It has been a long while, world.  Did you miss me, members of the faceless throng?First, two reasons why I love xkcd.comI secretly hope that this might happen to me someday while at work.roflcopter. This past week has been especially busy, which a dash of crazy for good measure.    It’s been one of those weeks …

Ruminations on Geek Chic-ary from 2005

At CnC last night, Mr. Penny and I started talking about computers again. The conversation was peppered with such terms as “Texture and Lighting”, “SLI”, “3D Marks”, and the fondly remembered “3Dfx Voodoo ______.” Anyway, it got me thinking about how these days it’s actually cool to be nerdy.  (I actually came up with a …

Retail Therapy

Apparently, every present I buy must be either: a) a book, or b) something musical. There are always rare exceptions to the rule, of course.. which probably should’ve just been given it’s own c) header.  Fine…. c) video game related. Today must have been the single longest shopping spree I have ever been on.  Maybe …

Prevailing thought from yesterday: Never become complacent.  Never think that everything is peachy-keen in the world… because the simple truth is: things are pretty fucked up. Once you become complacent… it’s means you’ve become blind.  You’ve turned away from the world’s problems to focus on your own.  And sometimes… that can be just as bad …

Wow… it’s been a whole 5 days. First things first.  Disneyland.  Brownies.  Doozy. So let’s just say that never before have I been put out of commission by some quality baked goods. As soon as I woke up in a pool of my own drool, I looked up info on delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol overdosage on the internet. …

Super Senior Woes

So… this week has been one of the longest weeks… ever.  Curiously, this week has only really been 4 days long because of veteran’s day.  But it sure felt like the entire 5 days.. plus more. Well not really.. because even if it was a long week, it still went by really really fast.  I …

It’s 12:50 am, Thursday morning… guess where I am.  I’ll give you a couple of hints… 1)I’m not at home in my comfy chair, 2)I’m surrounded by a whole lot of computers that aren’t mine. Yes everyone, I’m in the illustrious UCI 24 hour computer lab, the place we like to call NACS.  God forsaken …
