I slept well and woke up relatively early. I had lots of time before I needed to be at work (I’m aiming for 8 AM as a start time) so I worked through the Washington State voter’s pamphlet and decided how I would vote on several issues. I’m not sure if I will actually vote for the various seats, I simply don’t know enough about the candidates. Then I headed off to work, where I worked on some bugs.

I had trouble sleeping (thinking about work) and decided to wake up later. Once I fell asleep, I slept pretty good. The alarm went off at 7:30, but before that I got wacked a few times by Eriko who was awake and thought I had overslept. I got dressed in the living room, as I’ve started putting my clothes out of the bedroom the night before (to be more quiet). I ate a banana and headed off to work.

I slept pretty solid, except I woke up several times after bumping into Eriko. It seems that I’m tossing and turning, even if I don’t notice it. The alarm went off at 6:30, but I didn’t get out of bed for another 15 minutes or so. I hung around the house for about 45 minutes. I decided I want to get into a morning routine of waking up early and then hanging around the house rather than rushing off to work.

I slept pretty solid but since I went to bed late I got out of bed about 30 minutes after the alarm. I didn’t spend much time at home before saying goodbye to Eriko and heading off to work. I was semi-productive in the morning, but not fully engaged. Eventually I got more into the bug fixing I was doing and became relatively productive before my team heading out to Pesos for a team lunch.

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth Then took the other as just as fair And having perhaps the better claim Because it was grassy and wanted wear Though as for that, the passing there Had worn them really about the same

I had a tough time sleeping last night – partially because I was riled up by my conversation with Eriko and partially because I had some caffeine just 3 hours before bed. After a few trips to the bathroom and one short rest on the massage chair, I managed to fall asleep. I actually slept pretty solid, with some vivid dreams (which I cannot recall). I woke up at 7 when the alarm went off and got out of bed fairly quickly.
