Not quite a month late this year, woo.
From September 4, 2008 to September 4, 2009 I...
...started writing my thesis.
...attended Obama's inauguration.
...managed to make two decent roadtrips.
...built two crazy devices for Burning Man.
...played in and ran a serious RPG campaign for the first time since high school.
...started doing a lot of urban hiking, combined with informal surveying for an open mapping project.
...made it from 16 to 32 with a perfect driving record!
25, my penultimate power of two. It's petty, but I'm just not very satisfied with my life right now. Which can only be resolved by finishing the thesis and getting back to Seattle, but it's hard to get work done when depressed. I'm trying to find a good balance between enough crazy side projects to keep me sane and still devoting the time needed to writing/finishing experiments. The truth is right now I'm feeling completely burned out on computers and programming. I just want to make physical items for a living, have a tangible result at the end of the day, and that seems highly unlikely.
