I tried to power through last night; stayed up til half-past "Oh fuck" in the morning, but passed out on the keyboard. When I woke up at 0h-three:mumblety-mumble in the morning, there were 2 hard drives left in the box and my face looked like a belgian waffle.
Strangely, at an hour past lunchtime today, I am in no rush whatsoever to get back to those last three drives. I'm just... numb.

I think I may have burned out my "Forensics" circuit.
Haha, been there myself before, SWMBO is now used to me crawling into bed at anything after 3am, she finally learnt that nagging me to go to bed doesn't work Once I start something I like to try and finish it off.
If it don't finish me off first
Yeah, my wife doesn't nag about anything except me cussing in front of the kids, and she's right to. Doesn't stop me though; just slows me down... If I can't cuss at all... damn, might as well just wrap a bag around my head.
I've been chasing the sun a little too long for my own health already; I turn head-achy and grumpy if I don't get my 7 hours beauty rest.
Once a country boy, always a country boy; up with the chickens and asleep the same.

mnem helped start my day with a good laugh and suddenly all I have to get through today will be easy now.
I'm glad I could brighten someone's day; I was at the point of "If I don't laugh about it, I'm just gonna crawl back under my rock and wait for the end of days..."
I learned most of my life philosophy from following Robin Williams; he was always looking for the funny we all overlook. It is my firm belief that if you can't find 10 new funny things every day in the world around you, you just aren't looking.
In other news...The hard drives are done; a couple dozen going off to the Goodwill, and I pared the keeper pile down to an even dozen. The rest were rent asunder for their valuable metals and my own peace of mind. As you can imagine, the last few days have put me in a strange humour, and evidently released some pent-up creative energy.
Here you can see a contented MagnaDragon as he contemplates his hoard before curling up for a nap...mnem
My wife says she married me because I make her laugh; all the applause I need for a lifetime.
