One unanticipated consequence of little Jodi's arrival is that my brain has turned to mush. Less sleep means that I usually hit the wall around 2 in the afternoon and want to hide somewhere and take a nap. And by the time I get home, I feel like I have little mental energy left. I haven't done any writing since she's been born and I barely stay awake for the NBA game in the background as I feed and change her.

I'll have to get back to the writing thing at some point or at the least an occassional blog entry. It's good mental exercise. Right now I'm not keeping in shape in any sense of the word.
