Dichroic Reflections

things I know now

Things I've learned today:

• Apparently my tastes don't match
  Unknown Legend's. The new juniors coach isn't really all that cute. Though
  he seems like a reasonably nice guy.
• Microsoft Access is
  neither intuitively obvious nor well-documented. (Big surprise there, it being a
  Microsoft product.) Along related lines, Windows Me still sucks. My computer likes
  to sometimes run v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y for no reason it is willing to share with
  me.
• My college roommate is still frighteningly organized. I
  thought it was pretty cool when she e-mailed me the other day to tell me she'd
  given birth, but now I've also gotten a formal birth announcement. Note that today
  is January 11 and the baby was born on New Year's Day. Most first-time parents
  seem to be barely coherent at that point, much less addressing envelopes. I'm very
  happy for her, of course, and I have to admit, the idea of a baby born on New
  Year's Day is pretty cool.
• One of my local bead places has a
  much greater selection available through a catalog, and even though it says $5
  right there on the cover in big letters, they will give you one for free if you
  ask. (Uh-oh.)

I haven't heard yet from the interview people
though. (Not necessarily a bad sign, since they said they'd call early next week.)
After all, you can't learn everything in one day.
