    Up at 4:30 AM and at a quick breakfast before heading in the office. It was windy here last night and I slept pretty well until about midnight, at which point I had a lot of trouble getting back to sleep, so I was a bit more tired than usual when I got up this…

  • A British approach to the Nigerian email scam?

    23 Feb 2007 » 3 min read

    When I got back from the gym this morning, I received the following email message at my work email address (which is unusual because our spam filters are pretty good) and which looks to me like a British approach to the Nigerian email scam. This kind of thing is a waste of time, clutters up…

    It’s been almost two months since I posted the last humiliating progress photo of myself. I guess that means it’s about time for another one. December 28, 2006 February 22, 2007 This time, I tried to smile in the picture. I also tried to be a little more relaxed. Maybe it’s me, but I can…

    22 Feb 2007 » 1 min read about Fitness & Health

    Just back from my workout with Bernard and it was a record-setting workout as you will see. And if you don’t believe what you see, well, either do I, but it’s true. I have witnesses. Plus, I can barely walk.

  • Good, but not good enough

    22 Feb 2007 » 1 min read about Writing & Publishing

    I made good progress on my various projects today, but not good enough to keep me from working this weekend. And next weekend. I don’t know exactly how much work I’ll have to do over each weekend; I’m hoping that it’s not too much. But at this point, I’ve resigned myself to the fact that…

    I was recently talking about Shakespeare with some friends, and on the same day, opened this latest issue of SCIENCE FICTION AGE to read Scott Edleman’s editorial, “Science Fiction is the stuff that dream are made on”, which deals, of course, with Shakespeare.

  • Early night

    22 Feb 2007 » 1 min read about Reading & Books

    I can sleep in until 5:30 AM tomorrow because I don’t have my workout until tomorrow afternoon. But rather than waste my evening away watching TV, I decided to get to bed early, and read while I finish up some laundry. I got a rare email from Rich today. He was congratulating me on selling…

    21 Feb 2007 » 1 min read about Work & Career

    Lunch time on Wednesdays are often my favorite because it is during lunch on Wednesday that we crest the hill that is the work week, and begin our slide down the downhill side. I’ve always been confused about the exact moment that the week is half over. Here is how I break it down. There…

    21 Feb 2007 » 1 min read about Work & Career

    I had a really lazy evening last night, sitting around catching up on various episodes of TV shows, when I could have been finishing up a final draft or working on one of the 4 other stories I’ve got going. The kitchen could use some cleaning too, but I chose to be lazy instead. I…
