While I'm wasting time...
I figured I'd spend my remaining store credit at Homewood Toy & Hobby Shop. I got two boxes of LEGOs, assorted shapes and colors. I figure I can make mosaics and stuff, or sculptures. I want to have a whole room made out of them one of these days. Large numbers of small things fascinate me, which is one reason why I'm such a sucker for Asian girls.
More Words
As far as collections go, words are cheap. I'm tired of just being a math/science/engineering egghead, so now I'm gonna make that egg be more well-rounded. As such, here's some more new words I'm adding to my collection. Most of them come from David Brin's The Transparent Society. Brin is a Techer like who seems to have a penchant for new words. As before, I know some of these have obvious meanings; I'm looking for senses that are less common. Others get used all the time, but one gets the sense that the speaker doesn't really know what they mean.
I'm really proud of myself for writing the excel function that generated all those links. Now I just need to put it in a table. Rock on. I havn't felt this useful in weeks.
I know what you're thinking. I'll go back to monster now. :-(

Who says laziness isn't an art form?
You know you're pretty useless when you're too lazy to register for Unemployment Compensation. I like to think I'm gonna be working this time next week, but it doesn't look that way.
It looks like it's Tuesday now, which is a day earlier than I expected it. When I get around to it I'll dump the contents of what was gonna be my website on here and check that off my life's to-do list.
The list is kinda getting tough to manage, as it has as many branches as items. Maybe I'll do something like buddy zoo and have it in a web or something...that would be spiffy. (I'm ready to stop being a theoretical dork and get some application in).
Anyway, I saw a good article this morning, although of course they left out the pictures. Somebody in my home state has made a wood-burning pickup truck. Now I have to think of another word for "spiffy," since I've already used it in this post. Neato.
I might make pancakes for lunch. That would rule.
Still no comments...my readership must be shy. Don't worry, I don't bite.
