Okay, I would like to say I'm sitting here calmly working on the current book, but I'm not.
Tomorrow or perhaps Tuesday I am going to get a call from NI with their job offer. What will it be?
I have a fairly enormous base of expenses, due to the largish house we live in, child support, the truck payments, and the fact that I like to eat.
If they offer too little, I'll starve. I hate that.
Soon, soon. I hate waiting. I usually avoid the sense of "waiting" by simply doing other things, ignoring the wait. Some waits, however, are harder to ignore than others.
Friday night went to [[http://www.oddfriday.com][Odd Friday]] and had some good Geeking time with David. Last week I had repaired a metal bug for Sophia and I got to return it... she was most happy!
Yesterday was mostly involved with waiting. Though I found some interesting scripts, [[http://www.matwei.de/][Eagle3d]], that convert Eagle board files into POVRay scenes.
I of course had to go and modify them a bit, providing a breadboard and jumper wire macros to replace the circuit board.
Sigh. Another hour or so and I need to do some housecleaning. Then tonight, D&D. Then tomorrow, I'll write more or do some damn thing for Wittlock.
Did I mention I hate waiting?
