Lately I've been having trouble remembering things. I run a mail room for my unit, which is currently deployed to Afghanistan. Memory loss is a serious issue when a fuck up can be a federal offense. I find myself forgetting where I was going when I go to accomplish something, and end up sitting around for 10 minutes while I try to figure it out again. I keep forgetting who has mail and who doesn't, which is just adding to my stress level. Do I need to see a doctor, or am I just overworked and underslept?

Lately, I've found myself wondering why I continue to use Microsoft products. I'm not a fan of closed source software, but for some reason, moving from Windows Vista to Kubuntu for gaming just seems... daunting. I wonder things like whether or not I'll be able to get all the drivers I need for my hardware. Or how I'm going to make Unreal Tournament 2004 or World of Warcraft work on the system. I've heard of Wine, but I don't understand it. Maybe I should just resign myself to using corporate software because of simplicity. P.S. Fuck Bill Gates... and Steve Jobs.
