I played Rock Band for 6 hours last night. Now my wrists hurt.

Did you learn a lesson?

Tsk tsk.
I'm sick today. Like, my-albuterol-is-useless sick. And I don't have any sick leave yet. I'm hoping my boss and I can work something out so this isn't an unpaid day.
It's nice to know that I can cook meals that look as good as they taste. One of these days I might have the willpower to photograph one before I eat it.
I just donated $25 to Obama's campaign. It's the most politically active I've ever been, although that may be due to being thoroughly confused for two and a half years about when the Hatch Act did and did not apply to my actions.
Zarth got zotted? What the fuck?

Oh, yeah. I totally got into a fight over some chick's cooter shots. It was highly absurd.
starbuck42:
It starts here.
I am apparently the only person in the world who refuses to play the game. It drives me nuts. Every time someone says "I just lost the game" it makes me want to stab people (namely whoever said it but once the blood lust sets in...you know).

I figure I should post in this occasionally, so here's two bits of major life updates!
First, I got a job in the San Diego area (Sorrento Valley, for those in the know) as a code monkey. Yay, code!
Second, I just paid the down payment on my very first apartment! It's 664 square feet in a really nice spot in Pacific Beach. I move...

I almost had sex on the roof of the physics building once too but pretty much all the grad students have a key to it seemed a titch risky.

How did it go?
The Humanities and Social Sciences department at my school just put up my photography show. It's going to be up until December 8 and it looks great. This is really exciting.
necia:
Yay! That's so exciting! Do you have any examples to post here, perhaps?
In re: the finger crossing . . . It depends on how long the hiring cycle is. I can't give you a definite timeframe, but I appreciate your contribution to the cause.

Yes I would say that qualifies you.
FYI, I'm a ways away from all the LA fires, so I just have to deal with smoke. My family voluntarily evacuated from San Diego yesterday, but things in their area have taken a turn for the better, so they went back this afternoon.
salome:
Good, I'm glad you and your family are okay.
Thank you for the kind words, they mean a lot.

Thanks.
I am going to Florida for work until next Wednesday. Trust me, it's not glamorous, although I hope it will be fun (no guarantees on that, though). I may or may not be in contact while I'm gone.

No, it's not as bad. I know I'm for this serial killer guy. That's way worse. 
Life update: I'm spending the summer working at Heat, Light, and Sound Research in sunny San Diego (little known fact: it is actually impossible to prepend San Diego with an adjective other than sunny). I'm living at home, which means I can keep even more of my already quite comfortable salary. School starts back up at the end of August, and my final semester looks...

What the fuck???? That is RETARDED. Re-tard-ed.
I like your parody shirt.

I wanted more than this, and I don't think that's wrong of me.
When I'm depressed, I tell strangers. It's so much easier. The friends I can tell are just so few and far between.

starbuck42:
This is very true. I can tell random strangers (aka people on the internet) intimate details of my life I wouldn't be able to tell the vast majority of most of my friends.

Yes, let's hear the story about the t-shirt and women's college!
