blizzard: Went out to dinner at Peppers with Owen, Havoc and Amy. Then, I got a Chai from Caribou, to replace the one I had stupidly dropped the night before. It was good.
-
hacking: wanted to finish my patch to gnome-vfs last night, but got distracted by the truly awful Lakers game. It seems like the Lakers peaked at just the right time. I have to do it tonight now, before 1.0.3 comes out…
-
wedding: Anders just wished Zana and I a happy anniversary. He has a kick ass memory or something.

gnoetry: Jon Trowbridge’s gnoetry application rocks my world. Check this out:
The group’s accepted as a hornless steer. The women even comes into disuse. The betting man’s and classes not appear. Beyond the priestly servants who produce.
In economic level of the game. The attitude of their official style. In modern times have much above its aim. In any guise and aptitudes and file.
The situation at his best estate. The love of western man which coincide. Increased in order to depreciate. The predatory type of goods supplied.
In scope and certain fundamental traits. The servant argues wealth accumulates.

hacking (GNOME 1.4): Worked more on some packages for Red Hat 7.1. It’s going to take some more QA before we release.
-
go: Christian came over for dinner. We went to Carolina Brewery and had vaguely southern food. Went for coffee at Caribou (I got a light white berry as per normal). Afterwards, he taught Zana and I how to play go. It was much better than the movie.

pet peeve: There’s a commercial on TV advertising a CD-ROM that can “help you learn the computer!” It has a pretty vacuous blonde stating that “she has now learned the computer, thanks to [the product].” Try learning english first…
-
hacking: Spent half the week building GNOME 1.4 packages for RH. This took a long time.
-
books: Tales from Watership Down is turning out to be a major disappointment. I can barely get through it. )-:
-
hockey: Red Hat sponsored the hockey game last night and, Zana and I got free tickets to watch it. It was sort of fun to see a ‘Red Hat Replay’ everytime something cool happened. Much more disturbing were the ‘Glaxo Smith Kline Flonase Trips Down Memory Cane’. The name was so ridiculous, it overshadowed the fact that the Hurricanes are only 4 years old, and flashbacks are silly at this point.
Anyway, it had been a while since I’d been to a hockey game and it was a lot of fun. It was well played, and the Canes won in an exciting fashion. If they win again tomorrow (unlikely) there’ll be a game 6 in the series in town on Sunday. I might even pay to go see them then.
-
hockey (food): The food at the hockey arena was pretty poor. It was too good to be yummy (but bad for you) stadium food, but it wasn’t good enough to be real food. Oh, for a Dodger Dog…

scrabble: Owen came over last night, and we played scrabble and ate chinese food. It was a lot of fun, though owen got miserable hands. I got a bingo with ‘sunrays’ and got 79 points as a result.
-
parents: Went home to California after a few days. My dad helped mow the lawn making it look a lot more respectable.
-
rabbits: Finished reading watership down last night. Wonderful book. It made me feel like a rabbit for a while. Next up: Tales (Tails?) from Watership Down.
-
hacking: I have a lot of catching up to do.
-
taxes: suck
