People ask. Here goes: A (smallish?) motorcycle tank bag (magnetic, probably?) PockeTerm kit Weller WLC100 Soldering Station 64GB+ SATA-III SSD Nikon D90 House with a garage Sailboat Vinyl! Used in good shape, or new. Some suggestions: Any Led Zeppelin other than Coda or or the first self-titled album.

Today was the day of my second physics test. I was rather apprehensive about the whole thing considering how I was crushed by the first test. Things started to go wrong on Monday, when I accidentally dropped my backpack in such a way that it smashed the screen on my HP-48G. I didn’t love the HP-48G, but I liked it well enough.

It doesn’t seem like often, especially lately. I have 4.5 hours between classes every day. Initially, I thought this was going to be a terrible schedule. In actuality, things have conspired to make it an excellent schedule. Because I ride Yoshiko (the little Honda) to school everyday, I’m somewhat disinclined to ride home between classes. Each ride involves a fairly lengthy procedure of getting geared up then getting undressed at the other end. It just seemed safer, and cheaper, and more green, and mostly just easier to stay at school between classes. So I spend the entire time in the…
