combatting jetlag

there is no easy answer to combatting jetlag. sometimes methods work, sometimes they don't. i try to shock my body back into local time.

i just flew back home a few hours ago. took the #62 local bus out of the airport (twice, went in the wrong direction the first time). got a good hot shower, in all of the four weeks away, not one hotel room had a consistant shower for more than two days. and ate some chinese food.

that lasted me until about 6pm local time.

for my plan to work i have to stay up until midnight.

my last real sleep ended at 7.30am monday morning addis time. (12.30a, new york time). sure i drifted in and out of sleep (at the museum, at the airport, after the horrible movies of the first flight, at the other airport, before the horrible movies of the second flight, after those horrible movies of the second flight) but i haven't been horizontal in so long.

the plan. fix my server. over the time away both my servers crashed and i have to figure out why and what i have to rebuild. i hope to get the email up, webserver (if you are seeing this i've succeeded), spam filters and scheduled services up. sleep devrivation may win or i may have to redo everything i did.

what were the movies? the reader -- put together well, but eh; twilight -- i want my 2 hours back for that; inkheart -- i don't care what e-guydrive says brendan frasier is terrible; he's just really not into you -- with that many stars, you think it would have been something done better.
