Now that all the thesis stuff is over and done with, it turns out that having a certificate saying I’ve got a PhD

Best song all day

Spent the afternoon coming up with a heat sink to put on the controller for a new part. Wound up with a metal box that

Narnia trailer

Wallaby — Mon, 09 May 2005 16:09:06 +0000

Saw the Narnia trailer yesterday (download from AOL). It’s hard to tell in a few seconds, of course, but it did look pretty good. (At least they didn’t make Aslan female, or give one of the four siblings an inexplicably diverse skin color, for the sake of being “correct”.) I heard someone complaining that the [...]

The revival will not be televised

Wallaby — Sat, 25 Sep 2004 14:11:45 +0000

The church I go to up here is about to begin the famous “40 Days of Purpose”. Yay. I started out fairly neutral on the idea – it’s been going through other churches in town, and I’d heard favorable comments from various friends, but it’s “in”, and I like “in” things in church no more [...]

I feel old. At MCGrads last night, I realized that entering grad students were sophomores in high school when I finished

I’m gonna get you little fishies!

Just a day. The experiment this morning (that I spent all of yester– okay, the half of yesterday that I actually

Group meeting went well, got some good suggestions for pulling different stress features out of the data, got to do lots

Deeply moved

Wallaby — Wed, 01 Sep 2004 18:30:28 +0000

Moved to the new apartment this weekend. It’s as much fun as always – slightly better than slogging through hip-deep boiling molasses, but not quite as nice as being massaged by porcupines. (Their paws are surprisingly soft.) Thankfully, I had some truly excellent help (second year in a row), so it was a lot shorter [...]

Yaaaaay!

It’s my sister’s birthday today… she’s turning old. Not as old as I am, though — all these
