apparently the computer is bad for me

My boss is leaving, retiring, at the end of the month, and that, among other things, has probably sent me into a bit of a nervous tizzy. No idea who will get his job, but I have to get my resume in order. I think I'm not allowed to even try, because I'm not G band. It seems tremendously unfair to restrict it to G band, seeing as there is no G band position in the department for someone to move from. He is H, Moose and I are F. But whatever, I'll try, anyway.

I had not slept well for quite a while, until last night, and I hope I can repeat that again, tonight. Maybe I should just take a diphenhydramine and knock myself out, but that's never as satisfying a sleep. What I did last night was get off the computer by 8:30pm and read for a while. And, of course, I was ridiculously exhausted. I should really not be on here right now - I mean, my doctor has told me that being on the computer late can screw with people's sleep, and I've spent most of the evening reading, I should not undo all that good relaxation time just before bed.

Must tell you about what I'm reading, though I'm sure Eor's probably written a review - I have "Sacre Bleu," by Christopher Moore. It's all about painters in Paris - Manet, Monet, Renoir, Sueret - all in an adventure which starts with Van Gogh's murder. We got the first edition, signed by the author, because it's in color, and the later printings won't be. Paintings by all these painters are used as illustrations, so they are of course all in color, but I hadn't realized last night, when I began reading it, that the text is in blue. This makes me happy, for some reason, though it seems like a small enough thing. :)

Off to do something useful, or at least not detrimental to my health, take care. ;)
