Fighter planes bungee cords oh my



This sleep bloggery thing is a weird treadmill.

 
Hurry up and track sleep before it’s time to go back to bed.

 
Niight before last, 4+ hours in bed plus I think a couple dozing in chair. Definitely do not need thread the hair rasing end of Trevor Noah’s book again but I forgot to set the sleep time and so had the reader on half the night.

 
Last night I was exhausted. Trip to Museum of Flight plus 4 loads of laundry. Stowed laundry and then sat down in chair sometime before midnight. Woke up about 3 and went to bed. Decided not to turn on talking book partly because I was too wired thinking about what to put in blog post about trip to museum of flight: flight simulator, the MiG, The Blackbird. The tactile wall about SE Asia, the plane with the cloth body covered in “dope” paint (my how usage has changed: someone the other day talked about a really dope project by which perhaps he meant intoxicatingly wonderful.

 
Anyway slightly over 4 hours in bed and I did not go back to bed after breakfast which I kind of hoped to do.

Holy Cow. Almost 9 hours of sleep. The extravagant luxury of going back to bed and not even trying to do anything after 5.9 hours of sleep. Going to bed at a reasonable hour because of not wanting to compute in the computer lab with no AC helped.  I decided I needed to get up and eat a real breakfast after a dream involving my certainty that I needed to take a shower in a tiny restroom near a big event of some kind and then enjoying a lot of food that I found tasty and it was not clear whether others realized it was available. I probably can go all kinds of places with that. Computer lab has AC. Room where digital equity team works does not. There is some kind of switching mystery that not even one of the very wise SHA HVAC experts can solve. Nice to see the computer lab space in use. And for exercise I will ride under desk bike to nowhere for awhile at an hour too late to be a good idea. Also I MUST scrub floor and wrangle refrigerator life forms. Count how many days I say that be...

About six hours of sleep. I should have gone back to bed. CPAP is a little bit of a workout but I think that will settle down. Mom's tree after all the presents were unwrapped Christmas with the fam went brilliantly.  First there was a chauffeur schedule that left me time to talk to Mom about latest non-locating of my brother while nephew fetched his parents. We did snack food and did not even attempt anything complex in Mom's "one-butt kitchen" Little Sister brought Little Smokies, one pan in a sauce I did not expect to tolerate made of commercial BBQ sauce and grape jelly. Little sister brought rolls and fruit salad. I brought crackers, cream cheese, beet chips and celery the latter of which I think I was the only one eating. So the rest of the bunch gets sauted and frozen for soup.  I brought yams to microwave if anyone wanted but kitchen logistics clobbered that. And we finished with mandarins and no one even wanted cookies and ice cream. Mostly I am SO GLAD Mom d...
