[17:32] <Roguehorse> no internet where I am, have to use the library one day a week
[17:33] <Roguehorse> 10 mile drive into town with my sis on the way to work
[17:35] <Roguehorse> kinda sucks, but I get more programming done on MeRML and more book writing done =)
[17:44] <nhaines> Yeah, I have a fantasy of going camping for a week and using that as a writing retreat for a book.  But I don't think that's so practical this year.  :)
[17:53] <pleia2> Roguehorse: nice to see you, sorry about no internet where you are
[18:06] <Roguehorse> eh, believe it or not, I don't miss having 24/7 intrnet as much as I thought I would
[18:07] <Roguehorse> it makes me do other 'creative' things, like programming more =)
[18:07] <Roguehorse> ... and I'm getting a lot of reading done
[18:08] <pleia2> except for when I'm traveling, I go offline on Saturdays these days, it was really hard at first (check email on phone, check social media, check...) but it's peaceful and I read a lot
[18:12] <nhaines>  I needed to not have my Kindle next to my bed last night.  I checked out "The Big Sleep" by Raymond Chandler and it's fascinating.
[18:13] <pleia2> I need to put my phone on the other side of the condo when my husband is gone, else I get lonely and every time I wake up in the middle of the night I'm checking things
[18:13] <pleia2> comments on blog and facebook last night from 4:30 AM, 6:30...
[18:13] <pleia2> bad pleia2
[18:17] <nhaines> Yeah, I'm extra bad about that.
[18:18] <nhaines> But I have to have my phone by my bed or else I can't snooze my wakeup alarm for an hour.  So my hands are tied.
[18:19] <pleia2> lol
[18:19] <pleia2> I don't use an alarm much anymore
[18:19] <pleia2> I will if I have an appointment or call, but that's just a failsafe, I almost always naturally wake up before it anyway
[18:22] <nhaines> The curse of freelancing is that I tend to work until my day's tasks are over and then just sleep however long after that.
[18:23] <nhaines> So unless I'm babysitting (in which case I wake up when Alexander does, which is unfortunately eerily 6:15 +/- 2 minutes), that could be whenever.
[18:23] <pleia2> I just tend to sleep midnight to 8AM
[18:25] <nhaines> Tends to be 2-3 to 9-10 for me, if left to my own devices.
[19:14] <Roguehorse> since I've been dealing with this illness, my sleep has been irratic too, a lot of it is the meds though
[19:14] <Roguehorse> hopefully, it won't be much longer before the Dr's have all their tests done and a working solution
[19:15] <Roguehorse> NC seems to get things done faster than CA
[20:01] <Roguehorse> I guess the ubuntu-us-nc team could use some help too ...
[20:02] <Roguehorse> I don't know how much I can do while I'm here but I'll look into it
