For whatever reason, on be good to me day, I signed up for a bunch of trips among other things. Today I went to Toledo, Ohio. Though it is in the next state and all that, it isn’t particularly far away. The plan […]

I know I get very comfortable when I sit in a chair. I slouch, beyond normal amounts. I feel just peachy, but other people seem to find it amusing/alarming. I have been told by parents, friends, professors and tons of others to sit […]

Of course, I feel like the bravest guy in the world, but you’d realize what a chicken I really am and how irrational my fears are if I went into the details.

For some reason I’ve been imagining being shown round a gym.

Stick figures own expression.

Today was the first “be good to me” day. It was all about me, and I didn’t let anything or anyone ruin it. I have got to do this more often. I need it.

So here’s the thing. I was (unfortunately?) home early enough to catch the show last night. I say “I was early enough”, but what I probably mean is “I made sure I was early enough”. I could say it was pretty much a […]

Parenting style has a great impact on what kinds of people their children grow up to be, and how they live their lives. And by great impact, I obviously mean absolutely no effect whatsoever. I just spent like an hour on the phone […]

Watching OTHER people enjoy the benefits of blazingly fast connections at home just sucks. I hope they all die and rot in hell? No, nothing that extreme. Anyway, I am one of the calmest and rationalest people I know. I rarely get too […]

This is irritating. Picked arbitrary sources with different xml feed formats to test aggregate, but rediff’s output seems special and unhandleable by spycyroll. Spent some time trying arbitrarily hacked versions. No luck.

Yes, you’re obviously supposed to click the image.

Got things done to a decent enough level (as judged by someone who’d gone for some 50+ hours without sleep, so you never really know), and headed home for a while in the early afternoon. It isn’t much, but you do begin to […]

Apparently non-engineers need sleep. The library where I was at closed for the “night” at 5 AM. NOTHING ELSE AROUND WAS OPEN EITHER. What rot. No extremely late night almost morning bar, no breakfast place, no store, no BUILDING damn it. Stayed for […]

In more moments of mind blowing side tracking, I just came across some words (some six of those while I was not working reading another biography) that might go into the “insert relatively funny catchphrase here” placeholder, above.

Does the unhappy happy dance. Except he isn’t in the frame of mind or physical condition to make any sudden moves.
Stay awake for over 30 hours.
Feel all disoriented and sick.
Induce large […]
