As Far As I Can Tell


Getting sick

I’m getting sick. For the last few days I’ve been borderline, throwing up, sick to my stomach, headache. It would all go away after a few hours though. Now I’m coughing and gross feeling. I think the sick is settling in.

Yesterday Dan was in town to pick Miguel up from the airport, and we all got a chance to hang out for a while. Dan and I got food at the Chicago Diner and hung out at Atomix. It’s nice to have people visit since I still don’t hang out with too many people who live here.

I fixed the choke cable on my moped yesterday too, and it makes a huge difference when starting. The cable has been screwed up for years now, but I never put much stock into fixing it, writing it off as basically unnecessary. I was totally wrong, which I wish I would have realized back then, since I used to have to run my moped down the block to get it to start when it was cold. Silly me.

I’m listening to the new Julie Doiron record. I think its perfect morning music.

After so many years of being cynical, I'm surprised by how moved I was while watching Obama's speech. This is it, our chance for change.

Haircuts are one of the few times when I'm forced to just sit still and relax.

Evernote is the perfect "clip queue." Really amazing.

I love my headphones. The sound is so spatially separated that just now I swore I heard a noise downstairs while listening to Diplo.

Working on a conference abstract, so far it's a little obtuse.

Reminded again of the importance of backups. Sorry Isaiah.
