The Weather
Date: 2008-05-14
It is a beautiful, warm and clear day in the Bay Area today. Hopefully the next few nights will be warm too, even though I generally enjoy the cool San Francisco nights. It’ll be good to have a change.
A Great Night
Date: 2008-05-13
It is really just a night not unlike many others. But still, what a great night I have had tonight.
Of course it doesn’t hurt that I just had my World History final tonight, which I am confident that I aced.
Website Visits

I thought my increased postings about boring, everyday topics would drive my website visits down. I was wrong:
Summer

Repeat after me: Summer is almost here. Summer is almost here. Summer is almost here. Summer is almost here. Summer is almost here. Summer is almost here…
Chomsky on Information Overload
Date: 2008-05-11
Ironic. (Or maybe not. I never really understood this word well enough to be confident that I am using it properly.)
In my RSS reader, where there are currently 2774 unread articles and 361 marked for later reading, I came across an interview with Noam Chomsky on information overload. And then I opened my 7th tab in Firefox to write about it.
Of course, Chomsky may not be the best person to ask about this subject. He says, “I wish I could answer sensibly. I just can’t. You should see the room in which I’m working. Piles of books, clippings, manuscripts, notes … All sorts of lost treasures buried in them.”
Now I’ll actually read the article.
Update: It turns out that quote was Chomsky’s entire contribution to that article. Haha.
Georgia
Date: 2008-05-10
I am in Georgia right now for my cousin’s wedding. It is a much-needed break, even though it is only for a weekend.
The first thing I did when I got here was go with my cousin (not the one that is getting married) and my bro to Waffle House. Awesome.
San Francisco and California are great and all, but they are missing a certain something. That something, while I can’t sum it up in a tidy description, are best conveyed through Waffle House. No waffle houses in San Francisco. There are a lot of things right with San Francisco. What is wrong is they don’t have the Waffle House. *tear*
Neglect

My muffin is feeling neglected.

The subject says it all.
iPod Battery Replacement
Date: 2008-05-04
It looks like I’ll also be replacing my iPod battery as well. It seems that my iPod can only play music for maybe 3-5 hours on a single charge now. Still better than buying a new one.
Oatmeal

God damn, I love oatmeal.
