All in Nerdery
I know I said a couple months ago that I was repenting. I changed my mind. The reason is fairly straightforward: programming makes me feel stupid.
If today is one of those days when you just need to be reminded that laughter is good, life goes on and love is possible, take a couple minutes to hear Ben and Bernice talk about their first date back in 1946. Made my morning.
Started classes on Tuesday. Yep. I'm still a freak. I love them. I'm intrigued by new classmates, excited by new opportunities and energized by the feeling of intellectual synergy that permeates campus the first week of classes.
Got stuck in the Mexico City airport for about 24 hours. The thing is, I’ve never been alone in this predicament. There always seem to be dozens, sometimes hundreds of somewhat-worse-for-wear businessmen, families, etc. resigning themselves to a very uncomfortable “delay.”
These sweet sisters, in fact, this whole sweet ward thought they were meeting their future daughter-in-law! People were even asking me if we had a date yet. “Good question,” I wanted to say, “Have we even had a date yet!?”
For an agricultural school with acres of huerta [vegetable gardens], we sure eat a lot of starch!
They love it here…though the first time we had it, I didn’t even recognize what it was supposed to be [nor could I understand the word with the accent.]
The first morning I was here, something woke me up pretty early in the morning—must have been before 4am—and I got up and wandered around. It was still dark, and as I walked by an enclosure something, something large, made one of the most hideously frightening noises I’d ever heard.
