Good things
Mar. 1st, 2007 12:19 amLife has been good lately.
- The weather has been perfect the last three or four days: sunny with highs of 70-75.
- I hung out with some really cool Firefly fans I met at Owlcon.
- You may remember the astonishingly elaborate system some MIT students built in their dorm, with a "Party Button" that turns on disco lights, closes the blinds, turns up the stereo, etc. I used the Party Button idea as an example to demonstrate the Observer design pattern yesterday. I think they enjoyed it.
- Next week is, as grad students call it, the Week of Mysterious Parking Availability (aka Spring Break).
- We're playing Finlandia in the Campanile Orchestra. Oh yes. Not only is it a beautiful piece, the timpani part is awesome. *bounces on heels*
EDIT: I forgot the thing that prompted me to make a list of good things in the first place: Girl Scout cookies! Available in front of Kroger's!
