Another Friday

After getting up this morning and checking my email, I ended up giving Sarah a ride over to the place where she was getting her car inspected. I managed to make it back home in time to catch the bus to campus for late lunch. We went to Aladdin’s, which had a Mediterrainean [...]

Intelligent Design

I was gonna leave a comment on Kendra’s blog, but there are mysql errors or some such nonsense.

the whole intelligent design debate is really starting to worry me. is america really becoming jesusland?
i understand that some people who have religious beliefs may feel threatened by secular society telling them that they are bad/stupid/wrong. i [...]

An Odd Day

Last night, I got really into finishing my homework for Math 221. I got most of it done, although there’s still a little remaining. It’s been a while since I’ve buckled down and gotten some actual work done (probably not since the VR deadline). More importantly though, it’s been a really long time [...]

The Rest of the Day

After I got back from campus, I had some soup for lunch. Then I called the Alameda County Registrar of Voters. See, last year I got an absentee ballot from them via mail forwarding on my old address in Germany. Their documentation claimed that if I didn’t return the ballot that I [...]

More Swimming

After class this morning, I decided to go over to Bowman-Gray for a reduced swim. My cold is still with me, although it seems like I might have passed the worst of it now. I ended up doing 1000m in about 35 minutes, which is a fairly easy work out for me these [...]

Swimming

In fact, I did go swimming today. I figured since I have a relatively mild cold and since the cold meds seemed to be helping limit the amount of mucus I was producing to only a small amount, I was going to go anyways. Also, I knew I wouldn’t be able to go [...]

Sick

I have a cold. I am annoyed. Moreover, Sudafed seems to do nothing for it. Unless things miraculously improve in the next couple hours, I’ll have to put off swimming lessons at the Y tonight. Back to convalscence I suppose.

My Nose is Dying

Arg. My nose and throat have been acting crazy since yesterday at Aladdin’s. Once again, I forgot what exposure to excessive second hard smoke does to me now. Ever since living in Germany, I think I’ve developed an allergy to tobacco smoke. My throat is all scratchy along with my eyes, [...]

Pride and Parties

I got up at 9am, threw my clothes in the dryer and went back to bed. Around 9:30, I got back up, took a shower and headed out to pick some undergrads up to take them to Pride. It turned out my car wasn’t needed after all (3 people didn’t show up). [...]

New Stuff

When I came home from my long day (see previous entry), I found I had a huge stack of mail. This is unusual because normally I don’t have any mail at all, except the occassional credit card bill or junk mail. At the bottom was a package from SwimOutlet. I guess it [...]
