Sing and Dance

I feel ashamed of myself for abandoning my faithful readers for more than a week after being so proud of myself for my frequent updates, so I thought I'd give the ol' keyboard a whirl tonight.

• I found a very interesting read concerning the effects of cell phone use on our senses. Specifically, the article talks about the phenomenon of "phantom rings", which I myself have fallen victim to.
  
• I've been having a lot of fun working on the website I mentioned in my last entry, even though it's been consuming a lot of my free time. I'm starting to remember why I love to write code.
  
• I've also had a lot of fun playing in Cisco routers the last few weeks. No, not playing in any big iron, just PIXes and WiFis, but it's very thrilling to jump into a telnet client and hammer away at old school command line stuff instead of clicking on fluffy web interfaces.
• Been in a huge Dave Matthews mood lately. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
• Occupational Hazard: Being kind to mentally challenged people can have unintended consequences, such as their newfound desire to become your roommate. ( It was Eddie for those who've heard me talk of him before. ) Yeash.
• When the OTHER mentally challenged customer, who you've suspected of frying equipment due to his high volume of warranty returns, finally brings his computer in, and only *TWO* screws are holding the motherboard down... Well, I no longer have to suspect anything.
• The new Doctor, David Tennant, kicks ass.
• Every time I make an effort to watch my Washington Wizards, they lose. Every playoff game I've missed, they won. Fate couldn't be more obvious if it came up and slapped the lunch tray out of my hand personally.
