The dogs are fighting over a rawhide bone, Tom is down at the boat, I'm here by myself (human-wise) watching football, trying to get settled into a new year.

It's not easy getting back into a groove. But I know there are worse things.

I have people from Church Under the Bridge (an outreach group I'm involved with) demanding time and resources from me when other board members apparently can't communicate or are too ignorant to do so.

Work is weird, stupid people have prominence, stupid things take precedent, and in general things are just weird.
