I should be going to bed about now. It’s been a long day. And quite a few days since I’ve written for public consumption. Approaching two weeks.

Rest assured, that I have written much in that time, but I have been realizing that so much of what I need to write are things that I should not give to you here. It is not that they are secrets, but that they are specific. Specific to the Brotherhood and its mysteries, and those words come with their own burden of secrecy.

Too, I’ve been in a bit of a slothful funk. A few things have been coming up for me recently that have called for me to step up to the plate with a bit more focus. But being me, I can’t just step up. I need to sit down and stare at it for a little while. I need to let the dust dissipate so I can understand. I need to do nothing until I can see what needs doing.

This frustrates some people I know, but it is the way it works for me. The challenge there is that it is hard to keep some of the plates spinning while I turn my attention to the new plate. Too often I have to set everything down for a while, then pick it all back up, and add the new thing into the mix. I dropped everything for a good week while George was gone. I went to work and fulfilled my responsibilities, but by and large I sat and stared at things.

Now I’m focused again. At least for a few days. I’ve committed one evening a week to developing a workshop for the Brotherhood, and I’m hyper-busy at work again. I am taking a week off later this month, and my CTO wants the project I’m on pretty much done before then. That’s exciting, but it definitely offers a challenge I can rise to.

I need to sleep now if I’m to arise at a reasonable hour tomorrow. Hopefully more tomorrow night.
