None of us were fully functional today. Sometime late this afternoon, while I was still trying to get myself moving, I mentioned to my wife that I was a bit fuzzy today, and she said she had the same problem–and my son missed the bus going in and coming home, so apparently he wasn’t doing entirely so well either.

It doesn’t help that the e-mail volume is up slightly and the density up significantly. Much of this is temporal anomalies stuff, the new Sarah Conner Chronicles show has sent people to the web in search of time travel stuff, and they’re finding my pages and asking questions. There’s also been an upsurge of discussion on a minister’s list in which I participate, two subjects becoming hot at the same time. It took several hours to get through the e-mail, and I abandoned the effort to rush off to take my mother-in-law shopping very late in the evening.

But then, I never am entirely on top of everything on Monday, so that’s not surprising. Let me see what else I can accomplish.

Today’s mail included the notification that someone had posted to my blog–the other blog, the Harry Potter blog connected to my MySpace (which is here, if–in fact, whether or not–anyone cares). She read my predictions, and posted to the final entry, Spoiler Scorecard, to congratulate me on my predictions.

I attempted to post a reply comment, but the system wouldn’t take my comment in reply, so I messaged her instead to thank her. Apparently she found me through the Temporal Anomalies site, I presume because of the Prisoner of Azkaban analysis and not as part of the recent inrush of Terminator fans inspired by The Sarah Conner Chronicles.

Did I mention that last night’s Collision rehearsal went really well? We got through the first three songs decently (not fabulously), and then took the fourth from “nobody knows nothing” to playing it beginning to end with minimal problems, in less than an hour. I was pleased.

I’ll be even more pleased if I can get some sleep tonight and make it to church this weekend, so let me stop dawdling here and move ahead.

I did have some time to spare last night, but apart from taking a turn at the dishes and making sure everyone got supper, I put most of it into business matters: I attended to polishing the meeting minutes for the two recent directors meetings which the secretary missed. I also had to run an errand which had me sitting somewhere long enough to do a bit of editing on the Romans exegesis.

This morning I managed to complete the overly complicated registration process for IMDB board to post concerning The Sarah Conner Chronicles–a show I did not watch and have not decided to watch, but for which I’ve already been contacted and questioned. I posted there in response to a thread in which my Terminator temporal anomalies page was mentioned.

I’m hoping to get a bit of extra time today also, but we’ll see how that goes.
