Some people are bored, but I'll tell the story again. I took a redeye flight to DC. I can never sleep on a plane. Everywhere else (including during a root canal) but never on a plane. I checked into the hotel and headed toward my congressman's office to get my ticket. Then it was off the the inauguration. Afterwards, I should have done something smart like go back to the room and get some sleep before the FReeper Ball. Instead I did something stupid. Fun, but stupid. I spent four hours getting face to face and arguing with the protestors in the street. I just couldn't help myself. How I was ever able to get through the radio broadcast from the Ball I don't know. By the time I got back to my room and got to sleep, I had been awake for 41 hours. It totally screwed my immune system. Never again.

I know how you feel, Doug. I once drove for 32 hours straight. Never again!
