12 hours later -- i'm tired. the ramp was cold. the elements are NOT fierce.

did leave work til after 1:30 am today. got wrapped up in responding to an email from my mom. not going to go into details -- but i basically explained why i'm such a putz with money and i think i outed myself in the process. she did the typical parent guilt thing. i did the typical throw it back at ya thing. it wasn't pretty. we'll see what the outcome will be in the morning.
