Mirrors k. So lydaalexander.com now mirrors my blog. it'll just take some time to publish each time. And if (when) the server breaks, my blog will still publish to pluto. Ha.
Speaking my mind (or not)... I hate it when someone says something that really pisses me off, and I bite my tounge in the interest of not causing a scene... and then later, I realize I really should have said something. And in hindsight, I know exactly what I should have said...
*sigh* I guess there's a fine line between speaking my mind and being a bitch. And I probably need to push that line a little more than I do... I'm just so tired of putting up with crap that I really shouldn't have to put up with.
I don't expect the world to move underneath me, but for God's sake could you try?
New things: I am now in possesion of one 4gb black iPod nano. Yay for me! (Been waiting on it for like, a month).
I cut all of my hair off. Well... to be fair, not all of it, I guess. I was just tired of getting my hair stuck in doors and accidentally setting it on fire and stuff... so I cut like, 11" off it and am sending the cut-off hair to Locks Of Love. I wasn't sure how I would adjust to short hair again, or how Chad would like it, but all seems to have turned out well. :-) Yeah. New hair length: just almost to my shoulders.
The server where lydaalexander.com resides is apparently back up. ANd has been for like a week, but no one (including Chad) bothered to tell me, so I haven't done anything about it. That being said... until we get possesion of the site (read: January at the earliest), I think I'll leave it here, and just post a redirect from lydaalexander. Or maybe a mirror or something. I don't know. This webspace will be deleted in January, so I have to figure something out before then. I'll let you know.
Chad and I are like the only two people in the world not doing NaNoWriMo. But that is fine... we always have next year to jump on the bandwagon, I guess.
We still have no idea where we are going to live when we get to Houston... although we now know we will *not* be buying a house in Clearlake proper... although renting there is certainly still an option. I've interviewed for some jobs, all in like, central Houston... but no word back yet. And I decided to apply to Rice for a psychology degree... no idea if they'll accept me, or anything like that. We'll see, I guess.
Anyway... That is all I really have to say, I guess. I'm so counting the days until graduation....
10th Dimension? Hey... does anyone out there know a real quick and easy way to slice a 10 dimensional hypercube on some sort of diagonal? Like, if I had a regular cube (specifically a 3d matrix), I could cut it from top left front corner to bottom right back corner, and get two halves. Each half could then be divided by parallel planes or whatever, the first cut is the hard part.
I can handle 3d, because I can draw it on paper. I'm a little lost doing the same in 10d... although, at this point, I would really settle for dividing a 6d hypercube...
Chad and I finally got our Thanksgiving planning done a couple weeks ago. Now we're trying to get the Christmas planning done... which is amazingly complicated. And made more amazingly complicated by the fact that we have to move at some point during the holidays. And we have to at least start looking for a place to live. And Chad has to be here for some finite amount of time to prepare a conference paper.
Crazy.
So the plans, thus far, look like this: For Christmas, we will be in Huntsville for a couple of days either before or after Christmas, no idea which. And we'll be in Memphis for a couple of days including Christmas day and Christmas Eve night. We'll be in Houston probably right after graduation, for like, two days. And we'll officially leave for Houston... sometime. Maybe before or after Chad's conference thingy, but I'm not (exactly) sure when that is.
We'l be in Starkville this coming weekend, and Memphis (for a ball game) the next weekend... Then Thankgiving, which I'm not even going to talk about.
Dinner at Harveys tonight. And a Masters degree in December (as long as I don't, like, fail any of my classes, which would be hard at this point). Yay for me.
