Here it is, well into the middle of the night, and I’m still up watching TV (Yogi Bear) and working on the Internet (gradually refining this blog’s design). It’s really going to be hell getting up in the morning; luckily, arrival time at work is pretty flexible as long as I work concomitantly late and get stuff done expeditiously.

I frequently think that life would be easier if I stuck to a pretty consistent daily schedule of sleep, but I’m rarely tired enough to fall asleep before 1 or 2 a.m., and when morning rolls around I’m so incredibly sleepy that I can talk myself into sleeping late no matter how much that little corner of my rational mind might object.

But life is good. I have chocolate milk in the fridge.
