Sorry for the delay in today's post. I have been up almost an hour already but been paying bills, making car reservations, sending birthday wishes, etc. Big wheel keeps on turning.

I had an extraordinarily busy days yesterday. I got quite a bit accomplished. By staying up as late as I did, I was able to get a lot done for work, then I slept for 3 hours, and kept it going. I ended up completely cleaning my office closet, the patio storage, got rid of the old couch we had in the garage, recycling, and replacing our Apple TV with a Roku. That last one is interesting. The ATV we have is a 4th generation but we have been having issues with it. Especially on MKV files of 720 or higher. It does the decode on the fly and it struggled with some file types. Just not powerful enough to handle a 1GB+ file decode as rapidly as we'd like. Apple just hasn't kept up when it comes to the ATV. Not to mention the selection of available content. They are so focused on wanting you to buy shit from iTunes that they miss out on so much free content or content from other providers. Like it was a struggle to get Amazon video on there. Roku being more open has a lot more channels and options. I set up Plex, Netflix, and Hulu right away, but then also set up Amazon Video and Google Play video. Not to mention a number of free channel sources. So far I am happy with it and I like the interface better. The real test will be how B likes it.

While doing all of that, I also managed to answer numerous emails, work on a problem for a client, and cook a roast. Fucking renaissance man am I. I can bring home the bacon and fry it up in a pan. Oh wait. I wonder how many of you remember that song and the commercial. Enjoli - the 8 hour fragrance for the 24 hour woman. God, I'm old.

Finally relaxed around 10 and went to bed at 11. I still have a number of things left on my todo list for today. But it will be at a much slower pace. I am sore from everything I did yesterday. The goal is to get as much done as possible to let me have the weekend to myself. So far on track. Now to go make some mac and cheese for dinner...
