Tuesday : 16 August 05
Waking up and getting up has never been easy… but I did it this morning without much ado. Up. On the way. Stop for caffeination. On to work. The work day wasn’t bad. I worked out at lunch. Back to the office for the second half of the day.

This evening was rather lax. I didn’t do much. And I only logged on to City of Heroes long enough to see if was there, so that I could ask him a question. He wasn’t there; I logged out. I managed to find him elsewhere online. After taking a long, circuitous route up and around much more of I-215 than was necessary, I headed over to his place so that we could decide how to deal with part of his character’s job for the Shadowrun game. I think that we found a viable – and fast-playing – solution. We’ll test out the theory next week.
