I finally tracked down a copy of The Logic of Failure, which the local library doesn’t carry. It’ s supposed to be an excellent book on why even experts fail at complex projects. I also have How to Solve It, a good on Mathematical Methods, and Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman!, on loan from Keith.

Tonight I spent most of the night cleaning up the mess that started to gather in my apartment. I feel a little bit better now that books aren’t laying in a stack on my floor and papers strewn across my sofa.

Tomorrow is a full workout day. ZG/L13 plans are looking pretty thin, unless someone can seriously motivate me to go out after 2 hours of self-inflicted hell.
