there won't be change overnight. i know that. all i expect to see are gradual steps in a better direction than we've been going.

however...the fact that my optimism is very heavily guarded does not stop me from being extremely happy that our president is now Barack Obama and not George W. Bush. it means baby steps in the right direction are more possible than they used to be, and that's a good thing.

this blog on friday: "in fact, there is one and only one arena in which a crackhead will never disappoint you: you can depend on a crackhead to smoke crack."

this blog on monday: "I just ate some crack. I'm really high."

i screwed up big time.

i should have said that you can only depend on a crackhead to use crack, ingest crack, or somehow introduce crack into his body. i should not have specified that you can depend on crackheads to smoke crack, because some crackheads are stupid enough that they will use crack in thoroughly unintended ways.

i was wrong on friday, and i apologise for the error.

"iron flower" by k's choice has been one of my favourite songs for over ten years now, since i first heard it. i love sarah bettens' harmony line, and i can't listen to this song without singing along to it.

it makes me so sad that there's no karaoke track to it, because i would love to be able to find a vocals-less track to it, find someone else who knows gert's part, and sing it that way, if only just once.

connecting to wpa from my debian box [my eee] was a pain in the ass, and involved lots of messing around with configuration files. so, i decided to write a script this weekend to automate the process and make connecting to wpa-encrypted networks as analogous as possible to connecting to open or wep-encrypted networks using iwconfig, since that's what i'm used to doing.

i tested all of the logic and file processing at home and debugged it this weekend, but this evening at mercury cafe was my first time being able to test the script to see if it actually worked to connect me to a wpa-encrypted network. i've done enough programming to know that no matter how much debugging i do on a theoretical level, i won't feel good until i have tried it in the real world and it does what i wrote it to do.

and...my wpa client does what i wrote it to do! OMG OMG OMG! SO HAPPY.
