Freelancer's Office: Blog

Why is it that those two things seem to be the only things I ever do?  I was talking to a old friend of mine that suddenly showed back up the other day and as we were catching up I made the comment that it was strange, when the computer is off I seem to get really tired and want to sleep.  I joked that I’m addicted to the thing, but… is it possibly true?

I realized as we were talking that I may have accidentally trained my brain to perceive the lack of the computer as a signal that it can sleep.  Without a regular dose of sitting and working at the computer throughout the day, my brain assumes that it is allowed to shut down and sleep.  Ooops!  I think I best spend more of my time away from the computer.  This means I need to buy one of them pens that transcribes into the computer - right? ::innocent look::  Hey, this is an addiction we’re talking about here, you can’t expect me to go cold turkey… can you?

I have two dogs now, so maybe getting out and walking with them as they get older will be a way to get away from the computer more.  Of course, you know I have been thinking since they were born that I need to start another blog or website just for them.  ::snicker:: I’m so addicted.  Okay, I’ll go see if I can convince myself to be away from the computer long enough to get some rest… oh, wait, no… I have one more thing- two more things to do, then I’ll get off the computer.  I swear.

I have a feeling that the stupid remailing spam crud has hit me again, I’m waiting for over two thousand e-mails to download. ::sigh:: Hate it when them bastards hit me like this.  Stupid thing picks my site url to send out SPAM from and then every bounce comes to me.  And there are a LOT of them.

I got the tax software that I need for making out my taxes this year, now I just have to boot the puppies from my office floor so I can focus on sorting out tax stuff without having my toes bit by puppies infiltrating the office.

Right now I am taking a break from thinking about taxes to update all my sites as I wait for the second half of a movie I am watching to come on SciFi.  I started watching the Legend of Earthsea on SciF last night, it is one of those stories that I have always meant to read but never got the chance.  I suppose watching the movie is better than never having a chance to read the books, and maybe this will prod me to make the time.

At the very least it is giving me a break from the insanity of thinking about taxes.
