It’s 01-01-01… It’s a binary year, enjoy it…
Not looking forward to going back to Rochester tomorrow… Perhaps it’s just me being bitchy, but I am so tired of being there…
I just made a Taylor Ham & Cheese sandwich, which is damn-difficult to find outside of Jersey (at least, a good one is hard to find).
Should I work on putting more information on my webpage, like bio info, links, and shiz? Does anyone actually care about me that much?
I headed over to Chris’ house today so we could exchange gifts…. I gave her a book on OSPF and I also took a Christmas Tape that she loves and put it onto CD (and spent many moons cleaning up the audio) because it is out of print (and was never available on CD in the first place). She gave me 2 DVD’s (Seven and Jurassic Park) and a book on “The Sopranos” (which looks pretty cool, and I hadn’t heard of)..
I am all excited, I have delivered a few gifts now to a few people, and my Christmas spirit is definately in full swing now…
We are going out to see all the family tomorrow, and we are getting to stay in on Christmas day… Unfortunately, this is because my mother has to work on Christmas day… Blow.
I fell asleep around 2am last night…. I was in a total coma until about 5am, when I woke up to excruciating pain in my right arm. I tried to will myself out of it, but that didn’t work. I kinda hoped it would go away until 6am, when I finally got up for some drugs.
Luckily, my mother (Nurse Jane Fuzzy-Wuzzy) was already awake (seeing my sister Larissa off to her last day of class), and she prescribed some Motrin and a heating pad, which eventually did the trick, and I passed back out… I woke up today around 11:30a, and my arm is fine now… Bizarre..
I only have one class today…. I have 3 tomorrow. I wish I could pack all the classes from tomorrow into today so I could just leave hell…. er, Rochester sooner..
Wow… Remember how I said the ‘spirit’ wasn’t quite there yet? Well, it has arrived to an extent, and now I really don’t want to go to class tomorrow. I polished off the lab report that’s due earlier today, and I am all caught up, but I just don’t want to go to class. This god-damned 8am class is killing me… It is boring as hell, and it’s during my normal sleep cycle.
The Holiday Party rocked, much fun was had by all, food was good, and it was fun seeing a bunch of geeks dressed up. Pictures will be available soon.
James pulled a power-play at CSH’s Secret Santa, getting the infamous can of corn from my parents and giving it to me up the ass of a stuffed bear. Caught me completely off guard… Now I have to think up yet-another retaliation….. :P
i am really tired, but I can’t sleep at all either…
….and I still haven’t eaten anything… :P
I am just in a bad mood today, and I honestly can’t really justify it. I mean, I have a Calc quiz in an hour and change, but that isn’t really my problem… It could be lack of good sleep, but I felt good when I woke up.
Perhaps it’s just PMS.
…..but 8am class rips my head apart…. :) Jetlag and this new schedule are working in concert to really make my life complicated right now. :) I assume that once my body readjusts to the timezone, and my mind adjusts to waking up at 7am instead of noon, things should get better.
It’s early in the quarter, so I am still in that “not much to do” state of mind…. I am going to leverage this to my advantage and do some Calculus this weekend… Man, I really wish I had a professor who spoke english. :) My classes this quarter don’t seem too bad so-far, but I guess that it is still a bit early to pass judgement.
In theory, Jon and I are headed back to Imaging Science around 12:30pm for another round of Junkyard Wars on the big screen. Unfortunately, right now I am less than motivated to do anything… :)
I am also going to try and wrap up my work on phase 1 of Drink (which means getting it back to the classic Drink functionality, dropping drinks over the network when asked to). It turns out that the TINI board does not support either ObjectOutputStream or ObjectInputStream. Of course, I would have known this had I just paid attention to the TINI API Differences. While the TINI API supports almost all of Java 1.1, there are a few differences. Fortunately, I was only using serialization in a handful of places, so I just have to hack out a different solution. I used Serialization because it was easy, not because it was necessary. :P
it’s too early.
Ok, I like Robin Williams, but that movie blows. My sister, Larissa, and my Mom are currently watching it. Fortunately, life in the dorms have built up my ability to ignore irritations, so…
This break has been great so far… I haven’t done much of anything… Last night I stayed up until about 2:30am hacking on Drink and talking to Chris which was cool. I woke up at 2pm this afternoon (I almost hit 12 hours)… I guess I am catching on all the lost sleep I accrued this past quarter. I found out that I got an ‘A’ in my Operating Systems II course, which is exciting, because our whole team worked our tails off all quarter.
Chuck came over today and we just chilled, and ended up going for a little ride to the Rockaway Mall and Barnes and Noble… Ran into a girl from High School who I hadn’t seen in a few moons…
Bill Kuker hooked me up with his API for the drink hardware today, so I might work on finalizing that work up today. Most of the server is done, but I have simple stubs in the places where I needed to interact with the hardware.
