Cleaning Up the Mess that's About to Arrive

I guess it's so that the new arrivals can settle in among the current rabble. My to-do list is starting to look like the seat plan to a Slipknot concert, and just as scary.

Excited and Not

I'm in a bit of a rush, so I'll make this quick. So many things to do today---not a lot done. But things worth doing will be done, oh yes.

Next week: how to try not to sound like a tabloid horoscope.

D'Bugger

Surprisingly, I went through a quick recall of the encryption technique I've been employing for years now. Unsurprisingly, bugs arose from the nooks and crannies of the re-adaptation of the solution that took a bit of a while to exterminate. Good thing I'm putting in a bit of troubleshooting code, so I could also figure how best to look for the bugs.

Now I'm tempted to put all sorts of encrypted stuff here...

Before the Outage / 120 / Pushing Out the Outbox

Well, my head's in a muddle, so this may or may not be a complete post, but it will surely be a montage of posts.

I'm glad that people can schedule outages. If only the weather can be managed, then we're halfway done, and well on our way to the end of evolution.

One-hundred and twenty posts! Almost once every three days for a year. Which would've been impressive if I hadn't been trying to post everytime I am at work and in front of a computer with an internet connection.

Today marks the end of the machine exercises for CS 11, and the last of the laboratory-intensive meetings. Everything to follow for the rest of the semester can be done solely by lectures (but, of course, would be best supplemented by hands-on work).

Out of Breath

Hmm... today's cold seems to be the clogging, cloying type. At least I was able to provide the solution to Problem Set 3 for CS 135. Also, the reservation of the Eng'g Theater has me moving the largest of my February 8 exams to the next week. Yay?

Start Up

Okay, getting waylaid last Friday allowed me to finalize a schedule... and bring home the point that February 8 is merely sixteen days away.

T-Minus Twenty Days Until...

... Hell erupts once more. Somehow, I have scheduled all of my classes to have examinations on February 8. This bodes ill, indeed.

Wowza

Could it be I'm getting the hang of this teaching thing? Well, still can't cover everything I want to yet, but I'm starting to get a nestegg of confidence. Whether or not this is overconfidence is a matter that takes time to hatch.

Ho-hum

Lethargy's a bitz.

(illegible scribble)

Ugh. This week can only get better.
