Have you ever just had one of those experiences that, no matter how hard you try, you just can’t get to sleep? Or, if you do get to sleep after an hour you wake up and can’t get back to sleep and so you lay about, or read, or do something else until you are so tired that you sleep, again only to sleep for an hour and start all over again. Yeah, I don’t sleep a lot at night. This is not something that is comfortable to me since I work, I go to school, I have my own projects I am working on and want to move forward with, and in the end I am frustratingly inactive during the vital parts of the day and asleep when I need to be awake – and forcing myself to be awake to try to get sleep regularly isn’t working either.

I have now been working at Borders Books, Music and Café for a little over three weeks now and things are going good. Garth, he’s the store manager, took me aside the other day to tell me what a great job I am doing. He said that Paul (general manager) wanted to move some of the cashiers to other positions within the store and he specifically wanted to see me advance. Apparently I have turned one or two heads around that place.

How can the chicken come before the egg, or, inversely, how can the egg come before the chicken. Both items are integral to the other. There is no one before the other. No chicken and then egg or egg and then chicken. What this is called is a conundrum. The question is designed to make someone think.

It is Sunday and the LDS General Conference has just ended. This is the first time in a lot of years that I have not watched or listened to all of the sessions. I do not work, as a rule, on weekends and in coming to New Hampshire I’ve discovered that this rule, of mine, is neither hard nor fast as I now work Saturday’s. In fact, the days off I seem to be getting, at present, are associated with my school schedule and Sunday’s. I refuse to work Sunday’s.
