brain buffing

I’m in day 2 of a classic bout of flu.  So I’m steering clear of web server admin and directing my delirious attentions here in a sort of cursory round-up.

It’s been a busy week-and-a-bit with the new job.   All the grappling with new stuff leaves my synapses frazzled but I can feel my neurons getting leaner.  My curse of distractability is getting a battering as feeds go unread and my social networks are shamefully neglected.  I’ve no time at work and when I get home I’ve no inclination.  I’d rather polish brass while my head cools off.

There’s something particularly satisfying about restoring nice stuff that’s been abused.  Kind of like bringing in a rescued cat but without the hair-trigger claws and pools of piss.
