I feel sick. It started as a tickle in my throat yesterday, but now I have a stuffed up nose. I blame lack of sleep.
On Sunday, I tried to go to bed early, but I don’t think it was early enough. I got up insanely early to catch a flight to Edmonton. The flight was pretty good, considering it was Air Canada. There was no one sitting in my row, so I got to lie down and try and sleep. I didn’t actually sleep, but I did pretend.
I then went to work, and tried to do a reasonable facsimile of a productive day. I went out to dinner, did some grocery shopping. Then stayed up way to late going through some of the books that came in from Amazon.
On Tuesday, I stayed up too late again. A friend had tickets to see the Molson Indy Model search at Red’s. It was supposed to start at 9:00, but Red’s has an excellent bait-and-switch program. It didn’t actually start until 10:40. When they had a five to ten minute break, it lasted half an hour. I left there around midnight. I didn’t stay to see who the winner was. They said they would find out in ten minutes. HA!
Today, we were let out of work early. We released a major product so in celebration, we’re getting a really long weekend. I get Friday off too. In celebration, I ignored my sickness and went to see Spider-man 2.
It was a good movie. I felt it was a little slow at times. My biggest beef was that Spider-man used any excuse to take off his mask. He didn’t need villains to do it, he just did it himself. As near as I can tell, half of New York now knows what he looks like.
Now I’ve updated all the journal entries that I wrote over the vacation, and posted them. I’m now going to try and get some sleep. I have a busy day tomorrow. And I hope I’m over this cold by then.
