Well I was going to make a long, involved New Year's resolutions post, but that will have to wait for a bit because I am busy packing! For Chicago! Where I will be going to a "bang on pots and drunkenly sing Auld Lang Syne topless till 3am" type of party, then a "roast fowl and live violin music in dinner jackets" type of party. I will get to be ( Read more... ) -
Aren't all rainbows the same?
Your rainbow is intensely shaded black, violet, and red.
What is says about you: You are a powerful person. You appreciate beauty and craftsmanship. You are patient and will keep trying to understand something until you've mastered it. You get bored easily and want friends who will keep up with you.

Quotes of the weekend
First, the one that sums up this weekend in its entirety: "BOURBON. FIX IT WITH BOURBON." (to which my drunk co-worker added: "cuifally," which apparently was meant to say "carefully.")
Several of the other good quotes to come from the LAN party involved the game xevil, which everyone should play. It's free, it's easy, it fits on a fucking floppy ( Read more... ) -

oh christ, i've been doing some work and i just realized that by the end of the semester (ie, two weeks and some change) i need to process 10 more ~30 minute audio files (only two of which I've started), run some statistics, and write 20 more pages or so.

My kind of town...
Chicago was amazing. Life is amazing. I have definitely decided that I am going to start applying for some jobs in Chicago (I will still apply to jobs in Madison as well). I was able to see everyone I wanted to see (minus one person who was kind of hung over the whole weekend), and I got to eat Greek food and sweet potato fries at Clarke's and ( Read more... )
