The Benefits of a Late Start

Today is the day the company I work for moves the DOD Emall from its home at a commercial data center to a Defense Enterprise Computing Center (DECC) facility. I doubt that the information is classified but I'm not going to reveal which DECC facility we're moving to. Anyway, because the move is going to be a huge undertaking and will require most of the work be done after the sun goes down, I didn't have to be to work until 12:00 MDT.

I wish I could say I slept in, but I didn't and that's okay. I did something even better than catching a few extra winks: I barbecued a steak and fried some eggs outside and had steak and eggs for breakfast! (Sorry, no photos.)

I learned a few things this morning.

1. I can't eat a large breakfast. I couldn't bring myself to finish the 10-12 oz. steak and four AA large eggs.
2. The skillet grill attached to the BBQ works for cooking but the self-igniter does not work.
3. I don't enjoy eating a great meal by myself. Unfortunately, my wife had already left for work; I missed having her with me.
4. On the other hand, I only blog about things I do on my own so it may be beneficial—for the blog's sake—for me to do a few things solo once in a while.

I think I may have to make steak and eggs (or a morning barbecue) a fairly regular thing, though probably on Saturdays when neither the wife or I have to be anywhere too early.
