this may work, this may not

elscorcho is up over 12,000 hits!! nobody has told me how they feel about the new photo section, or new ideas for the interface, or anything, really. ajay just keeps telling me to post, so i am. i'm kinda peeved at the lack of response though! and i can't name names cuz there are too many of you and i'll forget to call someone out and then they'll just sit there being smug and using elscorcho and not telling me about it. so fucking use the "respond" thingy or email me or something! thanks

i'm at work right now, and its almost lunch time. i'm taking a little break to post - i'm in the middle of my first monster.com project (hurrah!!) but there is a snafu with something and i have to wait until it gets cleared out. i've learned these last two days that i am not terrible at perl, even though that class kicked my ass. so thats good to know - i still have a working understanding of stupid stupid evil perl.

i won't bore you with the details, but monster is amazing. i really enjoy coming here and doing whatever, it doesn't feel like work - it's just fun to code in a room with other people who aren't there cuz of requirements for their majors or minors but are there because they really like programming. just being around people who don't hate computer science is really refreshing. not that i have a problem with any cs majors who dislike what they are doing (wink wink), but its just refreshing to know i'm not the only nerd coming outta school next year.

i dunno, not much else. well, i haven't posted in nearly a month, so iguess theres stuff. i went home with thad, and we saw lots of baseball games. i met stephan jenkins and arjune told him that he liked kurt cobain more (sj was ok with that). i did things around boston... jon and ryan came back, they moved in to 25 with me... nick was here so he didn't 'come back', but he also moved in... i dunno, its lunch time... this post sucked, but its something to tide you over.

later

sadly we all can't be monster geniuses. it'd be pretty boring if we all were. there'd just be a bunch of crazy computer programmers running around talking about nothing but video games and computer languages. and they'd all just sit in a big room at their own computers, not talking to each other, being all smart. what a world.

perhaps i'll become a bum and just sit around and sponge off of monster.com geniuses. or maybe i'll become an artist, then i would still have to sponge off a monster genius, but at least i'll have something to do in my spare time. i think i'll ponder that now .....

all this talk about work...I don't have a job. most people that read this site, don't know who i am, but for those that do... All I do is sit around and do nothing. CS does suck. I take a C programming class and I don't understand anything. Maybe I should try to study during my long periods of nothing. Also, if someone can give me a job, GIVE IT TO ME. I use Niv's website (monster), but its not helping me. Niv, turn that place around...

i hate the fact that you conversed with sj and got a picture with him. it's just not fair. well, at least i touched his hand at a concert...yeah so i'm a little obsessed but that's okay. and i don't know if i would compare kc to sj but whatever. as a wierd sidenote, there was a chipmunk in my basement yesterday and in case you were worried i saw no foaming at the mouth so i don't think it was rabid and we finally got it out by bedtime so i didn't have any crazy nightmares concerning alvin, simon, theodore, or the fact that they have a human dad.

just a quick shout out from beverly, ma! it's about 9:00 am, i've been here at work for an hour and a half now, so i figured i deserved a short break to check my email and whatnot, and to post too i guess. i'm working on a super spreadsheet now that probably should be real boring but it's not cause its about high-tech navy weapons. plus i keep taking little breaks and my computer chair is real comfy. well, back to the grind...

my dear nirav,
do you remember when we were at eddie rockets (or is it johnny? i think it's eddie in ireland.. weird ass) and we had a gloria gaynor singalong? i'm sure why i'm bringing this up. maybe because i'm having an "i will survive" moment studying for my macro final. and you are often the target of my miscellany.........
