Some Words

There’s crazy stuff going on at work and I’m trying to get some moving done. I don’t know what made me pick up a bunch of overtime just before moving, but I don’t have a day off until the 29th.

And then yesterday I read this post at Crooked Timber which made me feel a little better about the fact that I haven’t… I don’t know… Set the world of books on its ear? Not gonna happen, but there’s nothing wrong in getting a little stuff published and feeling good about that.

Which brings me to the point that I need to write if I’m ever going to accomplish even that modest goal. Now I’m go to do just that.
