Conquering stuff...

Dmitri is playing piano in the next room... so nice. Did I mention that I love living here?

The basement (my future bedroom complete with bathroom, door to the backyard, and my drumset) should be mostly done this weekend... done enough so that I can move in. I can’t wait.

My fancy new Igloo Spacemate mini-refrigerator arrived this week!  It operates on the thermoelectric principle (removinging heat via electricity and some trickiness), so it doesn’t have a compressor, so it’s about silent.  And it’s really light.  And it holds lots.

This is a very scattered post.

Plans for my parallel port LCD screen (and eventually my car mp3 player) are moving along nicely.  After buring out two LCD screens, learning that I had the wrong schematics, and discovering that what I read online (that all HD44780 LCDs are pin-compatible) was a complete lie, I am ready to move forward.  I am excited.

I also got a 5x zoom lens for my camera!  Combined with my camera’s built-in 3x that means I have 15x of zoom.  That is otherworldly powerful.  But it’s been overcast since I got it, so I haven’t been able to take any moon photos.  Anyway, the cool thing about this lens is that it was only $20 more than the 2x lens that I got (and will return) a couple weeks ago at Circuit City.  You really do save so much money by shopping online.

And, I had an EE310 exam tonight from 8-10, and it went really well.

So it’s been an awesome day/week.  Kaiser is coming out from his school this weekend, and we’re going to check out J4 and go biking and stuff.  Woohoo!
