with my crazy work schedule this past few months, i've taken to odd rituals, like getting out of bed at 4am on weekend mornings and reading, just reading, sitting on the sofa enjoying the feeling that at this moment, no one could possibly need me to do anything. its one of the few times i can really feel myself relaxing. in a couple hours, it'll be house-cleaning time and errand-running time, and the unavoidable instinct to sit down and do work. but for now, its not.

also, a bit of unsolicited advice to no one in particular, something that ran through my head last night before sleep, processing the events of the day: the problem with using spin to sell your arguments is that people almost always know when they're being spun to, and that's insulting and counter-productive. stop it.


good morning.
