Hi, I'm a nerd. :) I write, and sometimes I publish those writings on my blog, Pursuing Calefaction. More often I'll write trivia here. It's a way to fight my ferocious ADHD. Hey, it works. (Sort of.)

My /Chores. (No, you don't get to see them. They're boring.)

My /Writing prompts. Feel free to add!

I last bit my fingernails on Nov 12th, 2008. (That's right, I haven't bitten my nails in 2 years.)

  • Recover data from a stack of old hard drives

  • Consolidate my data so that most of it is accessible to me via HCoop

    • Then set up afsclient on my machines
    • maybe write an easy script to install on new computers
  • Take the rest of my hardware to the electronics recycling depot

  • Reseal my hiking boots (Shoe Goo: $7)
  • Start looking for teaching jobs
    • Build up my resume -- doing what?
  • Prep next War of the Ring board for play.

Projects on the back burner

Crazy ideas I come up with

  • A frisk (or whatever) board display server with a handheld API that hooks up to a projector suspended over a table surface!
  • An Appalachian Trail wiki (really? Nobody's thought to do this yet?) Well, there's http://www.walkipedia.org/. But the guy's just sitting on it for now, apparently.
