| What’s up, M.I.N.D.
Was reminded of our 60 minutes thing when someone linked me an article about some study pinpointing an “autism gene.” Hit up the website to check and apparently it aired yesterday. A little weird seeing these people I’ve worked with being interviewed, our research space all dramatized, and the projects chopped up into 13 minutes.
Happy year of the pig, fatties.

| Hellooo
I need to do something with this page. Revamp. Recode. Full CSS layout. Which requires learning . . . Which requires time . . . Which requires not feeling like I want to stab my eyes out an hour after getting home from work. Work is good though. Our living room is naked and I should start learning how to cook things. Going home for Chinese New Years this weekend! Ahhh food.
This job is going to make a wrist brace my own personal fashion statement.
Went to Sprinkles for the first time this morning. Previous drive-bys = “Oh hell no.” They’re good cupcakes and look incredibly cute, but an hour long wait during lunch hour on Valentines day? Are you serious? For cupcakes?! I’d heard about the store from Tiff awhile ago, yet only came across the press stuff yesterday and it’s pretty mind blowing. Who’da thunk baked goods could turn into such a freakish craze?
Excited that our DF charm bracelet thing is finally coming together :)

| Update!
Moving to Southern California in January (living with Tiff!) :) Was planning to stay in Davis for a few more nights next week as I still have two days of work, but decided I’m just going to plant my arse at home, drive up for work and use those days to move more stuff back to San Jose.
Norcal: Goodbye forever.
Socal: Where’s the pie? [Add]
AHEM! *cough* Does anyone (female) need a place to stay in Davis between January and August? My dilemma, moving to Socal mid-lease, is that I'll be paying for rent in two locations over the next 8 months. My parents, being the supportive mother and father that they are, agreed to cover my room in Davis so I'm not living off of animal crackers and imitation Cheerios this coming year, but good grief it is a huge waste of money.
The natural action to take then is to sublet the room. Thing is, I can't just post it up or craigslist it for strangers because the room is right next to two other rooms, one of which is occupied by someone who would not be comfortable living in such close proximity to an unknown,... and I simply do not have the ability to screen people with an acceptable degree of thoroughness from the opposite end of the state. My pool of possibilities is therefore limited to people either they or I am familiar with.
Spiel done. Please leave a comment if you're interested and need more details. GREATLY appreciated.

Caught sight of this link off Aliotsy’s page, and wow, I’m speechless: Slimming photos with HP digital cameras. Cameras do stretch images out sometimes, but I can see this sort of feature encouraging distorted self-image as much as accurate representation. Is it any different from resizing an image? I’d assume that it is . . . Can’t tell from the demo.
Started a Vox blog, though God knows why when I barely update this one. I’ll figure out something to do with it.
Hit the cap on Beta (only took me a month and a half) and can’t be arsed to do anything else now but instance.
Hillsbrad instance in Caverns of Time doesn’t allow Night Elves because we’re still being ninja-like. Ugly Druid leather looks super-crap on humans.
