My body has started getting used to being up at 5:30am. I mean, I still wake up every morning going, “No way…aww come on…”, and I bet I make really pathetic faces and sounds. I guess I’ll just have to wait until mid-September when I won’t be sleeping lonely anymore. But once I’m up and at my desk I actually am pretty lucid.
Even if I’m not… no managers are in until 7:30 or 8 anyways so I have about 2 hours to do the early morning maintanence and to write assorted blog entries.
Another thing I’ve discovered about myself, a weird paradox, I get lost whenever I have to drive somewhere I’ve never been but I frick love maps. One of my favorite things at my desk is my world map. I’ve taken to researching one country a day. The other day it was Ireland, very interesting history and culture there, and yesterday it was Zimbabwe. Did you know that the ancient Zimbabwe(ans?) developed the technique of platinum working? Very interesting. Additionally, they currently have the highest literacy rate in Africa with about 95% of the population being able to read and write. I found that just plain amazing. I mean, I bet 50% of the people who play WoW couldn’t form a complete sentence if their loot roll depended on it.
Here’s an interesting note, this guy I know *cough* started a really sweet website called The Stash. If you want to download good music or watch funny videos, for free, on a site with no pop ups and spy-ware, check out The Stash.
Tonight, I’m going to a Laker game with my fam-damn-ily. It’s a Laker/Clipper game, but it’s a home game for the Lakers so technically…ya…
But it should be a good time, you know who I’ll be rooting for.
Go CLIPS!
