I went to bed rather late last night, and I woke up quite late today.. :) I woke up in just enough time to make it to my 2pm class. Now I am chilling here, trying to decided whether or not to eat yet… Not very motivated in general.

They are showing SCTV on NBC!

I will watch this, then go to bed.

Ok, the crew over at Slashdot decided to run a story stating that Freshmeat updated their site design. I mean, come on…. Either you are a Freshmeat user, and you will find out simply by visiting the page, or you aren’t and don’t care.

In less irritating news, I stopped back by the Print & Postal Hub, and the helpful guy from yesterday (not the sped) was there, and told me that he would order the translucent paper for the marquee and it would be in on Friday. So the house should have the new marquee installed by Friday!

I downloaded a live Mr. Bungle MP3 the other day, and it was encoded at 192k, but like, it was an audience recording, and it sounds like the person smuggled the DAT into the club in their ass and didn’t bother to take it out for the show. They could have encoded it at 32k and it wouldn’t have made a difference….

I slept in way late this morning, but was woken up by a phone call from Chris. That’s ok, there are certain people allowed to wake me up. :)

I haven’t really gotten in swing yet, I need to prepare for Calc later today…. After that, there are a few things I want to tackle in AliveJournal… I am trying to get one little thing done on it every day, since I haven’t many large chunks of unassigned time in the past week or so..

Now, however, I am gonna go grab some chow.

Today was pretty productive, especially for being the toughest day of the week for me… I talked to the folks, I faxed that stuff, I talked to Chris, I worked on AliveJournal, I went to my classes, and I watched Junkyard Wars. I am pretty tired, however, and I don’t want to go to long tonight given my twisted sleep schedule this weekend….

I like oatmeal.

Earlier today I had to go fax a letter to my Insurance Company to tell them to cancel my policy. I decided to take a walk over to the new Print & Postal Hub in the Crossroads building. I hadn’t had a chance to really explore the new building, and I only had a few minutes between classes to send the fax. The guy there was very nice and helpful, and while I waited for the fax to go through, we started talking about random stuff..

CSH purchased an arcade machine towards the end of the summer. It was in pretty beat-up condition, but it was only \$100… So James Kieliszek has been working on refurbishing it (it has been a very tedious process). He recently completed a refinishing of the entire control surface (lots of sanding and painting), and it looks beautiful. He did up a new design for a replacement marquee (the top glass on the arcade machine), and so it occured to me that this print shop might be able to help. I asked the guy, and he is able to print 40" wide pages and as long as you need… He can also print on to this rad translucent paper in that size… So I figured we could print the marquee on that paper and attach it to (plexi)glass.

I got back after class and talked to James, and we decided to walk over there, print the stuff out, and grab some chow at the new eatery. We walked over there, but unfortunately, the guy I had talked to earlier had left and some student was working. He didn’t know how to work the printer, so it was kind of a wasted trip… But the food at the Crossroads is pretty good, and the atmosphere in the eating area is really cool. So it wasn’t a total waste, and James and I are going to try again tomorrow afternoon, so….

Almost time to go off to my Billiards class…. That class is usually relaxing, and I hope it is today as well… I have been getting slowly better at the game, hopefully that will improve as the quarter moves on. This weekend is catching up with me, and I should have really gotten more rest. I am really tired right now, and I still have 2 more classes to go today. :)

I am looking forward to this upcoming visit, since Chuck is going to visit (weather providing). In chem lab I was daydreaming about things to work on for AliveJournal. Last Thursday I spent a decent chunk of time trying to betterify the code I had written for music and moods, and I ran into a brick wall…. I had reverted the code and had just gone with what worked, but I think I am going to give it a second try (I hate letting code beat me.. :P).

You know it is going to be a bad morning when you wake up to your alarm clock and sit in bed for a minute trying to figure out what is making all that noise… I had the most foul taste in my mouth this morning, it probably has something to do with my shitty diet this weekend… Friday I had taco bell, Saturday I had taco bar at the commons for lunch and Nick’s for dinner, and Sunday I had buffalo wings, pizza, and cheese.. I am hoping that something decent is offered at the commons for lunch, cuz I need it. :)

My lab this morning was ultra-bogus…. I am gonna take a nap before lunch now. I feel like crap.
