Forget all the things I should have said

Nothing much to report for the last two weeks. Last week I was distracted for most of the week by the midterm for Tino’s grad algorithms course. Spent a few hours chilling at Maxfield’s with fellow victims afterwards [1]. Then I realized I had a group presentation for another class and spent most of Saturday and Sunday preparing that.
The weekend before my parents were visiting so I took them, Allison, and Eli out to dinner at Maxfield’s on Friday and on Saturday we drove to Montreal to hang out for the day [2].
This weekend should be interesting because Cloudchaser (ne Brendan) will be visiting. There’s an open house on Saturday, but I’ll be across town taking the computer science GRE subject test — something I’m not looking forward to, having gone through the practice book and seen some of the questions. Hopefully most of the schools won’t hold it against me, since taking the subject test is optional for 5 of the 6 schools I’m applying to.
Hmm. That reminds me that I need to finish my statement of porpoise, as Eli likes to call it. *sigh*
Picked up Halo 2 Tuesday morning from EB in Massena and have been playing it quite a bit the last two days. Definitely better than the original. Still need to get a real multiplayer game going though.
Also decided yesterday to investigate whether anyone had written a quotes plugin for WordPress. Found some guy had written a had to display a random quote, which I then hacked up to display them all and to support quote categories. The result can be experienced here.
Update: Also, if you get the opportunities you should see the following movies: Seducing Doctor Lewis (hilarious), Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and The Incredibles (awesome). Don’t bother watching Story of the Weeping Camel.
