Mmmmmm I&#8217;m in love.<br \/>\nOnly thing that I&#8217;ll have to get used to is the resolution&#8230; 1280X800 is the maximum on this, and I&#8217;m used to having 1200 pixels of height. Meh. Whatever.<br \/>\nBut yeah, finally got stuff set up today and it seems to be working well. Gotta download other drivers and foo when I get back to CMU, but that&#8217;s really it.<\/p>\n<p>My camera memory card died again today. Same brand\/make\/model as the first one. Going to return it and try a non SanDisk UltraII SD 1GB card to see if it&#8217;s the camera that kills cards, of if it&#8217;s just the cards that are bad. Given that I used a SanDisk SD 256MB card in it with no problems, I&#8217;m guessing it&#8217;s a combination of the two.<\/p>\n<p>Congrats to Ben (who may or may not read this) for landing an interview for a great job.<\/p>\n<p>Went bowling with Kat, Jim, Tommy, Kendra, and $person today. I would have pictures, but my card died. Bleh.<br \/>\nI&#8217;m gonna miss Kat&#8230; :(<\/p>\n<p>Um&#8230; yeah. I would also post a picture of my laptop, but my memory card died.<br \/>\n*sigh*<\/p>\n<p>Oh yeah, yesterday was KoL run of amazing funnness. Went from mid-level 10 to level 11, beat the sorceress, leveled up to 12 to get the dual-wield skill, ascended, and went from level 1 to mid-level 5. Played over 350 adventures yesterday. Wheee.<br \/>\nThis run would be a record run except it&#8217;s a myst class&#8230; and I always have trouble with level 9+ areas as a myst class.<br \/>\nBleh.<br \/>\nThe fact that I eat all my reagents doesn&#8217;t help either.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, I had the weirdest dream the other night. Society thought masochism and torture were sexy and attractive&#8230; so I drilled holes in my toes and was chopping my fingers in half (long-ways). Then I woke up. It was the most disturbing dream I&#8217;ve ever had.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am writing this from the pretty bright widescreen goodness of my new laptop.
