A brief mathematical snapshot of my life at the moment:
Consecutive hours Nathan left GTA3 on pause yesterday: 5
Energy, in kWh, this required (est.): 3.5
Times I listened to every song ever written by Death Cab For Cutie as I taught my computer to play tic tac toe: 4
Hours of sleep gotten last night: 3
Times I expressed wishes to die: 4
Shots of espresso drunk in the last 36 hours: 7
Times my English TA said “fuck” today: 3
Elementary-school children I had to kill to get to my AI lecture: 4
Children Lam later saved from frisbee decapitation: 3
People who wished me an early happy birthday: 8
Parties thrown in my honor (not really): 1
Drinks I will consume before passing out: 9
Times I will likely try to make out with unwilling members of the opposite sex: 4
Number of these attempts I’ll remember tomorrow: 0
Live insects I just found on my clothing: 2
Today was engineering open house, and the hallways of all those buildings swarmed with eight year olds. I might not have killed all of them, but I was already late for the lecture so I didn’t stop to check.
I turn 21 tomorrow, so there’s a good chance I’ll be too fubar to write any new posts. I trust you’ll try your best to make do in the meantime.
