sense :: hearing // whining users
Yesterday I recounted how incredibly pleased I was with my recent purchase of a Gilette Fusion Power, and Pastilla pointed out that certain others were having shaving pains of their own. Well, I can’t let that fly since I may as well be some sort of shaving expert by this [...]
sense :: hearing // Hawke – Love Won Another
So I’m trying to really get into the wild wild world of RSS in order to let the net come to me instead of forcing me to go to the net. And while I read some feeds in Google Desktop, I wanted to take the full on [...]
sense :: hearing // Bambi Strikes Back – And Again
I completely forgot to mention that I wound up giving the Gillette Fusion Power a shot, thus letting myself give in to the massive Shackhype over it. Surprisingly, for such an expensive razor with even more expensive blades, the thing is amazing. Don’t get me wrong, [...]
sense :: sight // 8pm sunsets
If you’re looking for an accurate portrayal of life in DC, especially the same springtime sentiment that every DC (and neighboring community) resident goes through, I think this commentary by Melissa Jordan that I heard on our NPR affiliate this morning. Absolutely glorious, and incredibly accurate; especially the part about [...]
sense :: hearing // FLOSS Weekly Podcast
So it’s Monday, and there was network maintenance over the weekend, which essentially means that the net admins, who only come out of their hovels to do middle-of-the-night network work on the infrastructure, (for which I’m actually glad-we have gigabit ethernet) left me a bunch of clean up werk [...]
sense :: taste // fresh coffee
As much as I love Livejournal, I have to admit, the new sponsored+ account type is kind of a BS way to get around ads. I jumped on the paid user bandwagon a while back, so it’s no problem for me, but as someone who pretty much just signed up [...]
sense :: sight // grades online
So I’m all finished classes, grades are in and I’ve passed with flying colors, nothing to do now but wait for my third diploma to come in the mail.
Some of my seminar cohort were asking who would and who wouldn’t be walking across the stage, and it made me [...]
sense :: hearing // Hacienda – Electric Diva
Well imagine this; this was my first portable too! That’s amazing, one of the editors at Kotaku and I had the same toy-it’s kind of funny to be smacked in the face with an element from your past right there in print. I remember when I got in [...]
sense :: smell // bitter coffee
When I found out that there was an alternate telling of Neon Genesis Evangelion called Angelic Days, which essentially takes all the characters up and out of their universe and into an alternate one where the Second Impact never happened and it’s essentially more of a love-triangle-y schoolyard drama than [...]
sense :: touch // wind on my face
It’s overcast today, just a little. Dark enough that I don’t need my sunglasses, but bright enough that the streetlights are out. My favorite weather.
This morning, as we drove out of the parking lot and off to the road for that whole werk thing, I was astounded [...]
sense :: taste // cold coffee
Anyway.
You know, since LifeHacker posted a link to this freelancer’s guide today (and then literally after reading it I see this set of common mistakes by freelancers), if the guide is informative at all, I would make one hell of a freelancer. The trouble with it though, is finding [...]
sense :: hearing // Herb Alpert – Bittersweet Samba
There’s got to be a lesson in here somewhere.
I woke up with trees on the brain yesterday, and this morning wasn’t much different. I had been flashing back to long afternoon and evening walks I used to go on in wooded areas, paths through the small [...]
sense :: smell // laundry detergent
The weekend was all too short, I’m afraid. I have to admit that the weekend is always such a wonderful time of the week; Friday we did some grocery shopping and went to bed early, and Saturday my parents were in town early, so we hung out with them for [...]
sense :: smell // stale, burned coffee
Hmm. I have to admit, when I got the layout set straight for the new Millennium Winter and I had finally switched to wordpress, I kind of gave the categories a pretty sad brush-over. I don’t really like em, so if there’s anyone out there who sorts on category; [...]
sense :: sight // wet grounds and mist from passing cars
Ah, the weekend. Another several days to escape from werk, perhaps to indulge the more creative or the more interesting of my ideas and pastimes. I did manage to finish the last homewerk in my last masters seminar today, so that should be it for [...]
