The numbers

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.
