Trust me, it won't ;^) I work full time at Connectione.com (my new company), full time as a consultant at IBM Austin in the Rapid Port Team, half-time as webmaster of the ICA site, the Oklahoma Clarinet Symposium site, the (soon to be released) Dallas Scuba site (Forest Aten, clarinetist in the Dallas Opera, is proprietor - and lets me have his spare season tickets to the opera along with supplying me with a second family - thanks, Forest if you're reading this!), and tech person for Klarinet lists.
In my spare time I get to talk to the wife & kids (via phone & IM - I'm in Texas, the wife & 2 kids are in Michigan - no, I'm not divorced, just residing where the work is - and one kid is in Ohio at Cleveland Inst. of Music).
Whatever time is left is spent here on Sneezy.
So - 8 hours for Connectione, 8 hours for IBM, 8 hours total part time ... no, I don't get any sleep ;^)
But I do enjoy my life, lemons and all, and the time I spend here is some of the best "quality time" anywhere. 2001 was my "annus horribilis" - if it wasn't for my extended family here I might have suffered a real bout of depression.
