You know the night time…

is not really the right time to try to be able to concentrate on getting work done.

I discovered earlier today that one of the main reasons I couldn’t get anything done while I was here last night was that a database crashed, and it’s not possible to run any computing jobs when this database isn’t running. So that explains one mystery that had confused me a bit.

Tonight I’ve managed to make a bunch of plots, which counts as being productive, I think. But I’m fast losing the ability to think clearly. But I don’t want to drink more coffee lest I be unable to sleep when I get home.

Incidentally, I should give credit to JP for the category for this and the preceding blog entry. I have shamelessly stolen the category from him, as I think I may well have done with a number of others, come to think of it.

Needless to say, I am not getting anywhere in my attempts at thinking about ideas for the upcoming online Amber game, which was something I was hoping to sort of give some thought to while here with nothing to do. Creativity seems to be somewhat beyond me just now.

Two and a half hours to go… And then there will be a bed. I think today I’ll let myself sleep until I wake up. Bliss.
