Oh hon, I am so going to bed right now. And yeah, I was up from about 3:30 to 4:30 this morning. I just now remembered that you've been having trouble getting your emails, so wanted to make sure it went through.

I was up until 3:30 too!
We need better bed habits.
And by that, I only sort of mean porn.
I'm so, so tired.
Thanks for checking. Don't stop doing that,just in case.
Well, I went to bed at 9:45 pm and slept until 3:30 am, then woke up for an hour, then back to sleep until the alarm went off. I think cocaine might be required to keep me up until 3:30 am at this point.
smonster, does Open Office not have a Project Management app in it? That would be my first thought.
Although ISTR finding some open-source PM software at some point several years ago, I don't remember the name at all.
I used to be quite good at Gantt charts, but MS Project is SO HORRIBLE to use, and it's all I have access to.
Ooo, I'll check Open Office. We have a program in the office, but there aren't any more keys for it.
So my boss and I might start a side business together. What could go wrong? It's an idea I had that he thinks is brilliant, and I'd never do it by myself, so we're going to discuss it over drinks.
Are you ready? I may have mentioned this in Bitches, it arose during one of my bouts of panicked unemployment insomnia brainstorming sessions... manufacture glass Mardi Gras beads locally from recycled beer and wine bottles.
I didn't realize there were glass Mardi Gras beads; I assumed they were all just the cheap plastic ones. (My experience of Mardi Gras, of course, being parties and whatnot thrown in Ohio, trying to simulate the fun of Mardi Gras without the actual NOLA and krewes and so forth.)
Glass beads would be cool, and recycled would be even cooler!
Back in the day they were glass, and glass ones are making a bit of a comeback. They're a coveted "throw," and think how much more coveted if they were local!
That would be totally awesomesauce!
Brilliant! Or should I say "Beerilliant!."
Recycled beads would be great. There would certainly be enough local beer and wine bottles.
You could find a local sheltered workshop to string the beads.
