I'm not looking forward to my 5/5 review... I've been getting up rather late myself for the last couple of weeks :-( In theory, I work Monday to Wednesday from 7am to 6pm, with a half an hour for lunch and a couple of 15 minute breaks for tea, which would give me 4 days off if I wasn't also writing a book, keeping a blog, and providing teaching or speaking appointments most months. I have another post on time management in the pipeline for this coming weekend you might enjoy... I havehad the same problem until a few months ago, and wrote about it most recently at my blog.

I think libtool might have pieces of the necessary mojo squirreled away in a dozen bits of m4 code that expands into bash code that can be evaluated by posix sh... ;-) I didn't realize you were keeping a blog until you favourited me at technorati by the way!
