Powdered Non Sequitur Man

Heh. Two women just walked by, laughing and giggling with their arms around each other. When they saw our No On 36 lawn sign, they pointed and waved. Yay!

…being able to wander out of the office for a quick snuggle break.

1078 new messages in my catchall email address, which I hadn’t bothered checking in… well, I guess about 2 weeks now. For me, anyway, that’s a lot of email.

This new iBook does a Wrong Thing. We typically have two users logged in at the same time. Both are configured to ask for a password after waking from sleep. If we log in as the same user that was active when the iBook went to sleep, there’s no problem, but if [...]

I wasn’t going to post this, but now that fawnapril mentioned it in *her* LJ, I might as well get it over with.
I had a strange dream this morning. I don’t think I was physically present in the dream–it was more like watching a weird thing on TV. It was basically a montage [...]

New computer! 14″ iBook, 1.2GHz, .75GB of RAM, 60GB HD… and I can get online from my own house again! Yay!

…I don’t think it was just the break; I think I may have just run full-bore into the limits of my own comprehension of math. I took Calculus 2 (integral calculus, course description here for the curious) over the summer and managed a B only because my instructor taught math as more or less [...]

<whine>I take a couple of days off and my math book might as well be written in Kanji. Add this to my realization this morning that I’m not actually sure where that backup DVD is–it might just have been sitting in the drive–and I’m feeling like a colossal fuckup today.
I just want to go [...]

[see also part 1.]
After a routine trip back from the airport, we arrived home. The short version is: our house was burglarized.
Someone had time to come in through the one window that didn’t have an effective latch (it does now: next time they’ll actually have to break something to commit B&E).
They got [...]

Stupid computer at the other campus ate my post, so I’m composing this one in Notepad…
Spent several days in Sacramento, which was not as bad as it has sometimes been, and got to do quite a lot of work to make a wedding happen, which was actually quite gratifying and fun.  The wedding went as [...]

So I went to get my financial aid check today… and it’s about $450 bigger than it should be. On the one hand, this gives me more money to play with now (even though I’ll be all responsible and stuff and not buy the iPod that I physically crave every time I have to [...]

So in the process of copying my toast for the reception into several different places, including my electronic brain, I came across a set of highly cryptic notes we’d taken on a vacation in 2001. During which, apparently, fawnapril said, and I quote:
“How many times has a monk tried to convert you with free [...]

…well, so far, the 17 units of school are seeming almost manageable.
So naturally, I’m going to take a few days off so I wind up behind again.
Why would I do such a thing, you ask? Well, because whether or not they’ve figured out what last name they’re going to have come Thursday morning, misterjustin [...]

Though I may forfeit some of my geek cred by saying this, I would like it to be generally known to all of you that I DO NOT LIKE CALCULUS.
That is all.

Rock on, SpaceShipOne! Even if you can’t figure out what the space bar is for, you won the $10 million Ansari X prize! Go you!
