So yeah, it's been a long time since I updated. I haven't done anything particularly interesting since last time, just school. Grad school will rough you up. The end of this coming week marks halfway through the term though.
I did end up buying Civ4, but it's less exciting than I'd hoped. In particular the combat stinks, but at least they fixed the screwup from Civ3 where spearmen would beat tanks. I have pretty much thrashed Ace Combat 5 except for a couple of medals left to earn.
I'm grading exams this weekend. Circumstances led to my pulling double duty this time, but that should mean I get a really easy time later in the term when I'll probably need it more. I'm halfway done so far, I need to put another six or seven hours in today.
I'm getting some useful stuff done on the side though. I finally filled out a draft for my program of study, and I graded this week's prelabs which are a big help during the week. I seem to be having a little more trouble putting names to faces in my labs, and I forgot a couple of people that I had last term but aren't in my current labs. And then there was the dude who shaved his heavy beard, thus rendering himself completely unrecognizable to me, to his great amusement.
IE7 Beta is out, but I haven't used it yet. Not for lack of trying - it won't install because of something I did to Windows a couple months ago to free up drive space. I wish laptop hard drives were bigger. I hear IE7 is a good step up though.
