Friday evening. My mind is frazzled from a constant all-day stream of programming work. I sat down on some steps and read Ender's Game for three hours, enjoying the escape. I must learn to pace myself better - to leave some work for tomorrow instead of pushing myself to long hours of work. Balance in all things.

It is midnight. I'm going to relax with a couple more chapters of Ender's Game before retiring at half-past twelve. Then on to some additional work tomorrow morning, followed by a trip downtown, to the library.
