Why is it that gladiolas

Wednesday, February 28th, 2001

Why is it that gladiolas wilt from the bottom up instead of the top down? Somehow, that doesn’t make sense to me. If *I* was a gladiola, I would wilt from the top down. Just to be different. Well, preferably I wouldn’t wilt at all. But if I had no [...]

I desperately want to blog,

Thursday, February 22nd, 2001

I desperately want to blog, but I am totally lacking in inspiration.
The release actually happened, almost in spite of itself. I was here until 10 am the next morning. It is high praise to the people I work with that after multiple nights like that, I still like them. [...]

I am so tired I

Saturday, February 17th, 2001

I am so tired I can barely think straight. I’ve been looking at the screen so long that there are swimming horizontal lines whenever I lift my eyes. I have cramps. I want a shower.
