A classic Monday: I went to bed waaay too late, the power went out during the night, so my alarm didn't go off this morning (and I was too tired for my customary sort-of wakeup at the normal time to notice), and I got in to work an hour late.

But ...

I went to bed late because I went to an awesome concert by Peter Gabriel in San Jose last night. He may be getting old (the concert is named the "Growing Up Tour"), but he still has all the energy he ever had. And the stage effects were pretty darn neat. And it was extremely satisfying to be in a huge arena (yes, it was an arena concert. shut up), and feel like you were in a small venue because the stage was in the middle, so everyone was relatively close to the performers. And that goatee is pretty cool.

I have a great friend who thinks to call me when he's at the airport to make sure that I woke up, since his power went out during the night and he thought mine might have done the same.

The drive in was beautiful, what with the sun valiantly trying to get through the storm clouds ... and there was no traffic on the bridge.

I got to work earlier than expected, so I had time to eat something.

Still bone tired, though. Can't wait to get back home and go to bed. *zzzzzzz*
