Pardon me while I pass out.

My buddy Henry was in town and I saw him for the first time in 21 years. We were in the same dorm and lived close to each other most of the time we were there. He was reminding me that I was a big wimp and actually got some sleep when I was at MIT. We ended up talking at the Rogue Ale House. While we were there we started talking to a guy at the next table. He was a geek in town for the Ubuntu Live conference and his friends had ditched him. We did have one big panic when he thought he lost his wallet, but other than that we hit Tugboat Brewery and called it a night. Actually, Henry wanted to make a dent in the bottle of wine he got for “free” for using his AMEX Platinum card at the hotel, so the two of us reminisced about more crap.

Unfortunately I left a little after midnight and the streetcar to my neighborhood quits running just before midnight. It’s only a 45 minute walk home, and I slept in a little before heading into work.

Today was the usual series of disappointments. Work sucked. The job I am still interviewing for tomorrow is no longer available. I went and played golf for the first time in two and a half weeks and I got yet another high score. So life is back to normal. And fortunately I didn’t fall asleep driving home, but I did pass out right after dinner. I better try to get some sleep tonight.

  1. Hi Todd,
    My beady eyes discovered your website. Not sure how I found it.
    You seem to still have your wit and have gone beyond the hobby of collecting dust.
    I am no longer in the electronics industry. Technology bored me as did the low pay accepting peers from other countries who live to work instead of working to live.

    Send me an email. I’ll catch you up on the last 20 years – Amy, my kids, jobs, and my back pain.

    …………….Gregg
