Pete's Log: oh where, oh where has my little sleep gone?
Entry #529, (Life in General)(posted when I was 22 years old.)
Perk has asked the following question:
now that pete is no longer a poor undergrad, and now an afluent grad
student, has our pete exchange stock gone up at all?
can i cash in now?
Which is an interesting question. The main issue is I have no idea how much the stock was worth when I was an undergrad.
Today has been bad. I'm really tired, I'm frustrated, and I forgot to bring music with me. Kogge's class went alright, turned in my midterm and homework 2. I think I can place the maximum possible guess at how much sleep I got last night at four hours. Grrr. Next I wander about for a bit. Squyres is in town, so chat with him briefly. Then go get lunch with Brian, but my stomach, despite huge hunger, refuses to accept more than half a sub. So then we throw a disk around for a while, which was fun enough. Then run in to Tom and then Perk. Talk with Perk a while, then help Tom with some sockets concepts. Now I'm wasting time in the SSR. There's no way anything good (productive) will come of today, I'm too tired to focus. And theoretically I've got CSE 232 office hours tonight. But their next program is due wednesday, so I think I'll postpone office hours until sunday night or sometime more practical for them and for me. We'll see. Other agenda items include making waffles. I don't think I have any choice in the matter, I will be making waffles tonight.
I seriously can't wait to go home. I need home right now. I've realized that for the first time in years I'll be able to afford more than two days of skiing in CB. So the plan is to try to kill myself over christmas break. If I don't do structural damage to myself over break, I will have failed. Ski hard, ski often. Hopefully it'll actually snow enough this year to let them get the extremes open before I return to Indiana. I think it's been at least three years since I've skied a real double-black run. Must ski. Ski hard, ski often. I think I'll also rent some shaped skis for the duration of my stay. Shaped skis are awesome. I want out of here!
I need to work more on overcoming prejudices. I have way too many of them. Screw the status quo.
Now I must go find something to do between now and waffle time. mmmmm..... waffles... Maybe I'll make egg rolls for dinner. That'd be fun. Go home, play loud music, and make egg rolls. That sounds therapeutic.
