Yeah so it's my birthday, and I guess I'll write something to mark the occasion. Maybe I should reflect on my own mortality now that I'm in my mid 20s. I've read that after 25, the rate of cell death exceeds the rate of cell replacement. I'll be sure to put up a new picture showing just how much I've aged. I just managed to...

So I guess I've been pretty scarce everywhere in my life except work and school. I have to say I'm really enjoying being a biochemist.

I'll still be a freak, just a freak in a lab coat.

So a lazy summer has been great and all but I'm really jonesin for classes to start. I want to finish my biochem degree sometime this decade. I need the mental workout and routine that classes bring. I guess as I get closer to finishing I need to think about the science tattoo a little more.

I'd like to get away from earth awhile
And then come back to it and begin over.
May no fate willfully misunderstand me
And half grant what I wish and snatch me away
Not to return. Earth's the right place for love:
I don't know where it's likely to go better.
I'd like to go by climbing a birch tree
And climb black branches up...

Let's see. 2 weeks ago I saw David Bowie, which rocked my world just as I was recovering from a serious rocking the week before delivered by Squarepusher. Then a week ago I was in New Orleans for Jazz Fest which rocked my world from 180 degrees the other way. Then I had to content with the insanity of exams. But now it's quiet. I...

Saw him on four twenty-one
Live bass rocked my world.

That had to be one of the most amazing shows ever. Watching him just play with gear would have made me happy, but seeing him smack away on his bass has left a huge fucking smile on my face that is making my cheeks hurt. Still.

I want to fuck you in...

I'm finally from behind the 8-ball in my classes. Such a good feeling. I decided today that I will pursue a PhD. Academia is where I fit in best and I can see myself doing research and giving lectures for the next 30 or 40 years.

My friend and ex-girlfriend Rebecca emailed me last night and told me about the Israeli/Palestinian film fest she's putting...

Bleh. I hate how busy and stressed out class makes me. I've had to take a hiatus from just about everything else. Now that the weather is getting nice I need to go hike around the woods for a few hours. Maybe this weekend...

I'm off to New Orleans tomorrow for Zooloo 10. My schedule consits of fishing, blak tie Mardi Gras ball, Laser Show, Parades, another Laser Show, and getting back on a plane on Tuesday. Yikes.

The posts are gonna be sparse for a while I'm afraid. 2 unfun classes are kicking my ass around and my research project is taking about 10 hrs/week. Pics of silk pajamas, new pics of the baby laser, and pics of my new extra short haircut coming soon. Keeping busy keeps me out of trouble
