My weekend in summary

Um, what did I do this weekend.

Well, I applied to uchicago (most of the way, still have some letters of recomendation paperwork and grade/gre proving to do). I checked out the requirements for various grad school programs. Oh yes, heat! We have heat! And a working thermostat! =) I had tried to light the pilot light myself, but didn’t know the magic button to press, so it was all for naught. I revised my resume yet again, after I realized it made me sound like a windows programmer (intentional for the attempt to get work with ulrich medical concepts, but so not what I’m looking for in general.)

Met , went out to herbivore, saw his phat pad, watched a really dumb, but amusing, marky mark action/comedy, and generally had a good time, while totally forgetting about ‘s bday party (whoops, sorry Nathan, happy birthday to you). I think I also missed a radical faerie potluck, alas, only so many hours. Also bought bone graphic novels 2 and 3, as well as barry ween boy genius 3 and 4. Ah, commercial therapy. Reading them actually did rather buoy my spirits, but sadly, I’ve finished them and want more now. Cursed hollow consumerism 😉

But probably the biggest thing I’m proud of doing this weekend is teaching myself some significant quantities of css, javascript, and php. (I’m also finding myself confusing bits of javascript and php syntax. Never learn two languages at once, it will fuck you up). All to produce a contact info database. [Let’s just pretend I typed the url right the first time] Please, browse it, enter your info (I do have it connected to a database here. I admit to not having gone to great pains to make it secure, but it’s behind a firewalled nat, with no direct access to the database), play with it, let me know what you think.
