Funny… I don’t *feel* older.

7:20 a.m.

The alarm is blaring; time to get up. No, scratch that. Time for snooze.

7:29 a.m.

More snooze.

7:38 a.m.

OK, time to actually get up. Time for a shower, breakfast, and a quick read of the Journal before finishing up some homework.

10:00 a.m.

Arrive at class, held off site today at the ritzy Stanford Shopping Center. The assignment for MS&E 277: Creativity and Innovation: go to several stores as an observer and make notes about the experiences. Look at the lighting, smell the smells, feel the merchandise, listen to how the staff treats customers.

12:01 p.m.

Drive like mad — late for sailing class! Head over to the Stanford boathouse under beautiful skies. Once there, find out that the wind has picked up and that some of the sails are being repaired, so use racing team (i.e., really nice) sails. Go fast on the water. Go fast some more on the water. Woo!

3:05 p.m.

Drive like mad — going to be late for MS&E 288: Creating Infectious Engagement!

3:15 p.m.

Get there — on time. Deliver an absolutely astounding presentation to the class, teaching team, and guests from Facebook. Enjoy accolades. Listen to other groups’ presentations of highly variable quality.

6:30 p.m.

Dinner time. Spaghetti tonight. Look at the day’s Stanford Daily and admire photographs done by yours truly. Look at previous day’s issue. Bemoan forgotten white balance correction for the photo of a famous somebody.

8:00 p.m.

Watch most of Goodfellas for the first time.

10:12 p.m.

Watch the last few seconds of the landmark The Great Train Robbery to fully appreciate the homage at the end of Goodfellas.

10:40 p.m.

Finish writing blog post. Worry about weak plot. Decide it isn’t a problem. Sleepy time.

I can distinctly remember a time but a few weeks ago when I relaxed away the days and slept without a care through the nights.  Ah, relaxation.

Compare that with now, when all I have time to write on my blog is a cop-out post about being busy.  Good times!

Remember that webcomic I drew for a couple of months last summer called Zoitz?  The one that is on an indefinite hiatus?

Well, for the past nine months it has been averaging less than a dozen visits per day, mostly random search engine traffic.  That changed a few days ago.

While I was backpacking at the Grand Canyon, it got picked up on Stumbleupon, and it’s been averaging over 3,000 visits per day (and 5,500 page views per day) since then.  Exciting, I guess.

If I did revive it, I would do so with a new style.  I wouldn’t feel right continuing to rip off the xkcd style.  Too bad I don’t feel inspired to draw anything new.
