What, is it winter?

OK, I know it's the middle of winter out there, but for crying out loud. When I got in my car this morning, the thermometer read 36°F (2°C)! So, what's up with that already?

I'm doing the double-duty thing again, too. There's another mini-project out in Neverneverland, due on Sunday (or so they say) and I've been recruited to work the night shift. It's five or six hours a night, plus all day on Saturday and Sunday. I'm only doing it because not only will it contribute to my road trip funds, it will pay the damn rent, and maybe I'll get a phone out of it, too. I still haven't got one. And the longer I wait, the more I realize that having a mobile phone nowadays makes such a huge difference in the level of convenience under which we all live. You know?

So, I get up at 6 a.m. to SS&S, and then run out the door at 6:30 a.m. I wanted to minimize my driving times for this night work stuff, so I thought I'd cut my BART time in half by driving to Lafayette and parking there. I still can't park in Walnut Creek. It's just not cost effective. So I thought I'd have to leave early to get to Lafayette in time to grab a parking spot. I get there at 6:46 a.m., and half the lot is still empty. My train doesn't arrive until about 7:57 a.m.

So I sit in the lot, listen to music, eat my banahna, and watch the other working people run to catch their trains. And I realize that Lafayette station has a lot better looking men than Rockridge.

That's all, I guess.

I was silly enough to write this at 8:34 AM
