Back to work, and it seems like I didn't even get to rest.

Friday night. Spent part of the night writing an iPhone article that I'd gotten behind on because of the busy-ness of the week. Finished it (in first draft form), thankfully. Spent the rest of the evening preparing for my D&D game on Saturday.

Saturday. Ran D&D during the day. Came home and revised and polished the aforementioned iPhone article. Also, OKed some final materials for the iPhone book.

Sunday. Felt ill. Napped much of the day. After dinner discovered that I'd been sent a copy of the index for the iPhone book, with just a little time to give my comments on it. Started work on that.

Partway though, Mike A. showed up to drive Kimberly & me to a concert in the city. It was at the Great American Music Hall, which is a very nice, casual venue, though we got there too late to get a seat where we could see the show without standing up. The main show was Jonathan Richman who got going around 9pm. I'm now interested in RIPping my There's Something about Mary CD. (He sang one song from it.) Got home around 11.

After watching The Amazing Race finale, headed back up to my office to finish commenting the iPhone Book index.

Monday. Woke up, back to work.



On the bright side, this week promises to be quieter, on the down side heading toward Christmas. I have another iPhone article to write (the third in a series), but the iPhone Book is supposed to be heading off to the printers momentarily, and that'll be a big load off. I expect I'll write about the iPhone book later tonight.

Watched the finale as well. I've been to Portland, OR. Love the town, but it is a nightmare to drive through, especially the downtown portion. Fortunately, the downtown area is not as bad if you're a pedestrian. I'm disappointed they didn't use Powell's as part of the obstacle course. (Next time I'm in Portland, I'm going to take that zip-line to that island.)

There's no way my sister and I could work together like that. My younger brother, and her, sure, they're much closer than either of them are to me.

Race has won so many Reality TV Emmys the award should be named after them.

I think the show is basically a combination of 80 Days Around the World and Nickelodeon's Double Dare. You have to race against opponents and then do some sort of physical/mental challenge at certain points of the race. That, the back and forth competition, and where they go is the appeal.
