Japan Phone Rental
I give up. I’ve spent hours and hours looking into phone rental in Japan – whether I could get unlimited data, whether I could use my own phone (T-Mobile G1), whether I would be able to text internationally, who has the cheapest data rates if I can’t get unlimited data…on and on. I finally narrowed … Continue reading
Big Bang Theory Article
The New York Times has a cute little article about The Big Bang Theory, the show about geeks. There are some people quoted in the article who don’t like the show because it’s heavily stereotyped, and we should move beyond that. My response is: of course it’s heavily stereotyped. It’s a 30-minute prime-time sitcom. It … Continue reading
MJ Lifetime Collection
In case you forgot from last June, I’m a fan of Michael Jackson, and have been for many years now. Moving right along. I found out about the MJ Lifetime Collection show on the bulletin board I participate in. Everybody was so excited and wished they would come to their town. But it’s only in … Continue reading
Choice Between Classes
They opened up a new section of GSR 300, so I got into that – it’s with a professor I am not extremely fond of, but 300 is supposed to be a heavily self-directed class, so it might work out. Now I have to choose which class to drop. I signed up for SWK 318, … Continue reading

Small World
Okay, I have already posted this on Twitter and Facebook and in email, but I have to say it more. nytekat knows ravynfyre. I refuse to believe the world is really that small. I mean, I know Iowa is pretty small, but how is it that somebody I met on LambdaMOO 12 years ago is … Continue reading
Hairstyles
Still digging through photobucket! This is why I don’t have short hair: This is why I don’t have a perm:
Old Designs
While digging through my old Photobucket account, I came across some old designs. From the screenshots, it looks like I used them circa 2006 on JournalSpace. Sure wish I could get them back, they’re kind of cute. And then I have some bits that are not put together, like this one, this one, this one, … Continue reading
HIowa!
So at last it can be told! I spent the weekend in Iowa! I couldn’t say anything before, because it was a surprise for gretchen_marie, concocted by at_the_stars. I had posted on gretchen_marie‘s Facebook invitation and said I couldn’t afford the flights, and at_the_stars contacted me privately and said “hey…can I help you come out … Continue reading
Classes for Fall 2010
These are the last classes I need to graduate. Unfortunately, I won’t be graduating in December 2010, because I really want to complete my Capstone. I was going to get permission to do an accelerated Capstone and finish it all by December, but that would have required a LOT of summer work, and now that … Continue reading
