So...today, I went to church, got some lunch, browsed around at a thrift store and CompUSA for an hour or so, drove home, hacked SMW a little, took a three-hour (?) nap, watched some TV, messed around with my new monitor stand a little, hacked SMW some more, played around in MAME for a while, checked all my usual websites...and now, it's only 11:55PM. I feel like I've been awake for 24 hours, and there's still about 4 or 5 hours to go until I can even consider sleeping.

Has today (2/25) felt unusually long for anyone else?

Yesterday (as 2/25 is now yesterday for me) felt especially short, since I went to bed at 4am, woke up at 3pm, and spent almost the entire rest of the day trying to sort out the Pit of 100 Trials with Kattwah. I was lucky just to get my homework done for tomorrow

I was at a party at 12 AM. Went up to the girls' room with the other guys and hung out (nothing happened... I was there, and If I'm there there is no action. Its a rule plus they have boyfriends) Then at about 1:30 we got told to go to sleep, but we didn't and got pizza. Then we went to sleep.

I woke up, cleaned the hotel room. Brought my stuff out to the van. Went and ran a 5k in snowshoes (damn, that was a tough race... Too many hills). Waited for the awards ceremony to finish, even though I didn't come close to winning. The ENTIRE NATIONALS TEAM WAS THERE for Christs sake, no one from our team stood a chance in hell of coming close to them.

then we went home, I slept for the (about) 1.5 hour ride from lake placid, got home, at salsa+nachos, yelled at my mother to stop treating me like I'm 5, lied down, got up, played guitar, went to sleep, woke up at like 12. Got on the computer, and here I am.

Its 3:06 AM here, and I have school in 4 hours and about 40 minutes. I don't want to go, and I don't want to stay home.

As a matter of fact, I wish I was someone else at this point in time.

please leave a message after the beep.

2,200 dollars between two guys in six hours based on the fact we usually get about 300 on dead Sundays?

Yea, I'd say so. Five cellphone cells and numerous people asking about weather radios that we sold out of here and the store across the way is abnormal. The fact that people panic over rainstorms and small chances of snow down here is incredible.

Otherwise, not really too much to tell you. :\

Nope, today hasn't felt longer than any other day.

But I did feel like I did a lot of stuff on my Saturday night in a short amount of time. A lot of very fun stuff (new things yay)

I recommend that everyone go out and find somewhere that sells Timmermans Peche Lambic beer NOW.

Bah, that's probably an Aussie-only or an imported beer.

I didn't do much today, and as a result the day passed by quickly. Let's just hope work's like that tomorrow.

It's Belgian. And the Belgians know how to make gooooood beer. That particular one tastes of peaches.

Actually, yesterday (2/25) did feel kind of long. With the snow here, I didn't go anywhere and without my SO, days get really long. Also, walking someone through using PowerPoint, oh yeah... fun*cough* yeah...

P.S. I hate Java.
This is all.

It was long for me too, but mostly becuse half of the day I tried to think of things to do. :/ Day ended with me being tired, and then getting waked up in the middle of the night due to a fire-alarm. That was caused by some waterleak...

Yesterday, like every day, felt really short to me. Every day now it feels like I wake up and then I have to go to bed.

Amen. Try having to go to school in the afternoon like I do.

Not fun. Not fun at all.

Pretty long, considering I was on FFXI for the entirety of the day(save for an hour break for dinner and the hour I was awake beforehand).

You'd think MMOs would shorten things, but noooo, not when there's bosses to prepare for! DX

2/25 was short here, mainly due to me only being up 11 hours.

I slept until 6-7pm, believe it or not, so it was short here too.

I got up late and went to bed early, so I guess my day was rather short ... but that's how it usually goes for me on Sunday

2/25... let's see

The day before that, I started working on that OPL3 midi player thingy, and I was fooling around with the OPL3 emulator code from mame, then I found a version that was edited to work outside of mame, so I used that. Then I spent a while trying to get it to make noise, which I did. Then I spent the rest of the day trying to figure out how I could get the midi player to get the timing right, since midi's method of timing confuses the dickens out of me (mostly because I didn't know how to convert microseconds to 1/44100 seconds). So Acmlm helped me figure it out, so I started working on that and finished around 3-4am.

So that's the preface.
On 2/25, I woke up at 10-11am, intending to work on a Java project due at 10:30pm that night (I had about a month to work on in and hadn't even looked at it yet ), but instead, I decided to work on the midi player, to try to get it to play midis. I spent all morning on it, until maybe around 5 pm. At that time, I had done a bunch of revisions and yeah, it plays midis fine now. But I worked pretty much nonstop... I didn't eat, didn't shower, nothing I usually do in the morning. When I was done, I took a shower (to make up for not having taken one the night before). The time I spent working on the midi player thingy seemed to breeze by.

Then I started working on my project, having under 5 hours to complete it and submit it. This seemed kinda long, because I had to design a text-based Battleship game, complete with cpu AI, using sparse matrixes for the board (sparse matrixes only store data for occupied cells), and I had to do it this way and make that and create this, blah blah, so I worked on that from 5pm all the way until 9:20pm, when I finished everything and submitted it.

So yeah, yesterday was long and short. Also, it was snowing that morning, which sucks because it's too warm for it to do anything, and it wasn't snowing long enough to get classes cancelled today. So basically all of the paths are narrow again, since they don't like shoveling the entire width. Just when the old snow, which had frozen and stayed around for a week or so had finally almost melted completely due to warm weather and rain.

Yesterday felt pretty short for me. I didn't have any chores to do on Sunday like I normally do so it felt more like a Saturday. Saturdays go by pretty fast for me.
