I am sorry I ignored you all weekend. Would you believe that I did not sit down at my desk even once yesterday, even though I was home all day waiting for a FreshDirect delivery that was three hours late? It’s true. I didn’t even read my mail.

Here’s the thing: when I am working full time, I am staring at a monitor full time, and when I come home from work all I want to do is look at something that isn’t a monitor. A lot of this has to do with my eyes, which are terrible. I try to do the dweeby eyestrain prevention crap your optometrist has probably told you about - stop looking at the screen for a minute or two every half hour, etc. But it doesn’t really help, even when I remember to do it (and normally I just work for three hours, take lunch, and then work for another four).

So I am sorry for ignoring all of your mail and news and links and weblog fodder and the rest of it. But not really that sorry.
