Is anyone else sleeping right now?

Man, this just really sucks.
I had all of this writing that I wanted to get done this weekend, and I just can’t do it. I can’t sleep, but even if I could it would just seem like a cop out at this point. How are people supposed to deal with something like this?
I re-read a bunch of Marvelous Bob earlier today and I just can’t get over what a genius Michael was, and he didn’t even know it. Or maybe he did and he just liked playing with people – that was kind of his thing. He always was the subtle jokester, from selling his webcomic, to creating an entirely new comic solely to promote his original webcomic, to re-packaging said original webcomic for another audience; I thought that it was a joke – some sort of sick, twisted joke – when I first got the news, but it wasn’t.
I didn’t really know the guy as much as I would’ve liked to, and we’d only met face-to-face once, but I really admired him for the passion that went into his writing. A lot of people live their entire lives trying to write like Michael did, but to him it was natural…even if he refused to meet deadlines purely out of principle! We never will get to hear the rest of the story and what ends up happening to Bob in the long run, but if anything else, it was certainly fun while it lasted…
Pretty Pictures…all six of them…
My Tampa photos are finally up…although the only ones I have are ones that were probably posted here long ago…
I’ve decided that I need to start taking pictures again, so I’m looking online to find a replacement LCD for my digital camera. I did find one on eBay that looks hopeful and won’t break my pocket book, so let’s just hope that it’s a) the same LCD and b) going to actually work when I turn it on. I’ve got a bad feeling that I’m going to end up buying a new camera before all this is through, but keep your fingers crossed!
Conan does it again!
Funny – I don’t remember my apartment hunting trip being THIS much fun…
(…this won’t be staying up forever – please save a copy if you so desire!)
…and every stop is neatly planned for a poet and a one-man band…
Day two of my site updates continues – I wanted to upload a bunch of photos that I took back when I first got to Tampa, but apparently some of the permissions got changed on our web server and I can’t seem to get anything in the admin area of gallery to work, so rather than spend the next hour re-CHMODing everything, it’s just going to have to wait until tomorrow…
Hmmm, what else can I do in the meantime?
…something’s tingling, but it’s not what you think…
Now I’m not usually one to jump on the bandwagon with these quizes, but this one just had me a little concerned…

Please join me in saying, “Wha???”
I think I’m a clone, err, ALONE now…
You know you need to lay off the Weird Al when the original tune in the background and can’t for the life of you remember the REAL words!
Laziness is simply the subtle art of resting before you get tired…
This truly was one of the laziest weekends I’ve enjoyed in a while, and I loved every minute of it! Last week I started working overtime at the job again because hey, if they’re going to simply give away free money, then I’d be crazy not to take advantage of it! I put in twelve last week and they’re already scheduling me for more starting tomorrow – keep it coming, guys…
So the primary reason that I sat around all weekend was because I’m finally able to download stuff to my computer again…and boy did I ever! I’ve been pretty much neglecting my cable connection since I got here because I was more or less out of disk space, or at least I was until my new 160 GB baby showed up last Thursday night! The array in my server is now up to 400 GB and after cleaning out my desktop’s drive, it still has over 100 GB to spare, so I had some catching up to do this weekend. I just completed Season #15 of The Simpsons and will make it my goal in life to work my way backwards to Season #01 over the next several days and weeks…so I pretty much spent the bulk of my time watching most of the newer episodes that I’ve missed and it was definitely time well spent!
In other news, I’ve taken the next big step with my cell phone and entered the realm of people who spend excessive amounts of time with their camera phones, so it seemed only fitting to create a new blog to help capture the whole experience – enter Scott’s MoBlog!!! Low quality digital photography has never been this much fun, I’ll tell ya – follow the link, comment on all of the things I’ve felt the need to capture on my neat little Samsung A680 camera phone (provided by Sprint PCS), and even sign up for a free moblog for yourself – it’s an exciting life here in the age of technology, ain’t it?!
Tomorrow I’ll throw up a few shots from my desk at work so everyone else can get an idea of the lovely view that I enjoy for eight hours a day…
Yay, <local sports team>!!!
I’ve never been much of a hockey fan, or a sports fan in general, but Lightning 4 – 1 against Philly – we’re still in this thing, baby!
