    It is no secret that I’ve been looking forward to the DVD release of Star Trek since, well, the film opened early this summer. But when the wife and I were randomly flipping through channels last night and the usual pre-release commercial for the DVD ran with the tagline “Own it this Tuesday,” I immediately thought, “wow….that’s tomorrow,” thinking that it was Monday night, November 16.

    Today is not the 17th, nor last night the 16th. Since the onslaught of the day-after-day feeling of drowning in work and to-do lists that never end or never get finished—beginning when the acquisition occurred and which continues to snowball exponentially—I have slowly lost track of days. For a person who used to be able tell you the time of day—to the minute—if you asked hours into the day and hours since I last checked the time, this is quite troubling. Forget minutes, I’ve lost track of days.

    What will I be losing next?

    I miss a pint (or two) of Guinness after work each day. LOL!

    EDIT: 24 November 2009 @ 9:54am — Star Trek was more awesome (yeah, that awesome) than I (and Simone) ever expected! The extras in a separate BD disc were equally filled with awesomeness!
