Hardware is the computer itself, its keyboard, casing, microchips, switches – rusting, dusty, fallible, and mortal. Software is the thousands of lines of written code that allow the computer to do incredible things at a high speed, and that never breaks down – invisible and immortal. Hardware and software; Mensch and Ubermensch.

Blah.

Found out last night my internship isn’t going to happen. Which is good (more time), and bad (less money, stay at home, don’t get to work with the NE team). I might have to find another job…. but I don’t know what I would find for short term on this short a notice… maybe Huntsville Hospital needs a short term computer person? Lookig into Space Camp, not sure that will work on such a short time line, though.

Anyway. Not so much new here. Passing everything, at the moment. Which is good. Failing is bad… graduation is good… moving is annoying… getting married is good… wedding planning is complicated… grad school is good…

Yeah. That’s about it.

mom bought me a tiara for the reception… check it out here.

Ok… life and mood right now in a nutshell:

1. Yay for the rediscovery of information on old hard drives
2. Not yay for people who change White Wolf schedules at the last possible minute, thereby throwing chaos into any plans people might have made on the weird assumption that these things were somewhat static.
3. Yay for sleep. I don’t often get much of it, but I’ve slept for basically three or four days now, and I think it might be kind of addictive. I dunno… maybe I should break the habit before it gets worse
4. Not yay for doctor’s appointments. Because they suck.
5. Yay for good grades, and a good class schedule (tenatively) for next semester.
6. Not yay for having to deal with stupid people. That has to be like, my biggest pet peeve ever… stupid people really really get to me. I don’t think I can stress this one enough…

Ok. All I can think of for the moment.

Thinking about going to sleep. Somewhat hyper, but not the fun kind of hyper that makes you jump around and do things… more the edgy kind of hyper you get from lack of sleep… or too much sleep, I guess. That’s prolly it. I’ve slept too much. I should boycott sleep tonight… heh heh heh.

And this, also thanks to David… my next PC?

great use for an iPod… thanks to David.

omg… there’s more… Why didn’t I think of this first?

this is more for William than anyone else… but some of you other geeks might find it funny

so. The police say water guns are illeagal on campus (as in, loaded or unloaded)… but the Dean says he’s never heard of that. The plot thickens….

oh yeah… my archives will be broke until further notice. I’ll fix them eventually.

School sucks. Wedding planning sucks. Being a girl sucks. But everything else is good :- )

Must go do homework. Blah.

fixed

Or… well… cheater fixed. I can post, with some weird moving of files and such. it works.

Real post forthcoming. But not tonight. Sorry.
