Been working for Cisco quite a bit the past few weeks. Also gotta take care of a few things before I can rest. What you ask? End of the quarter academics, moving into a summer sublet, selling a car, and obsessing over 1) when I can run again and 2) when I can take my car to a track. Other things on the mind are finances (always) and this summer's trips, hopefully to both Indonesia and China. I also should go learn basic group theory in a day. Got a final in it after all (ick).

Also, I'm an insomniac again. Very odd. I go through cycles of sleeping 12-8 for a while and then one day, kerploom, I won't be able to sleep until 3AM and that'll set the tone of my nocturnal frustrations for a chunk of time. I'd like to think that it's proportional to how much I am thinking but it's never quite that linear. tired at 2:15 today. An improvement over yesterday's 3:45. Alright, here's another picture to make it look like this post is somehow substantial:

Took that picture a long time ago (September of 2003) while on a roadtrip out West to Santa Barbara with Paul and Ben. A whimsical picture at the time but it's become semi dramatic when cropped. Paul overlooking part of the Grand Staircase Escalante.
