I was away in class all day. Spreadsheet Aided Engineering. Seriously. I know that's what I do every day. But, I figure I can always learn a few new tricks. That's what I've been doing pretty much, learning things that make Excel slightly faster, slightly more efficient. I'm still a Matlab convert. I'm not really going to do serious engineering in Excel, it doesn't make sense.

I'll be in class for two more days. The class is actually being taught at a fairly reasonable clip for a computer class (which I usually find horribly slow), but I still stay relatively ahead of the class. So, I have plenty of time for web surfing and e-mail checking.

My entry yesterday ellicited a nostalgic response from David regarding singing and dancing before a movie: It was "Congo"! ...the singing and dancing while waiting for the movie: I sang "They're coming to take me away, haha!" So, that's memory for you. A tricky thing. I remember it being an entertaining night, but it took David to fill in the details.

Hopefully I won't end up with another dog tonight. One of my neighbors just stopped by with a dog he found wandering around on South Shore Blvd (a major street through our neighborhood) without tags. Anyway, this is the one neighbor who actually likes me (he and his lovely wife even brought me cookies when I moved in), so I felt particularly inclined to be friendly. Anyway, he's got an infant and a cat that's not a big fan of dogs, soooo I mentioned that if he still had the dog tonight and didn't know what to do with her that I would be more than happy to take her in while he posted "lost dog" signs. I'm such a sucker.

I wonder if I use parenthesis () too often. I read somewhere that it puts annoying breaks in your train of thought and interupts the flow of what you're reading. But my train of thought is so scrambled, its hard to have flow.
