Enforced Slowness

Between someone’s release of an internet worm, my host’s server relocation, and complete and utter gridlock in the physical world caused by some sporting event over at Qualcomm, the work scheduled for the weekend has gone molasses slow. Not slow like pro football (play-rest-commercial break-repeat) but still pretty slow.

Pongo was happy with the result. He sensed my frustration in that way only he can and pawed me and nuzzled me until I gave in to the idea of a canyon hike. The weather was perfect for it. Got some exercise, got some sun, got some fresh air and had a pretty good time. Pongo knows best.

Today there are Sunday things to do. Trying to avoid the crowds will be difficult, but possible. Might get a little work done while all of you are watching sweaty men in pads and tights throwing around the internal organ of a dead pig. Might go back to the canyon and leave the work until really early Monday morning (still have to finish prepping a meeting). Maybe something else will come up. But which ever way it goes, there’s not a cloud in the sky and the temperature is already at 60 degrees (15 for you up north). Life is good.
