I'm inspired to write again.

Look at the timestamp. Fuck. Whatever. I actually got to bed at a good time tonight. 10:30. But the stupid timer on the heater started making some god awful banging noise. At first I thought it was the neighbors downstairs hitting it again. But it wasn't. And I got a ton of sleep this weekend and I think I just burned it off staying up the past three hours. Sucks.

Anyway, I have all next week to catch up on it again. And it's going to be an adventure. Today I did a little shopping. Picked up a pair of gloves at REI. A sweater from BR. On the way home, I stopped by Borders and picked up some Lonely Planet guide books. Switzerland and Milan.

Tonight the Giants won the World Series. I was able to catch most of the game on the radio on the way home from work, and the last couple of innings and the late night madness on TV. It was beautiful seeing so many people out and having a good time. Of course, I was home. Munching on my Gordo's burrito. But still enjoying it. It would have been wonderful had the Giants been more exciting when I was really into baseball years ago. But it's still kind of nice seeing them win now, especially with the staff they have. Truly inspiring how sports can bring people together.

So I think I have renewed goals for writing this blog. And I have to set up some ground rules too. No moping. Stick to details. And have fun.

Tomorrow, I have a meeting with Nisha at 9:30 in the morning. Not going to miss it. If there's one gift that I've acquired, it's the ability to not let the lack of sleep make a difference with my performance at work. Sometimes you make impossible decisions, like standing up against fatigue. I know I have a lot of challenges in life to overcome. Let's hope they can all be as resolute.
