It's Wednesday or something.

I will be very glad when this grant is done and I can get back to the fun stuff. XD So glad Barcon is at the end of the month and breaks up some of this monotony. Yes everybody, research can sometimes be boring. In fact, half the reason I became an engineer was to avoid research and spend my time you know, making stuff.

There's a deity laughing somewhere. Thankfullly this isn't straight hardkore sit in a lab type of research, so I'm ok. Whine, whine more.

So, I'm starting a weekly photography thing with nebulousity, which will be fun. We pick a theme and go play with our cameras, which is always good! Considering that I'm out of practice as my other camera broke sometime during my sophomore year, and this camera is EVEN FANCIER than that one. Still haven't pulled out my telescopic lens. So expect random pictures appearing, likely most in my DW, because I like that. XD I haven't done this week's assignment yet. I need to get on that.

I've been kind of brained out lately, which makes me sad as there are things I want to write/make/do! Clearly I need a kick in the pants. Part of what I've decided to do is actually get up out of my chair more during the day, as sitting for 10+ hours can't be good for my joints/muscles. So I've set alarms for myself to do that. We'll see how that goes.

And the links, because that's really why we're all reading here:

- Public Domain Music: archive.org with a friendlier interface.
- History of Crayons: a colorful graphic
- You're sleeping too much. Scale it back.
- Disturbing pamphlets from Ladies Home Journal. Love the clothes of that era, but I probably would have stabbed a bitch had I lived in it. Kind of glad my grandparents weren't around to learn I was a lesbian. XD
- Naked Scientists Podcast with my favorite section Naked Astronomy. It's a fun listen and they have British accents!
