Blog rides again!

Who woulda thunk that a 3-post blog would still be here after 15 months of neglect? Pure insanity! All of a sudden I got hit by a wave of fresh ambition tonight, and it culminated in my ressurrecting this thing. Perhaps this go around I can be a little more successful in getting stuff out of my head and into the aether of cyberspace, for the sake of posterity or something. Doesn't that sound noble? I could probably even turn in into a new year's resolution for ought-six. That'd make people think I'm deep, right?

Fools.

In other news, I'm staying over at my parents house in Texas for the next week and then some. On second thought, that's probably a closely related story to my newfound resolve to blog again. But I digress. There is nothing quite like raiding your parents fridge to brighten your day. Parents' houses must have some weird chemical in the air that makes their grown children not only gravitate toward the fridge, but feel completely at ease opening it up and plundering its contents with reckless abandon. You know I'm right. Conversely, staying over at the 'rents place can be a pain because even though I have nothing to do here, I can't sleep until noon because that will totally give them the impression that I do that all the time and that I'm living a life of slothful inertia back in Minnesota. Reflecting on whether I actually am or not makes me want to actually keep track of when I'm waking up and get a graph going. Has that been done by anyone sane before? Really, it wouldn't take that much time, the problem is that nobody else would really find reward in knowing when I woke up. I guess I don't care what time other people roll out of bed, why should they extend the favor?

On the other hand, people, we have science at stake here.

It's on now.
