Ooog.

I'm awake, and not feeling wonderful. I suspect that thats mainly due to the several ounces of rum I drank last night in an attempt to relax enough to sleep. Sometime around 5:00 AM I finally dozed off. I have no idea why I get these bouts of unable-to-sleep-ness.  Anyway, plans for today are pretty simple. taxlady got tired of waiting for me to get up and is already in the basement painting some stuff we missed, and doing second coats where needed. I helped her at first by using my Manly Muscles™ to pull some intransigent nails, but she sent me away saying I needed to drink some coffee. She was right.

By the time I've had coffee and breakfast, etc. she'll no doubt be done with that chore. So instead today I shall install a scanner both to help taxlady with document scanning for the rush of tax season, and because I'll need it for the april_drawing challenge which starts tomorrow. I also need to set up a wiki to hold the drawings as I do them. I know I could just upload them to Flickr or something, but they'll be in aid of a specific project I have in mind, so I want to have a project wiki set up for them.

Finally, its about time I sent out some CVs. I've been meaning to do that since early January, and its been One Bloody Thing After Another which has interfered with that.

Ooh, april_drawing sounds fun! I haven't consistently drawn for years. I'm rusty. It would be neat to try to commit to a month of sketches.

Go ahead and join then! All are welcome!

As an insomnia vet, let me give you a piece of advice. Alcohol is a very bad way to help you get to sleep :)

Also april_drawing sounds amazing! Wish I had heard about it a little sooner, although I may give it a shot informally anyway
