Awesome. TMOL answered my question.
Work is slow. Lunch is difficult without antacids as we've purchased fried chicken. Gartch.

Can't Cecil Do Anything Correctly? |8:58 PM|
Mission: FAILED

I didn't get to swing dance today, as the place (Called the "The Speak Easy") is apparently difficult to find as part of the joke. Well, I guess I got the humor a little too effectively, and I couldn't find the joint. Whoops!

Poker tonight, I guess it is.

Expensive Chopsticks |11:28 PM|
I wish to explain how I ended up paying $6 for chopsticks. Okay, anyone who has read this page knows my HATRED at my forced-to-eat noodle situation. But I discovered something interesting, and that is somehow, chopsticks make it all almost "fun". So, since I had to eat a dinner of noodles today, I knew I had to find some chopsticks. Sadly, this is a little trickier than I thought it would be. Though it's very likely that if I went into an Asian market, I could find all the chopsticks I could ever need. I do not know where any Asian markets are, at least, not on the way home when I was grocery shopping. That narrow band of time is before when my body shuts down for 2 hours due to malnutrition.

"Perhaps HEB has some. I will check!"
"Doopty do, into the soup aisle I go...OH JESUS FLASHBACKS...NOOO Look out for NOODLES IN THE TREES!!..."

Anyway, when I came to, I found they did not have them for sale. They lacked the chopstick love. I headed over to the huge, new display that says "Sushi!" on the far wall. I said hello to the lobster tank, "Hello Mistur Lobsturs!" and browsed the sushi department. I found the chopsticks! They were FREE! But...it was obvious the purchase of sushi was expected. So, now, instead of a .50 bag of noodles, I'm eating a $6 sushi dinner. Or, to be more accurate, I'm staring intently at a sushi dinner, as I'm doing my best to work up the nerve to eat raw fish.
[Edit] Heh, Lampshade has posted a guide to eating sushi. With any luck, I won't die.

And then I slammed on the brakes. |1:47 AM|
Restless.

I don't know if it's the caffiene or what. I'm unable to sleep, I have work in the morning. I did a lot this weekend, and I now have a briefcase full of half of what you need to operate a wireless camera and recording system out in the field, based only in a car.
Hopefully, with this whole swingdancing deal, I'll have more energy but sleep more soundly at night. With the possibility of a sword fighting teacher (One called "Spook") I'm excited at the prospects this week holds.
The magnetic poles may be shifting. That should be exciting.
This site is being found increasingly often by people seeking the side effects of various drugs. Drag. I talk about drugs too much, obviously. I got another couple hits from Nasa. Did you know there's something called interstellar packet loss? I had no idea. Or at least, someone's search makes it look like there is.
