Was up late last night dealing with:

And then today I had a long conversation at work with (e:Paul). I am so used to working alone for so long that I think the part of my brain that knows how to program is not hooked up to the part of my brain that knows how to use my mouth to speak.

It took so much energy out of me to try to speak about programming. I feel like I am dead. Different parts of the brain are like tinker-toys and connected in certain ways and doing new things is so taxing, even if the individual parts of the new things are old things.

It is nice to work somewhere that I have colleagues instead of just co-workers, I was really missing out on that intellectual sharing part of work before.

Some more details:

7pm India Gate - Corner of Elmwood and Forest

Please bring cash. I think the buffet is $10 per person plus also there's tip, but if you want to drink then bring more. I don't think they'll split the cheque across multiple cards.

Parking lot is off Forest - there's a lot with meters, otherwise the side streets are good for a spot.

Everyone is welcome!

So, you probably won't be seeing much of (e:James) on here for a while:




Update: I should remember to thank (e:enknot) for suggesting this as a gift, it worked out really well :)

There's a new lunch place opening downtown in a couple months, called Chop Chop. It's going to be at 300 Main Street. Best of all - one of my favorite people ever, Laurie Sweet, is going to be the chef!

Summer flowers for the mantle.
