lol… no, nothing like that has ever happend to me…

So this was in my archives as a draft, but never published. Thought i’d throw it out there… it’s kinda funny.

Your Icecream Flavour is…Neopolitan!

You aren’t satisfied with just one flavor. They say variety is the spice of life and this shines through in your Ice cream of choice! Just don’t eat all the chocolate and leave the strawberry and vanilla behind!

What is your Icecream Flavour?

New webcomic, from the same writer who brought you Queen of Wands… Different artist, though, whic kills me. Aerie should have kept up the drawing. Anyway, this is a spin-off about Angela, who in some strange way I think I liked better than Kestral anyway.

I so need this hat. Seriously. With a hat like that, and a pinstripe suit… I would be a fox. (or a pimp, if I got some platform shoes and a cane and stuck a feather in the hat). Ha.

So I went to Chad’s Russian party last night (that is, a party for all the people who finished the second russian language module). It was actually a lot of fun. I got to meet his classmates, and his instructor, Igor. The party was held at the house of one of the student’s boyfriends… Joe Acaba. Joe now wants me to come back to another party at some point and get drunk. Which probably won’t happen, but is pretty funny.

One of Chad’s other classmate’s husband was also at the party… JAXA astronaut Akihiko Hoshide, who was just assigned to STS-124.

Have I mentioned how awesome it is to live in Houston?

So school and work (but mostly school) have kind of been ruling my life lately. Which is to say, I have had no life, as I’m still dog tired from whatever it is I’m getting over.

But. Today I finished my Stats midterm. Yay! Now all I have to do this weekend (school wise) is write a presentation, write some part of my first year project paper, write a paper proposal for linguistics, and write a results section for stats. And something else, I’m sure, but I can’t remember it.

Also, in the realm of annoying, it looks like I may end up spending my birthday giving make-up exams. How lovely.

And… you may have notice the I implemented the labels feature… it’s really more for my benefit than yours, so I can find stuff kinda quickly. I’m trying to figure out if I can make the labels less prominant, but don’t hold your breath as I don’t have much time to devote to it. And it may take me a while (read: possibly years) to get all of my archives tagged… there are like, 1060 some-odd entries. Seriously.

John Backus died Saturday… which is sad. He invented Fortran, but I’m more familiar with him due to his work on the Backus-Naur form, which is a formal language to describe programming languages (similar to Chomsky’s grammer for natural languages).
