Peak Productivity February 13, 2005 5:38 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeI’m most productive when my desk is clean, my music collection is alphabetized and all cds are in their cases, I have daily exercise and I have daily fiction reading.
Right now I have none of that.

This Morning
I’ve been neglecting my links of late due to extreme stress and the fact that my computer has slowed down to the point of almost being unusable. Time for more RAM me thinks.
Today let’s add juliepatchouli and Bitchin4Sanity.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeThe dog and the cat are hilarious. The cat is not declawed and the dog just wants to play with the cat. The cat wants the dog to play but by her rules. She typically parks herself within range of the dog, a window sill or bookshelf, and the dog will come up to her and sniff her and lick her. When she’s had enough she plays drums on the dogs nose and for some reason never uses her claws. The dog doesn’t get it and keeps trying to lick her so the cat incorporates both front paws pounding on the dogs nose as fast as she can. It’s a sight I need to video.

This Morning
I slept like a rock last night with vivid dreams. Yesterday I had close to no productivity and today I’m feeling stressed over it.
Winging life doesn’t work. I don’t even have a short term plan right now. I used to have a 10 year plan, a 5 year plan and short term plans and goals in my life. I used to know to the penny how much money was coming in and going out. I’m a disorganized mess. I have to pull it together!
Today is on-site client support day. I’ll leave the house in a few minutes and be on the road until close of business so I’ll fall further behind on deliverables to out of state clients.
add a commentGreat Meeting February 10, 2005 9:17 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeOf the 20 scouts, 7 showed and still managed to be a raucous as the full count. We had a great time! We started the meeting with attendance doing the camping game “My name is ___ and I’m taking a backpack.” Next person “My name is ____ and I’m taking a backpack and a hiking staff.” And each consecutive person adds an item. It went over very well. Then we played a memory game where I placed 17 items on a table (should have been about 24) and covered them. I broke the boys into two teams and gave them each 30 seconds to stare at the table. Then they were recovered and the boys had to write down everything they saw. Again. It went over well. We had a discussion and matching game on folklore. And ended the evening with a game of balloon basketball.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeYou know on Monday when you go up the stairs you turn left if you want to go to the bathroom.
Then on Tuesday when you go up the stairs and you turn left if you want to go to the bathroom.
On Wednesday morning when you go up the stairs you turn left if you want to go to the bathroom.
On Wednesday afternoon having solely worked on the garage when you go up the stairs you turn left and there is no bathroom.
This is programming.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeMasterbation can get you "from one day to life in prison"
Larry Harrison Jr., 20, a U-M sophomore and a 6-foot-3, 300-pound football player … For the second time in six days was approaching Katie Karlson’s house near the University of Michigan campus with his pants down, masturbating. Victims say Harrison’s status as a leading tackler for the Wolverines makes it harder to accuse him.
You know, what he is doing is wrong but life in prison for choking the monkey is a little out of whack. We have harder crimes doing less time and we are locking people up for years for crimes like this (which should be required therapy not jail) or smoking marijuana (less harmful than alcohol)?!

Yesterday was programming galore. My client will demo the product to his clients today at 5:30 so every moment of today has to be focused on code. I can take a breather tomorrow.
