Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, everybody!

Everybody enjoy your leap second? I know I did. Even my computer managed okay.

Clock: inserting leap second 23:59:60 UTC

Isn't it just magical?

By the by, I've just gotten back from Faithwalkers. It was amazing, and I'm undoubtedly going back next year.

Things are winding up for next quarter again. I officially start day after tomorrow, but that leaves me two full days of freedom - if that makes any sense.

Gee, it's good to be back in my own timezone. It's very good indeed.

Heh... It just hit me that if we hadn't left Tan-Tar-A this morning, we wouldn't be celebrating the new year for another quarter of an hour!

Should I call and reassure them that 2006 comes in without a fuss?

...

Nah. I'll keep 'em in suspense. It's good for their character.


New Year's and Leap Seconds

Mmm... leap seconds... magically delicious!

Well, in case you are worried, I can assure you that as of 2006/01/02, 21:53, UTC +9, the world has not come to a fiery or icy end.

Sleep well. ;)

Ah, good. I must confess that I was worried.

Just does not feel like a New Year in Texas. It is record breaking heat. We are running the AC. I feel like hopping a flight to Chicago just to experience cool weather.

It's unseasonabley warm here, too. In the 40s for the past several days. Kind of gets my hopes up for an early spring.

Just keep swimming!


No! No!

It's just teasing us. :-|

There is nothing a psychiatrist can do that bubble wrap can't.

I like spring. It's by far my favorite season of the year. The only season I even like at all is spring, and I love it so much as to think that there might be an eternal springtime in heaven.

Blessed heat

I like it when it's so hot you have to sleep on top of the covers, sprawled out so your own body heat doesn't touch you, with the windows open, listening to the outdoor sounds.

Ah, bliss. :-)

Just keep swimming!
