Pug’s Place

Oh, what have I done today?

• Set up a quick bypass for ICARUS and IRC (damn you willis!)
• Read more Two Towers
• Cleaned out notebooks
• Ate a free chocolate fudge brownie ice cream cone at Ben and Jerry’s (but donated to the Gainesville Animal Shelter )
• Got my bike tuned up
• Picked up my Statistics homework assignments from my professor
• Updated my formula sheet for the exam on Friday
• So far resisted the temptation to watch Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers (Though I fear I might not hold out the night!)
• Remembered, so far, that tonight at 7 PM is UF’s first College Libertarians meeting which I am planning to attend
• Completed my switch from Ximian Evolution to Mozilla Thunderbird for email

I’m also giving thought again to HID Commander, but it’s seeming less and less useful to me. See, the point of the program is to provide a generic Linux user-space framework for reading button presses from any USB Human Interface device. I was going to use it to read button presses on my Microsoft GameVoice Puck so that I can use it to control XMMS. But I’ve found that for some really odd reason Resmiranda occasionally fails to boot while the puck is plugged into a USB port. Freaky, no?

So, if the puck hurts my baby, do I really want it plugged in all the time? A very good question…

Otherwise, I saw the above above quote in Jen’s away message. It amused me:

I love that my roommate and I keep quote lists from the year of funny things that we’ve said… I swear I don’t remember telling her that she looked “like a gopher on speed”…

Only three days left in Gainesville. The end is nigh!
