Hi Monkey Face!
Things are going great! I've had to work some OT lately, so I've not been playing on the UD Thread as much as I would like.
I've decided to take another stab at playing the guitar (you can easily and accurately imagine Mrs NL visibly cringing here). I can't seem to quite give up chess (or any of my other diversions) either, so the days fly by.
I've noticed that I am wasting a good 4-5 hours every night just sleeping, so I'm trying to see what I can do about that. I can get by on 3 hrs/night for a month or so and then just crash for some reason...go figure...
Maybe I need to find stronger coffee!!
Then there is the ever-popular challenge of trying to beat Pookie18's
"Today's 'toons" ping in the mornings. He starts pretty early this time of year.
I never had enough coordinated fingers to play the guitar. I wasn’t too bad on the violin and ukelele, but the guitar had too many strings!
And I haven’t played chess since I beat Igor three games in a row, 25 years ago. Of course, that was after he beat me every game for nine years...
Wasting time sleeping is understandable. Before I got sick, I usually made it on six hours or less, because there were just so MANY things to do!
It’s good to know you’re still among the Undeaders, though! I think I’ll be pinging a little later this morning, so look for it.
OT is good...I mean, as long as it’s double-time-and-a-half for holidays. That the only time you’re paid what you’re really worth! ;o]
