This week has been a bit crazy for me with most of my sim rides being late at night (9-12ish) meaning I’m getting an idea of what it’s like for people that work the late shift. In the midst of this I’ve also attempted to implement a new policy of limiting my time spent on the computer. What this means is that I’ve had to focus my time on good writing and good information. Here’s the quality stuff I’ve read in the past couple weeks.
