State of my life address

  1. I appear to be on the cusp between freedom and working, after 15 glorious world-traveling months of the former.

  2. I really really don't want to go back to teaching at an English conversation school. Argh.

  3. However, I did an interview at English Village, the school Billy, aka Mr Momo, told me about last Friday or so.

  4. According to the numbers I saw, 60% of the students' pay goes to the teachers. They pay every 40 minutes what teachers get every hour.

  5. I've been working a lot on my website (likely moving to dreamhost.com and working on the images display script), using Hitomi's computer while mine is.... unusable due to lack of a hard drive and CPU freezes within a couple minutes of booting.

  6. I've sorta gotten used to Hitomi's keyboard, which is smaller and Japanesier than mine. It has keys in the wrong places, but my fingers can generally find them now. " ' * _ @ + ~ are all in the wrong places.

  7. This version of emacs is buggier than the previous version I had. This is version 21.3.50.

  8. Using Jesse's flat panel display so I don't have to be crunched up over the laptop to use it.

  9. At this point, images can check for tables it needs, and I've got code that can display a directory tree of the image directory. I plan to use this code to ease the importation of images.

  10. No girlfriend, no pets, low money, and for a bit longer, no job.

  11. Still wearing the shoulder harness thing from when I broke my shoulder. Going to hospital tomorrow for what I hope will be the final check, and get it off and begin careful exercises.

  12. Really torn between going home and sticking out one more year here just to get out of debt.

  13. Back in touch with Kim Sawyer recently to get my life back on track. Thankful for that resource.

  14. In close touch with Dude and Fred. Slightly in touch with Ma. A bit in touch with Dad.

  15. Recently fell in love with Rachel from 88slide. She's a cutie!

    Will likely be making a guest appearance on an episode. Hopefully more than one!

  16. Downloaded Barkanoid 2, and have enjoyed that a few times. Only 9 levels available without paying money or cracking it.
