Yeah yeah I know that it has been a while

Y'all know me, I post "occasionally." Anyway, I did not feel like working at all tonight so I didn't (this means that I probably will not attend a party tomorrow night, but 'eh I really did not want to go anyway and now I have an excuse.) Kinda felt like crap most of the day but then I got home read some more of Lord of the Rings and watched Donny Darko. If you have not seen Darko, I highly recommend it. I have never read LOTR before but I sort of felt that I should as it is one of the modern classics and has had a pretty strong influence on literature. It is ok. The writing is good, and the descriptions are excellent but his characterization is really really weak. It basically reads like Beowulf (not really shocking considering Tolkein's profession). Also finally went on my first run in AGES. It is really hard to get up and go on that first run but after that it is a lot easer to keep going because of how good you feel afterwards. Werth and I go to LA tomorrow morning to get our Swiss visa applications in, the consulate closes at noon so we have to leave early. I don't really have anything else to say, but just for y'all's information here is a VERY unofficial LHC countdown clock (just in case you want to know in advance when we are going to make a black hole that destroys the world)

Peace
