One thing I realized the other day is that something I miss very much -- something that comes with a job -- is routine, so this week I'm trying to establish more of a routine...consistent bed times, consistent waking up times, consistent tasks for certain days, and so on. I'm not really sure why I mentioned that, but it's a slow news day.
