Hibernation
It’s been wintry freezing cold here and I have not been able to rise and shine in the mornings at all. Three bangs on the snooze bar, minimum, every morning, even when I went to bed early the night before. I think I am related to bears. Call Stephen Colbert!
Randomness:- Life is always busy, so why can’t I ever post anything here? Maybe Audacity had the right idea.
- Amazon has magazine subscriptions on sale. The magazines in my office’s waiting room are four years old. Should I gift a subscription to my office? If so, what would my clients like to read while they wait to see me?
- Chyrp is a new blogging/tumblelogging platform I just learned about. Looks cool.
- I also just learned about this essay by David Foster Wallace from 2005. I’d like to read it but since law school I don’t think I’m smart enough to read Wallace anymore. Law school is a good way to make stupid.
- I spent two days last week at union meetings and they also made me stupid. If I were a poet I would write a poem called “Union Negotiations” and it would be all about freezing temperatures, a world frozen solid so that sound carries for miles w/no meaning, buffeted and interrupted by the howling wind. It’s lucky for you I am not a poet.
- The writer’s strike may be over and that makes me both happy and sad. The strike was depressing to me, but mostly because it went on so long w/so little impact. It seemed to me yet another sign of the waning power of collective action and unions in general. I hope I am wrong.
- I wish I could tell you which sucks more: Mean people or selfish people? Many times meanness and selfishness are the same thing.

I’m totally bummed that Audacity is gone.
