Happy 6am in the freakin' morning on Saturday
Bad news: because it's so hot and muggy here, I've been able to only sleep until 5:15am every morning, even on weekends before being too uncomfortable to stay in bed. Who knows what that does to my overall energy level.
Better news: I can get up early for work each day. Perhaps if I'm really ambitious I could go out and jog (or briskly walk) in the morning air each day. Don't keep your hopes up.
Even better news: When I get into that air-conditioned train and that comfy Amtrak chair, I might be so content physically I will have no trouble sleeping while on an overnight trip (usually very difficult) and I will be refreshed for my Vermont visit!
Anyway, so I just wanted to see if people were alive this early (it's 6:15 now)
Finally, as far as bringing things full circle, Ted Rall has a cartoon over the recently discussed pro-torture activism that I hate, and its a spot-on commentary on what's wrong with those t-shirts, as far as I'm concerned.
And he does generalize... as a warning... that's what cartoonists do, but in a much more light-hearted way than politicians resorting to demagoguery.
Let's see if I can get back to sleep.

Actually, that's my trick to sleeping while traveling (Because I am a worry wort and can never sleep on any bus/train/plane/even car.). I stay up the night before and by the time I take the trip, I am usually exhasted, and sleep the whole way. Good luck catching those ZZzzs...

Funny thing... when I went to Denmark while I was at Drake (I got a free trip for working on a project with my professor) I deliberately stayed up all night so I'd be completely exhausted on the long plane ride.
What I didn't prepare for was the most mind-splitting cries from a baby the whole 10 or so hours.
The train will be less cramped and I'll have more freedom of movement and the lack of altitude will not heard any little kids ears. So I think I'll be in good shape.
