Doomsday tech geeks, emails, and epiphanies

So I spent most of the day trying to fix a glitch on my mail server. For some reason the Feds thought it'd be a good idea to switch daylight savings time around this year and a lot of paranoid tech geeks tried to hype it up as a Y2K redux. You know, nukes launching, end of the world, et cetera, et cetera. Y2K7 or something. I laughed it off but apparently karma's a bitch. I guess my mail server software needed a patch and I didn't notice a problem until I started getting emails saying that today was Tuesday. I wasn't about to let Microsoft or the Feds steal a whole day from me, so I set out to unravel the glitch. Then again, considering it has taken me most of the day to fix the problem, I guess they stole the day after all. Karma. I will never again laugh at doomsday tech geeks.

I think I lost a few emails in the process, so if you sent me one that I haven't responded to anytime between March 11th and today, that's probably why. It's not cause I don't love you : )

Crossing my fingers that the server is alright, I went outside into the warm sunshine, noticing a gentle breeze dancing with the too-tall grass that will probably need cutting soon. The birds are singing, trying to awaken the budding trees that will get around to waking in their own time. Daylight savings and dawning spring and dancing blades of grass, you just know... It is all alright. It never wasn't.
