  1. Is it just me, or does the whole idea of an "upgrade only" version of software seem comical? I'm looking at you Windows 7.
  2. I just earned about 20,000 geek points replacing the fan in my laptop. http://bit.ly/3BSr5c
  3. Upgrading my laptop seems like the perfect post travel recovery task. Still crying on the inside after Delta's theft of 24 hours of my life.
  4. Delta thinks that 200 dollars in funny money is proper recompense for taking away 24 hours of my life.
  5. Using inflight internet for the first time. Sort of bittersweet after my worst flying experience ever.
  6. Flight out of CDG canceled. First a malfunctioning sensor, then the engine starter would not work. Staying at EuroDisney. I'm not kidding.
  7. Woo Venice.
  8. At AUS. Surprised to find free wifi (some kind of Google sponsored holiday special).
  9. Giving a talk this morning. Wish me luck!
  10. I totally forgot it was my birthday. This is no way to live.
  11. In Virginia for the AAAI Fall Symposium. Staying at my parent's empty house. Spooky.
  12. I voted today. Bunch of propositions on the ballot, but no actual elected offices. Hoping proposition 4 passes. #austin
  13. Scheduled two talks in two weeks. Ah! I'll miss the UT intramural swim meet. And a lecture by R. Crumb. Sacrifices for science.
  14. In Austin, coffee shop = bar. This has all sorts of potential complications.
  15. My wife is away on a business trip for five days. Day one: I get the apartment all to myself! Days two through five: Please come home.
  16. My wife thinks I should get an iPhone because I use Twitter. That sounds like a great reason *not* to get an iPhone. #internetaddiction
  17. 72 degrees and not a cloud in the sky. Called all the bike shops looking for available rentals. Every place is out. #austin
  18. The amount of "Exceeded budget..." email I get from mint.com is really depressing.
  19. Woo Austin!
  20. 10 years ago #balloonboy would have gotten 200 words in a local paper.
