  • Note to self: if thinking ‘maybe the ryan won’t be too bad,’ stop immediately. Sigh. #
  • @suchagirl If you haven’t read his book Liars Poker, pick it up. A good read, & it really helps give backstory for the meltdown concepts. #
  • Hah. Just learned am apparently the #1 listener to Cracker on last.fm. Funny thing is, never really listened to Camper Van at all! #
  • Just programmed the TiVo for Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Am really looking forward to watching grainy 1964 claymation… in HD. #
  • Feel somewhat let down by the sparsity of the snow today. Rain is boring. I wanted fluffy fat piles of snow covering everything! #

  • @mizmoose Well, as I was late to hear about the phenom in the first place, it seems appropriate that I was late to hear of its pinnacle. #
  • Obama: Vote No on yappy dogs! http://tinyurl.com/5mgbzv #
  • Hahaha. Fastweb still had my profile from when I used to work there ~7 years ago. I have 15 potentially matching scholarships! Woot! #
  • Just bought carbon offsets for my 2008 mileage. I feel like I should be eating granola RIGHT NOW, while wearing disgusting patchouli. #

  • @writchrd I know! I saw a Citgo in Pullman where it was like 1.96 for regular. I am officially freaked out by this. #
  • fun with rsync, merging multiple music repos together to create one iTunes Music Library to rule them all. Stupid slow home wifi. #
  • Just realized that all my home wireless gadgets /except/ the base station support g. Hm. #
  • Michael Lewis on recent events: http://tinyurl.com/64mm8l #

just did a little math. after accounting for utilities and associated housing costs, ${current living arrangement} costs me around $340/mo, or slightly more than $4k/yr, more than ${previous living arrangement}. but it saves me between 20-80 minutes commuting daily (plus my 20 minutes of walking usually don’t make me want to commit homicide nearly so much as the blue line), and i actually like this apartment and landlord and the whole not having to move my car on street cleaning day (or, coming soon, dig it out of any snowbanks) thing.

so while i am not saying that i wouldn’t mind having an extra four grand laying around, i think it has all worked out pretty favorably. also, the view from my balcony is fantastic.

chez niqui, finances none
