My days of excessive hedonism are behind me. I don't think my body is quite as forgiving as in my teenage years.

I've gotten into that mindset where I'm very consciously aware that I'm ageing, and that my duty is now to ensure I do it as slowly as reasonably possible.

Considering that my mother smokes like a chimney and is more wine than woman and still looks the way she does, I'm hoping for the best. I eat right and exercise, it's all a balancing game.

Yes, I think you've been blessed in the genetic department.

I got my father's build, and then half of his, and half of my mother's brains. The result is a mind quite gifted, yet prone to being in the clouds and just a tad unhinged.

Bit of a facepalm moment, but just realised I could just simply make money writing e-books and self-publishing them. With my specialist technical knowledge thanks to my job, it's not going to be difficult for me to cover a whole book on the subject.

I've written guides in the past, and I find it a breeze compared to creative writing. I don't think my brain can handle creative writing right now.

Perhaps my caffeine consumption had something to do with my sleep issues, since it's so variable. Yesterday I didn't have much, one cola and some green tea. Most days I have 3-4 cups of coffee and a few caffeinated sodas.

It depends on your overall tolerance. I'm pretty tolerant of the stuff, so it never affects my sleep. It does mess with my energy levels if I lower consumption, though.

I realized yesterday that by calling the elderly folks in my immediate area I could get them to send me checks. Creating a charity is so easy.

You could get into writing user guides and whatnot.

Probably could be a high tolerance. It's worst when I don't have a large amount of the stuff. Could be the opposite to you.
