I knew this was coming.

PLs hurts my brain, a lot. I mean, a lot a lot. Ow.

I don't want to need to be able to think in these terms. Ever. If it's actually useful for a graphics computer scientist, I quit.

The Pomona CS server is down. Now that PLs homework (two classes worth of it) is posted, the server is down. You know, the only homework that I can't do tomorrow? Yeah, no such luck.

I want to take a sledgehammer to it, or something equivalent. The best I had was knifing a stack of roundtable flyers. It'll have to do for now.

I just spent five hours on a Latin assignment.

The first one of the semester.

Grrrrrr.

Not apropos of anything, State Indoor full results came out. I was sixth, but a full 40 points behind fifth.

Been doing nothing of (public) note for the last week or so. Just bumming around. Starting Thursday or so though, I started getting sinus headaches. Nothing serious, but the usual "sudden movement ow" sort of headache. Today, it had migrated out of sinus-pressure land and solidly into my nose, with a little in my throat too. So I'm breathing through about a quarter of the usual space allocated for the task, and occasionally coughing. Meanwhile, I have to move back onto campus tomorrow, and start classes on Tuesday. If this doesn't go away FAST it's going to make my life hellish.

Ugh. Sleep.

Skiing is not a thing to do on three hours of sleep. So, here I am, home.

Well, tonight's about to suck. A lot.

Can't sleep. Need to be up early tomorrow to go skiing. Bad combination.

Need something to calm me down.
