For five years, my desktop computer, the mighty Iron Dragon, has served me well. On it i logged thousands of hours of computer games, downloaded hundreds of episodes and movies, and generally had a good time with computing. However, all good things must end, and i have decided to finally take old Iron Dragon out behind the chemical shed and ( Read more... )

I just finished hp6, thereby completing my task of reading harry potter 1-6 before the 7th book comes out. Hell, i did it with 36 hours to spare!

I can't believe you guys all had to wait so long after finishing 6 before you got to read 7. If i had to wait more than a week, i'd probably have gone insane :)

Tomorrow night is going to kick ass!

-Last week, i went to witness the wedding of two very cool people. Following the ceremony/reception, a bunch of people went to a local bar to hang out some more. While there, I did carbombs with a 55 y/o woman, mother of four. She totally wasted me. It was awesome; she gives me hope for the future. As we were stumbling out of the bar that ( Read more... )

-Last night kicked some major ass; we had a huge turnout at dg, with me, sar, d, luci, casyup, air, t-thingie, drew, t-thingie's sis (whio just turned legal), sus, dan,... hell, even brent was there for a bit (with his just-while-i'm-visiting-for-the-summer cbr 900). The music was passingly good (at least two good sets of min 3 songs), but the ( Read more... )

-I decided to keep my tutoring job after all. While i was looking around for a replacement, i found that i just couldn't match the pay without more than doubling my hours. Also, nearly every other position required weekends. Ugh. I'll take my 15 hrs a week tuesday-friday, even if it is a 45min commute each way ( Read more... )

So, after devoting three days of my life to learning about motorcycle operation and safety, then passing a couple of tests, I am now nearly officially licensed to operate my bike ( Read more... )

It seems my rather long bout of depression/anxiety has finally lifted, and i blame it on this last week. It's incredible how much of a change can come so quickly simply through interaction with incredible people.

And sex. Lots of sex.

Now, i'm off to write three papers. If i finish them by friday, i get a motorcycle.

Go extrinsic motivation!

Last night kicked sooooo much ass. As planned, i went to dg with many of my friends. Sar and i departed from csus around 8:30, expecting heavy traffic into sf due to the 880-80 maze collapse, but were pleasantly surprised with the lightest commute ever into the city (all the other drivers must have been scared off). We seriously made it to dg at ( Read more... )
