I decided to take main street instead of the highway as there is so much new slick snow ? sleet. It is so slow as I have hit every red light on the way to teach some PHP to digital poetics students. I hope they like it.

I met with the chair of my dept today and they are still crossing their fingers on the full-time position. It really is their last year to decide. I feel bad because the department so obviously wants a new faculty member in the program but the school keeps dodging out on the money and I can't live without health insurance forever. It is kind of getting ridiculous now as there are over 150 majors and only 2 full-time faculty members.

If it doesn't work out I will just take one of the other million and a half job offers, but I have my heart set on teaching right now.

I decided to program estrip to work on gameboy advance, or I was bored with a scanner and photoshop.



I also found some examples I used to teach my first class a couple years ago. I wonder what I should do with all this stuff. For now I will just add it to my coffee table book.

I refuse to do anymore work until I can get a new laptop. I am officially on strike.

I used to love it but I am at the point where I want a new one. I guess if I can hold off till next year they will be so much better but not if I have to deal with shit like this. If I have to reinstall windows this weekend I am just going to boot it in linux and never look back. To bad most of the non-coding work I do is windows and mac specific. Luckily, Maya isn't either So I guess I need to just stop doing every non-3d, non-programming computer thing I do!

Next laptop, no windows.

Did anyone read about north korea's missle announcement, it sounds pretty ominous. I got this swf from the nbc site, note that CA is within the death ring, while elmwoodstrip seems safe. Enough for me not to move to CA. (e:twisted) I think you will have to move here for safety reasons.

So I guess local networking really works. Congratulations (e:maidencateyes) . Sorry the images are so bad. After gathering people that were scammed by Peter Singer together through the site, and working with Channel 4 Call For Action where my mother is director, (e:maidencateyes) was able to expose Peter Singers apartment scandal on the television.
