Beautiful day! Spent inside hammering on the research plan for my paper, fidgeting, taking a break to eat (Baja Fresh!), had D. look it over and proof, added some sentences to the plan and getting more uncomfortable, fidgeted some more...
Needless to say the Pride parade and other Fun Stuff(TM) slipped completely away.
Somehow I've got to stretch this thing out to one page. Unfortunately, everything I know about ALL operating systems fits on less than half a single-spaced 8 1/2"x11 sheet :(
Going to take a break and exercise, then perhaps hammer a bit more. Dammit, I can't even get out the gate on this thing..

Seriously ... I know you'll manage it. Glad to see you have the wisdom to take a break and let your mind reset itself ... far better than forcing yourself to keep banging at it past the frustration point (I've always found that my brain's back burner does a far better job of figuring things out than the consciously-directed thinking bit at the front counter does).
