I'm no stranger to writing, in fact I've written a few lengthy items of late. The type of writing that I am trying to do today though, it's a whole 'nother ball game. I'm trying to write a Theory Paper on Competing Network Logics. The main crux of the problem I'm having is that I feel exhausted.
The sad thing is, I have all afternoon just to write this paper. It's not due tomorrow or anything like that but it is due sooner rather than later. I am in crunch time as next week is the end of the semester and this paper does not give a rat's about my finals or my problems to anthropomorphize it a bit.
So, since I haven't written in this blog since our little baby was born, I thought I'd use it as a way to "jog my brain" and get me on track. I can tell you though, right now I'm not feeling any better than I was a few minutes ago. It almost feels like every thought is swimming through syrup in my brain. No, not the yummy maple stuff you are used to either. I'm talking about a cranium sized electrified fence worth of ozone and scorched smelling protein soup that anything less agile than electrons would stick in like a quagmire.
I can't talk about my brain anymore so I'll talk about something else. Baby Alexander is doing great. He's pretty much the cutest child I've ever seen. If you don't believe me I'd usually say I'd fight you if you don't agree, but that's not the case here. If you look at him you can't help but agree with me, you lose all free agency in the face of his cuteness and are rendered helpless to his overwhelming cute power. In the absence of his immediate presence you may attempt to disagree, but I have a thousand pics worth of his cuteness on my iPod Touch that will argue that you are wrong better than any of my words ever could. So no, I don't need to fight are argue with you, I'll just flash you a pic and rest my case.
He's over 9 Lbs now and gaining. He's still short for his age, and looking chunky to prove it, but it only adds to the overall effect: he's super cute. I went in to say goodbye to him this morning and I almost didn't leave for work because I was captured in the tractor beam of his utter adorableness.
So yeah, he's pretty awesome! You should come visit him.
Ok, I'm off to write a paper...or at least some words.
