I've been feeling kind of quiet and introspective lately. Work has been going well - I like it when I have things to do, but we're not ridiculously busy. Today I haven't done much productive, but I have been busy. I've fiddled with the installer program for the handheld application a bit, redeployed the code for the handheld, made two mixed discs of music for listening in the office, installed some more visual studio thingies on my box at home, did some basic system maintenance here, went to the grocery store, started work on making the output of a perl program all pretty, and started re-re-re-tracking down a pesky bug in the handheld code.
I am hoping for more snow this weekend. I want to watch big fat fluffy flakes floating down, build a dumpy little snowman, curl up in front of the fireplace, and generally feel wintery. I need to get in the proper frame of mind to start pining for spring, after all.
My dreams have kept me from sleeping well lately. I manage to sleep through the night, but my dreams are so active that I feel exhausted when I open my eyes. I think I need to get more exercise. Perhaps if I wear myself out a little more before bed, my mind will settle more. The exercise bike in the living room is calling my name.
I always think I have more to say when I sit down to write. There are some writing projects I'm working on - silly little things, really - but I haven't been able to make much headway with them. My journalling has fallen off a lot lately, too. Perhaps I should try to write at least once a day for a while, get out these thoughts that pester me when they pester me. As it is, when I finally find the time to sit and write here, it's often in a lull of work (I'm currently scanning my hard drive for Bad Things (tm) and so can't do much else). I've got fragments of poetry, detailed listings of dreams, political ideas and scientific musings to ramble about, links to chase and thoughts to pin down, and all I end up doing is detailing the minutiae of my day. I promise, my mental landscape isn't so boring - it just is when I manage to sit and write.
