Well, it’s finally cooled down some. It was 80 degrees for a few days last week, and now it’s a nice 65, with it hitting about 72 today….you know, if you believe such forecasts.
It’s interesting to me, because a simple ten or fifteen degrees makes a huge difference between way too hot and really comfortable.
I’m sure I have a number of friends and family in engineering and medicine who could tell me why that is, but I’m pretty content knowing that it’s true.
In other news, my good friend Adam is moving out to Seattle on Wednesday. It’ll be awesome to have a long-time friend in relatively close proximity. He’ll be staying with us until he finds a place, which, knowing Adam, won’t be too long.
I’ve also been playing Too Human for the last week…even though it comes out on Tuesday. Lots of messages from friends asking how I’m playing it already. Definitely one of the best work perqs I’ve ever gotten on the twenty years I’ve been working.
Free games, and getting them a week or more before street date? It’s like game geek heaven.
Looking around the bus, there has to be at least twenty people with ipods and iPhones. Maybe Apple should quit with the overpriced and underwhelming computers they’ve been putting out for the last several years and stick to handhelds. And no, I’m not talking about the Newton.
Busy day today, so more later.

Sheeesh…somebody other than me remebers the Newton? So I am not the only ancient guy on the block. I have the lame excuse though that I never owned one, but a friend of mine did…really!
…why is the ‘a friend of mine’ approach always laced with disbelief?
