Having a bad day?
My little brother would be happy to cheer you up.
To avoid making this blog too short, allow me to complain about Google Drive. You see, I love Docs. I use them all the time for taking collaborative notes in class. However, the Android app doesn't work for me. It …Rushing in where Angels Fear to Tread
I suddenly have a new respect for watchmakers. As you may recall, I have an obsession with cheap, Chinese mechanical watches. I received this Goer skeleton watch for Christmas, but the filigree designs on the front were just a sticker, and a misaligned sticker at that. I resolved to …
|bd| Bureaucratic Work
So, I have almost 20 hours of work in my university's Technology Dept. this semester. I also received a freestanding cubicle! It's not quite a corner office, but it's a bit of a perk over the sequentially attached ones.
After I've fixed all the problems I need to fix, I …|bd| What I've Been Doing, and Why I'm a Zombie
I'm two weeks from finals, in the middle of project land.
I have clean laundry piled up that hasn't been folded since Sunday afternoon when I washed it. Tonight I have a play performance (sound technician) and then I'll be cleaning for White Glove check tonight. Tomorrow morning brings an …|bd| Forced to Buy a Keyboard

|bd| Minecraft Mockumentary - Vote for My Entry!
So, I joined some pals last weekend in making a Minecraft mockumentary for a 48-hour video contest. This short pokes fun at people addicted to Minecraft *cough*64Digits*cough*. I was pushing for the name "Mindcrack," but lost to "Minefreak." The website seems to be experiencing issues, but if it starts working …
|bd| On the Possible Consumption of AT&T by T-Mobile
I was blissfully enjoying a relaxing Spring Break, when suddenly an RSS feed informs me that AT&T has inked a deal to eat T-Mobile. Not happy, not happy at all.
Currently, I have 500 daytime minutes and unlimited data and messaging for $60 a month with T-Mobile. That's on an …|bd| Good Headphones and Vinyl
Several weeks ago I decided that I was going to break down and buy some quality headphones. I first tried the AKG K77's and was dissatisfied. I researched in excess of 8 hours before deciding on the AKG K240 Studios. (Note that I looked at many other brands, I just …
