First Real Post . . .

Well, it seems the key to a good day is getting up on time, and now that I finally started setting my alarm again after those weeks of late nights, it's coming through! I value a good night's sleep highly, and fear of setting the alarm after all those late nights had left me getting up late too often, and concurrently going to sleep late. So, that's that.

The goal, of course, is to be out of the shower by 8:00 AM (let's call it, "Ideal Time"), which still doesn't bode well when a teaching job comes along . . . eventually . . . hopefully; anyway, I was out by 10:20 today, so that makes it a "2 hour late day," made worse by prescription pick-ups that needed to be done as well. Anyway, Iron Man tomorrow; unlike Harold and Kumar last week (missed), this one's a must.

Finally, happy May Day! For those who forgot, this is the true Labor Day, at least for most of the world. Though the US celebrates it on the first Monday of September, it's a great irony this country that won't celebrate it properly is the originator of May Day. To be exact, the Haymarket Affair of 1886. Just another historical tidbit, for what it's worth . . .

Anyway, 'til next time . . .

(pretty good for a true first post! I guess . . .)
