Snow and Lights: The Things He Loved
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-things-he-loved.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Tuesday, January 27, 2015. The Things He Loved. This Saturday, I went to the Melrose for the first time in my life with Chloe and two of her friends, Wes (her boyfriend) and Harry (a friend). I can't remember exactly how we got onto the subject other than that we were talking about funk, or things being funky, and also it turns out that Wes is a drummer for a funk band sometimes. And my children.". Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mar 22 - Mar 29. Mar 1 - Mar 8. Feb 8 - Feb 15.

Snow and Lights: All I Wanted Was a Pat Down
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/all-i-wanted-was-pat-down.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Monday, January 19, 2015. All I Wanted Was a Pat Down. When I was coming back from China, I had a layover in Dallas. My plan was to - as I always do - jump off the plane, run to customs, and be the first one to the gate for the next flight. The only thing standing in my way is, of course, the TSA. Looking inside your pants. Second, who knows how secure those images are? Sorry That was more politics that I wanted here. Anyway, as soon as I got to the front of the line, I went to the...

Snow and Lights: New Year's Devolutions
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/new-years-devolutions.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Monday, January 19, 2015. I've started to feel pretty guilty about my terrible discipline in memorializing things for the past couple years. I used to take pictures all the time. Anyway, so the goal is to write three posts in any subset of my journals that I feel like per week. That might include public and private ones, or just ones that (if anyone is still reading this.) you don't know about, so. just a heads up? Also a heads up to my future self. =). Mar 22 - Mar 29. Feb 27 - Ma...

Snow and Lights: The Very Last Goodbye to Nana
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2014/04/the-very-last-goodbye-to-nana.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Sunday, April 20, 2014. The Very Last Goodbye to Nana. My nana (grandmother on my mom's side) died this Friday. I was never particularly close to her, as I'm not particularly close to many people in my family. I haven't cried about it (yet? That does make me feel a little bit strange, but there are also some explanations for that. If I have grandchildren, I hope they would cry for me. We'll see. Of her awareness. She would sometimes think that my mom - who was probably the clos...

Snow and Lights: In 10 City
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/in-10-city.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Thursday, January 22, 2015. I've been daydreaming quite a lot recently. I guess that this is actually an issue (? That I've had for a pretty good while, but it definitely feels like a different quality/intensity now than it has before. My daydreams don't take me to Cambodia very often, and I'm not really sure why that is. I guess that's just how it goes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Mar 22 - Mar 29. Mar 1 - Mar 8.

Snow and Lights: Oh, I'll Remember You
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/03/oh-ill-remember-you.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Sunday, March 01, 2015. Oh, I'll Remember You. I think I do pretty well at career fairs. I've worked on being more light-hearted over the past few years, I guess, and that seems to play pretty well at such an event. It kind of allows you to brag without seeming like a massive jerk. Towards the end, in the obligatory "next steps" part of the conversation, I asked for her business card. She told me, "I think you're the first person to ask for my business card all day!

Snow and Lights: The Interview
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-interview.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Thursday, January 22, 2015. I had an interview with [Redacted] Games a little bit before Christmas that I think was just about the worst interview that I've ever had. Well, maybe the interview for the Fulbright Scholarship was worse, but in that case I was totally unprepared for what was going to happen, so it's not really even comparable. But I guess is now more of a manager(? Anyway, the first question was like, "Do you know what [Redacted] Games does? Again, the truth here is th...

Snow and Lights: How You Know That You're in China
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/how-you-know-that-youre-in-china.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Monday, January 19, 2015. How You Know That You're in China. As I've said before, I basically jump out of planes as soon as the seat belt sign is turned off at the gate after landing. I happened to be really lucky on this particular flight because the flight attendant pitied me when I asked for a right-handed desk to do work (I already had a left-handed aisle seat) and gave me an open seat in the front row. That didn't really. First one, woohoo! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Snow and Lights: 3/22/15 - 3/29/15

I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Sunday, March 22, 2015. It was not Friday. Why Songela Should Have Hated Me. Sometime in the early-to-middle part of governor's school this year, Songela was having some trouble with some command she was trying to run to get Rails up and working properly. She asked me if I could help, so of course I said I'd try, and at about 11:15PM or so, we sat down together to try to figure out what was wrong. The details are a little. Anyway, feeling like I had screwed something up in her sess...

Snow and Lights: It's Working
http://chemicalroad.blogspot.com/2015/01/its-working.html
I COLLECT YOUR ISSUES. Friday, January 23, 2015. I wrote a Chrome extension tonight that redirects me to my to-do list if I try to go to Reddit. Or, at least, it redirects me 95% of the time. It was basically four lines of code:. Chrome.tabs.onUpdated.addListener(function(tabID, changeInfo, tab){. If (tab.url & (tab.url.search("www.reddit.com")! If (Math.random() 0.95){. Chrome.tabs.update(tabID,{url: "https:/ keep.google.com/#home"});. Probably because I was on Reddit all the time. Mar 22 - Mar 29.
