Long time, no post. I guess I’ll give y’all some highlights.
-Went out to a church-based desert potluck and comedy/magic show with co-worker. It wasn’t my church, but hey, they combined three of my favorite things together. Comedy, Magic, and DESERT! It was good fun.
-Finally red Harry Potter and the half-blood prince. I refrain from speculation on pretty much anything, because it could all go either way, and I figure the only way to be sure is to just wait for the last book to come out.
-FINISHED ANOTHER FREAKIN’ CLASS! Image processing had its final last Friday, and I consider that puppy ‘stomped’. The final was pretty easy, I went in, did my thing, and left. I won’t get my grades for a few weeks, but I’m pretty sure I did at least all right, and this late in my student career, that’s all I’m looking for. One class left to go! I can taste the victory!
-Another chapter? Why yes. I guess reading a whole bunch of books over the past couple of days inspired me, but I rounded out chapter 8 last night (a bit late) and so you can view that here:
Chapter 8 Here!
As always, comments are appreciated, but do note that I don’t edit these things much before considering them done. This chapters pretty big, lot of stuff gets explained and the like. Go read.
-Work continues to be work. Except when its not. I have some time off to burn before August 30th, due to absurd company policy, and so I’m taking off much of the later half of this week as well as a couple of days later this month to visit grandparents. Hi grandparents! I’m very excited for that. I’ve only taken 10 hours time off all year, and most of that was a sick day or two. I’m ready for some vacation, and I suspect that I’ll end up burning most of in December, probably taking a week off just to not do anything…or to party…or just whatever. School almost done!
-Also, a brief salute to my sister. Several years ago she bought me a cd by a popular German rock band called Guano Apes. Last weekend I was going through some of my older music, looking for things to drum along to, when I stumbled upon their cd. I downloaded some drum tabs for one of their most rockin’ songs, ‘Lord of the Boards’ and *completely rocked out*. It turns out the drum part for that song is pretty easy to perform, and while I will admit that it’s great to be able to play complicated stuff well, it’s really satisfying to be able to play something *well*. I played through the song at least 5 times. It was great fun. So thanks, S.
