Workout, Books, etc.

Ok, post-weekend etc. update.

The only day I did not run since last Wednesday was Sunday. The soreness has subsided, which is good, because I can run harder.

I’ve been rereading Cryptonomicon. My grandparents are going to get me some new books (thank you grandparents) including some books on Ruby.

I’ve begun using the prerelease version of KDE 4.1. It is really awesome. Maybe I’ll do some screenshots this week.

I helped install a sundial here yesterday. My grandfather designed it, we went out and purchased stone that was then cut to hold the metal pieces following the design, and then my dad and I cut a flat area into the side of the hill (dig a shallow hole, move dirt so that it is generally level, fill with pea gravel, level gravel that sundial will go on, put sundial on top, level it, align it. Not easy).

I bought some new boots over the weekend. They are black and steel toed. They go up higher on the leg than my old boots. They are awesome.

There you go.
