Pete's Log: stupid debian

Entry #741, (Life in General)
(posted when I was 22 years old.)

I wrote this entry last night but was unable to add it, due to debian fucking up mysql. But I've since fixed that and can now add it:

Wow. It's four am and MTV just started playing music. And the first song they play is "One Step Closer" by Linkin Park. I like this song. And I like the video. It's very cool and surreal. The floating dudes somehow make me think of Dragonball Z.

I finally finished grading the 232 final. It took a long time. 25 of the 100 points were one question in which the students were required to write code. Took freaking forever. I need to record the grades for that, plus regrade a few more 232 homework grades that are messed up. Then ship it all to Ramzi. But I think I'm gonna do that tomorrow. The prospect of sleep is very inviting... today has been long. It seems like days ago that perk and I shot some whiskey in 208. But that was this morning.

mysql on malloc broke. So the log is offline until debian fixes that. mysqld segfaults on startup while it is still loading dynamic libraries. Not a good sign.

I've started up a Clair Danes obsession. She's a hottie. I had a Clair Danes obsession briefly some long while ago. Celebrity infatuation of this sorts is fun, and it helps mask any true feelings I may have. But this Clair Danes obsession thing is fun, since I get to set my background image to a picture of her, and I get to repeatedly listen to the song "My So Called Life" by the Ataris, which is a song about being obsessed with Clair Danes and is generally amusing.
