This is freaking cool and I can't wait to get home and try it out.

In other news, I'm at work and I'm doing my extremely hard and irritating homework. In between being frustrated about the problems I'm browsing various blogs and playing Duke Nukem 3D that my boss showed me was already on my PC somehow. Yay!

Well, the MLK weekend went off without a hitch, meaning that nothing really happened apart from me studying a little bit and working out. On Friday went to go see Borat with everyone at the dollar theater -- it was actually much funnier than I expected it to be.

Yay for finding out about the ASL club! I emailed the president of it, and she said they haven't had their first meeting of the quarter yet which is stellar. It's January 30, so hopefully I don't forget.

With all the hype about the Burning Crusade I'm admittedly somewhat regretful that I gave up my 60s. Oh well. Working out is much better for me. However, certain things I will never forget and draw me back. Like finishing a 45 minute baron run with Crush, Triage, Rune, Andi, and Carvina (was it Carvina?). That was probably the most fun I have ever had in a video game because of the people that went. Also, it doesn't help reading stuff online about BC. But then I see a screenshot and it reminds me of grinding levels or gear. I think that I really did too much of that when I played and wish I would have taken my time so I could enjoy the game more, like I did when I was leveling Crush.

I think I might be coming down with something. I'm very sleepy and my head is kinda spinning right now. Or it could be that Duke Nukem I was playing. That game moves very fast and now I can see why my Dad used to feel that way when I played Turok or something... I'm getting too old.

Since I work in an animal research building I have lots of time to think about monkeys. I wonder if monkeys can think but just in a different way from us. I wonder if they are struggling to get thoughts across, just barely on the edge of having thoughts like a human but can't quite get there. It reminds me of that Calvin and Hobbes quote:

“Do you hate being a girl? What’s it like? Is it like being a bug?
I imagine bugs and girls have a dim perception that nature played a
cruel trick on them, but they lack the intelligence to comprehend the
magnitude of it.”
-Calvin
