Fried

What with an ongoing regular shortage of sleep and feeling generally worn out, as well as the “coming down” period after having visitors and the stress of Mycah’s surgical ordeal, I’ve needed to turn my brain (and my PCs) off for a while.
I think it actually started at work, around 8pm Sunday. Good thing it was a slow night at the office.
With luck (and perhaps some chemical assistance) I’ll manage to get a full night’s sleep tonight before I start my work week tomorrow. I’ll need it — I suspect it’s going to be a busy week at work, and I have a side project I need to work on for a friend.
Maybe I’ll take a nap before I go to bed.

Namecalling

I’ve been called many things before.
“Stretch,” “Tiny” — classics. “Sasquatch,” “Lurch” — a bit more creative. “Uncle Russ.” My all-time favorite.
I won’t get into the various insults.
But I don’t think I have ever been called a “fine blogger.”
It’s not actually true. . . but I’ll say thanks anyway to Jay Tea, who is 100% correct in the rest of his post on election dirty tricks. No one, but no one, gets a pass to mess with the integrity of our elections.
