Mr. Crankypants

I wasn’t exactly not the happiest guy at work today. I had a knot in my back, core muscle soreness, and had a general feeling of malaise. I even thought of punting my Thursday trip to the gym but the knot in my back went away so I had no excuse that offset my exercise obsession.

I felt a lot better afterwards, but I know I need to get to sleep early to maintain that. But I’m up late trying to order my new iPhone 4S. I want an unlocked model so I can take it to Japan with me. Too bad I just got into the online Apple Store to find out that I can’t get one until NOVEMBER, after my trip to Japan.

Phooey. Time to hit the hay.

R.I.P. Steve Jobs

I’m can’t tell you why I’m so sad about a guy who I’ve never met, at least not if you don’t count being in the same room with him in the past. But Steve Jobs is responsible for a lot of my hobby of just putzing around with a computer, and I’ve been going to hear his keynote at WWDC for five years. I even got up at 4AM to get in line to hear his keynote this year, a keynote that didn’t start until 10AM. He looked a bit gaunt, and my friend who knows him told me to leave him alone. I didn’t understand what she meant then, but I think I do now. Like I said, I’m not sure why this is affecting me so much. I hope his kids are OK.

Other than that, I’ve just been busy at work. Nothing spectacular that I can point at and say, “Look at my accomplishments!” but I’m busy nevertheless. Busy enough that I have nothing else going on, but when do I ever have anything going on?
