The Latest
Well, a lot has happened that I've wanted to blog about, but I haven't had the time since I've been working in the lab full time for the last two months. It turns out that my two months can't be extended, though, so after this week I'll be back to just volunteering there once a week. I did get a part-time job with a tutoring agency, though, and I think I'll enjoy that. AND the pay is good. Now I just need another part-time job (but I have good relations with a temp agency until I find one).
Some things I wanted to blog about were:
- Got a new state quarter this week, Nevada. Also the new$10 bill. Good thing I saw it in the paper before I got it as change, otherwise I would have been totally weirded out.
- So I was on MUNI last week and this guy came on selling postcards of the Duboce Bike Mural to raise money for its maintenance. I LOVE that mural so I bought a set. The cards have facts about the mural and about biking in SF (or something). I am pleased with my purchase. I like that mural so much I had even thought about blogging about it before I got the cards.
- For some reason, PlanetOut is no longer web publishing Alison Bechdel's comic, so there's not much reason to go there. BUT Alison is currently posting them on her blog, http://alisonbechdel.blogspot.com . It's good stuff.
- Last week I also sucessfully used the "lookup" function in Excel for the first time, and also got to use SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) for the first time. That was cool. Hope to see more things like that.
I wanted to listen to something good, so I clicked over to http://www.capradio.org and they were playing Beethoven's Eroica symphony (I was hoping for something just slightly later--maybe 20-30 years, but this is pretty good) , but my streaming audio keeps conking out because I think something on my computer is sending out a lot of unnecessary packets, so I am running Ad-Aware. Grr. I have to say, though, that KXPR's web stream is soothingly high-quality, unlike e.g. KFOG's. I haven't tried BBC yet because I don't have realplayer at work.
