Not at peace last night. Weather? Maybe. The driving rain woke me up at around four this morning. I tossed and turned a bit, lay there listening to the pitterpatter on the roof, windows, leaves, sidewalk, street. Finally, at around 5:30, said to myself 'to heck with it,' and got up. Two (big) cups of coffee and some seriously overdue email later, here I am. I think that I'll last till about noon ish, then will just keel over onto my keyboard. That's the thing about 'running numbers' for a living. It can be very calming in good circumstances. In others, sleep-inducing.
