ahhh the 6:00 am typey typey.
did nothing last night. chris stopped by the house after work and we hung out for a while. most of the time was spent handing the phone back and forth talking to d-man in baltimore. i really wish (and so do the mccarthy's) that they lived closer. it was really nice when i could go down to portland and crash on their floor.
ended up sleeping half the night away on the couch. this is becoming a regular part of my life. it wouldn't be so bad if it was a little more comfortable. as it is my couches are leftover dorm furniture form western washington university... circa 1955... that my folks aquired in the 60s when my pops was an RA there. ugly and functional... but a bit to short for long assed i.
dr. yesterday: upped my prednisone to 20/10 mg (20 one day, 10 the next) with a normal taper. also got a bunch of blood drawn to measure immuran levels in my red blood cells, also got a big shot of vit b-12. yum. supper. the prednisone actually works pretty quick and i ate some rice and left over pork yesterday. i am feeling lots better but still should proceed slowly.
I had a great visit with josh the other night where he was busted out the story of jethrow from the old books of the bible. inspired, of course, by the ultra religious jethrow tull (sitting on a park bench, eyeing little girls with bad intent). it is great to have josh around and i will be very sorry if he and tal decide to move out of seattle after they have their baby. of course this will just add another reason to travel to NY or israel. Josh reminds me of kids i grew up with overseas.... brash, interesting, funny... with excellent historys and adventures to recount. I got my fingers crossed that his photography business takes off. He deserves it. I think his portraits are amazing.
work: i am wound tight waiting for something to go wrong. i am starting to stick my nose in the test version of the product and then running around trying to solve whatever problem i find. it will be good to revise this product again for next year. give me a month and an engineer and a production person and i could hone that thing sharp. as it is i will be doing a lot of starting from scratch next year. a different challenge, a bigger one.... i just have to think of the lesson that netscape learned from the evil empire: sometimes you are better off if you just start over and leave your legacy behind. (ie 1.0, competing on internet time ).... dropping science like galileo dropped his orange.
