As I sit in the VLSI lab waiting to meet with Prof. Harris and the rest of the Clay-Wolkin group, I thought I'd post my Geek Code on this blog. Ya know, just for fun.

What's the matter with southern California, eh? It was 81 degrees Fahrenheit here yesterday! It's FEBRUARY! The way I understand it, that means snow and ice. At the very least, shouldn't it be cold enough to require long pants? Crazy weather…

So, only one more day left in the week, and I've only got two classes. Then it's the week-end! Woo!

I almost forgot to mention… I bought a guitar! I was looking for something small and dorm-room-ish and ended up narrowing it down to either a Martin Backpacker, a Little Martin, or a Baby Taylor (of either the mahogany or spruce variety). After playing all three, the Backpacker sounded like it was being played from inside a tin can and the Little Martin sounded like it was underwater. Both Babys sounded absolutely excellent, and I ended up going with the mahogany for its slightly richer tone and great look. So far, it's been treating me pretty well, but I'll keep …

Hello again invisible readers. Just thought I'd relate all of the terribly interesting things that have been happening lately…

• Chemistry test today. Could have been much worse. Trust me. Quantum chemistry can get hairy, but it didn't.
• Did some more work on CSS/PROFILE today. Eugh. Can't the various people who want to know about my finances (IRS, Department of Education, College Board, Harvey Mudd, Bank of America, etc.) just get together and only make me go through all of this once instead of a million times?

• Also watched yesterday's Stargate SG-1 …

So, what's going on with the site, you ask? Well, I updated phpbb and changed that around a bit. Cool new ranks. And I'm contemplating rewriting the site in ruby, since I made my hosters install mod_ruby. If I do, then it'll be really cool. But time will tell on that particular project. Until then, enjoy browsing my vast informational resources. :-)
