Cross Platform Woes

Today's entry was written using notepad on my pc at work. For those of you that care, I usually use Claris Home Page on my Mac clone at home. I know that html is fairly universal, but I was worried for a time.

I was really hyper when I woke up this morning. Part of the reason is that I was still awake until one in the morning. Lack of sleep makes me hyper. This is an old habit of mine. I stay up late on Thursday night, because I know that tomorrow is Friday and that I can coast through the day. This might also be a carry over from my days in college. Thursday night was party night for all the students. Then when Friday came most of the student body went home for the weekend. Suitcase college is what most people use to describe the phenomenom.

The hyperactivity wore off in the middle of the morning and I was ready to go back to sleep.

Sometimes I really ask too much of my poor body. Drinking is very foreign to my body now. I find it hard to drink. Alcohol is not a pleasant thing for my body anymore. I doubt that it ever was a good thing for me, but I know when I drink now that it is a battle. Its not that I get sick. Its just that my body wants to process the alcohol as fast as possible and return to normal.

I do not profess to be some kind of guru, but I know what my body is telling me.

The laptop was handed to me this morning. So that is one less thing to worry about before I leave for Omaha.

Noon. Five more hours and I am free. Nap time is a very agreeable thought at the moment.

I told my co workers that I should leave a cardboard cutout of me in my cube while I am gone.

I think that the hardest part of the trip for me will be me without all of my stuff. I am a stuff person. My books and furniture are me. My house is me. Everything that will represent me will have to be shoved into two pieces of luggage.

This is a definite drawback to my proposed career as world traveller. A person can't see the world and carry his living room on his back at the same time. Something has to give somewhere.

Ugh. I have spent the past few hours going back and forth between an IBM laptop and my desktop Mac clone. I did manage to write the html code for today using notepad at work. I also uploaded it on the laptop. Now I am back on the Mac clone and can not use the code for some reason. Wait. Get this. I can upload the code on the IBM, but I can not use Claris Home Page on the Mac clone to read it. I can however use HoTMeTaL on the clone to read the same code. Hmmm.
