a start on the new webpage

well i finally made a few updates to my webpage. i still have to actually post all my old technique articles, and i have more pictures to scan and add to the houston-san fran road trip page, but hey, at least i got a little bit done.

(5:43 p.m.)

i just added about 15 more pictures to the road trip page. i think i'm done with days 1 and 2...more pictures from days 3 and 4 are forthcoming.

i got my first major plea for money from georgia tech today. i guess that's what happens when you become an alum. included was a brochure listing the names of everyone who has graduated in the past ten years who has donated, and i was happy to see that my name is already on the list. probably for the measely $5 that i gave the student foundation, but still, i am a donor. ha! well, we will see how much i can afford to give them now.

i like the idea of supporting my alma mater. when i am rich and famous, i will donate money for something cool--you know, like free paper in the aerospace computer lab, or more pizza for the technique office. ;) ha ha ha. no, seriously, i will give money for something like a scholarship for aerospace students, or maybe if i am really rich, for an endowed chair.

(11:23 p.m.)

it is COLD! tonight it is supposed to get down to 37 degrees. and here i am without even my heavy coat. i have plenty of sweatshirts, so i guess i'll just pile 'em on. time to dig out the fleece tigger hat.

i talked to chris tonight and he said carter bought a house. !! of course boy hadn't told me it was official, i just knew he was thinking about it. now i will have to wait until tomorrow when i can call and harass him for more details! wow. a house. chris also said chrissy looks like she will take a job in houston...which i find very ironic. i've been a semi-houstonite for years now, liz moved there last june, becca will move there in january, chrissy will now move there in january...and i will in all likelihood move there this coming june when i finish my master's and take a full-time job. (note to readers--yes, i am still thinking i will take the job.) that makes four people from my extended crowd of friends at tech that will have moved to houston, and that's not even counting all my co-op friends that are already there. crazy. but nice.
