It’s exactly 8 PM and I’ve been in bed for 10 minutes already. It’s been a long day. Lots of programming at work today. And a related story which I am too tired to relate now but which I will tell you about tomorrow.

After work, I went to dinner with Karen. We went to Crystal City. Can you believe I work one Metro stop from Crystal City and I’ve never been there? We ate at a ribs joint and the food and conversation was really good.

But it meant a very long day. I got home from work at about 7:30 PM and I am beat. I took care of the usual chores, and then climbed into bed. I’m planning on reading more of The Demon-Haunted World, but I’m not sure if I will make it very far. We’ll see.
