undocumented feature") in a mathematics software library written by someone else. So it's not technically my fault, though I still should have tracked down the bugger a lot sooner than I had. But after several months of annoyance, stress, and frustration, my brain just sort of lost its will to work on it. Or on most anything else. It's been working a bit better lately.
The rotator cuff impingement thingy in my right shoulder is still bothering me. Today was worse than usual, and I forgot my Tramadol at home when I went to work. When my phone works I may try it out by calling the physical therapist to make an appointment.
My mom is having eye surgery on Thursday. Retina surgery for a macular pucker. Wish her luck.
