Ahhhhh the life of a TA. I'm sitting in lab, bored out of my mind because it's only a "workshop" week where people only show up if they need help on next week's lab. Or in otherwords, a week off. But not for the fearless TA, where I'm sitting here writing this since no one's here. But someone might possibly could come, so here I wait, at least for a while. So I brought my laptop and I've been playing on that, but it's just not the same as hanging out at the apartment.

I also finally got most of my computer problems fixed. I figured how how to get my router to read the DNS servers correctly, figured out how to get internet working in Windows at my apartment, and got a replacement DVD burner from Dell. Now I need to burn some backups, and then I'm going to throw Fedora (currently downloading the DVD now) on the laptop to replace Mandrake since the support is about to expire. And since it's homecoming this week, we have a three day weekend.

Bono's hosting Conan's show tomorrow night. One of my favourite singers with my favorite late night talk show. Thank goodness for Tivo.

Every once in a while, someone has an absolutely genius idea. A multi-cord power cable, how was this not invented ealier?

My girlfriend has gotten me hooked on the Amazing Race (caution, lots and lots of pop-ups) and now I can't stop watching. And apparently it's not even as good as the previous seasons, so I may have to download some old episodes to see what the real fuss is.
