Things that distracted me from working today:

1. Tweaking my iGoogle page. My additions included Honolulu weather (rainy, 79) and an easy link to apartment listings on craigslist oahu.

2. This appearance of the word "pedestrian" in my denial letter from the NSF graduate fellowship program (more on that, maybe later, when I don't feel so......so.....stomach-clenched, run-over-by-a-truck).


Oh boy, glad UHM didn't see that.

Being on the receiving end of this word, my initial reaction was "low blow!!", soon replaced by "nice usage!!" I need to start slipping that wittily into conversation at every opportunity.

3. Really cool stoves that can run on Jatropha oil. Made by those Germans.

4. T
his flowchart Nathan sent me illustrating correct application of the "oh snap!"
