Does 1:00 in the morning count as the buttcrack of dawn or is that a little bit later in the morning? I like the term ‘buttcrack of dawn’, so whether that’s technically what it is right now or not, I’m going with it for my title.

Once again, I’m using OneNote to compose my Random Randomness© in. I’ve used it SO many times over the past three days. I’ve stored recipes in it, used it to save Google search results, television schedules, movie information….just so much stuff. I absolutely LOVE this program. I totally cannot believe I’ve had it this whole time and didn’t even know what it was. I’m going to be going through all my Microsoft crap tomorrow (errr…later today) to see what other goodies I’ve got hiding!

Tomorrow (later today since it’s just after 1AM) is my fasting day. My buddy, Matthew, and I fast every single Monday. I admit I accidentally skipped a Monday, but I’ve been pretty good about it. I know Matthew has been doing well also. He’s also been doing his whole Yoga/Push-ups/Sit-Ups thing, so he’s turning into a real Tony Little…minus all the annoyance.

I finally got smart and typed out a ginormous list of different lines of HTML code that I use daily and saved it in OneNote. I can’t tell you how much time I’ve already saved myself. Instead of typing all this lengthy code out all the time, now all I do is open up my OneNote HTML notebook, copy the code I need, and paste it wherever it’s going! Zap! Quick, fast, and in a hurry! I cannot believe it took me all this time to finally bother doing it. I’ve been threatening to for a few years now. Yes…Y-E-A-R-S. I put most procrastinators to shame!

I’ve been drinking a tumbler of tea every night for the past few nights. It’s a really lovely way to wind down. I’ve been going with the Vanilla Chai flavor from the folks over at Bigelow. It’s really very tasty. I enjoy the hell out of it.

When Lonnie and I met with our daughter’s teacher at our parent/teacher conference, I made sure to ask what the school’s policies are with the children bringing home baked goodies to school. The last school our daughter went to had a strict NO HOME BAKED GOODIES!!! rule. Apparently they were freakishly paranoid about one of the kids bringing poisoned treats to school or something. :roll: Well, I was informed by my daughter’s teacher that there is no such rule at this school!!! :D I got SO excited. I told the teacher to be expecting a lot of super cute cupcakes to come her way.

It’s been so nice to finally see Lonnie get a little active with My.Opera. He posted some stuff on his blog the other night. It wasn’t only good to see him on there because he’s never on there and I enjoy his company….it was also nice to see him on there doing something other than work. He’s such a work-a-holic. I knew that’s how he was when we got together, so I do my best not to bring it up or gripe about it….that’s a lot easier said than done sometimes.

Wow…I just got struck with a GIANT wave of grogginess!!! That’s good. If I were smart, I’d get off of here immediately and go lay down. Too bad I’m a complete moron when it comes to this stuff. :roll: I drive poor Lonnie insane with the avoiding the doctor bit.

I wasn’t going to, but I think I really am going to lay down this time. I’m feeling more and more groggy….and like my body is essentially shutting down. I’d rather be in the horizontal position when that occurs.

I hope that groggyness isn’t caused by hypoglycemia, or anything like that … if you’re like that tomorrow, should you be fasting … ? :(

Awww… :oops: It’s so sweet of you to be concerned. There is no reason at all to be concerned, though! The reason for said grogginess is sleep deprivation. Lonnie and I have been pulling all-nighters (working) for the past week & 1/2. We’ve basically been getting about 4 hours of sleep every other day. It’s incredibly unhealthy and I look & feel like shit, but oh well. There’s work to be done.
I know it must seem like I never work at all with how much I post on social sites…etc. I do that WHILE working, though. I’ve become a master of multi-tasking. If not for the social sites, I’d pretty much go brain dead. A person can not live on NOTHING but work….gotta have some fun once in a while, too.
Sorry…didnt’ mean to babble so much. I just felt the need to explain myself. :P

I LOVE the little duck gifs! They’re so freaking cute. :)

That’s so awesome that you can send homemade goodies to school with Sunny! Woohoo! All the other kids are going to be so jealous of her. :D

I’m going to have to try the trial version of OneNote. That’d be so hand for a lot of the stuff I do at home and arond the office. :yes:

Good luck with your fasting today. :) I dn’t even want to imagine how hard that’d be.

Well, the other kids won’t be jealous of Sunny because I’m going to be sending big batches of stuff to school. They will all get to partake in the tasty goodness that is a cupcake! :D

As for the fasting - no sweat. I normally don’t eat until dinner time, anyway, so I’ll just skip dinner. No biggie. Besides, I’ve gone through several Anorexic periods in my life, so I know all the little tricks to make it through. :roll: I’m such a healthy person!
