Moo.

Cow is now ostensibly on its way for to become a new project. A little over $1.21/square foot, thanks to ebay. Armor would be a wonderful project for this weekend if I weren't going to Ice Dragon. However, (1) I promised people rides, (2) it gets me out of town, if only for a couple of hours, and (3) I might be able to find buy some useful items (uh-huh, yeah) Okay, I might be able to find some items that I can convince myself are not a bad idea.

Other mood booster: coerced Baska to come out for the weekend. W00t! Debauchery! (okay, not like I really expected it to be a challenge or anything)

Spring is coming, I can feel it. Unfortunately, it's getting me a whole lot of hopped up here and unable to do anything. I'm planning on killing some time at the gym today, hopefully that will help. Next week: beaties! I'm getting confident enough in my shoulder to do it, all I need is a belt sander to make my new "lighter" polearm a reality (the quotes are because after hefting the cut-down piece of it, I no longer have any illusions of this being anything but another club, albeit a little bit lighter than my bridge lever.)

I feel like one of the cool kids now

Something I noticed, not long after arriving at Cornell, was the ubiquitous accessory known as the Nalgene bottle. It seemed like every other student (if not more) had one in a pouch on their bag, or hanging off a strap, or some such. Wednesday night, I caved and went to buy one. Of course, since they were on sale, I caved and bought two, one widemouth for the office, and one narrow for my gym bag. I've already noticed I'm drinking a lot more water now that there's no nasty plastic taste as has been provided by my recycled Poland Spring bottles for some time. Now I just need to figure out how to decorate it.
