Printer's Row Book Fair
I went to the annual Printer's Row Book Fair. It was nice. It would have been nice to go with someone, or to stay longer, but it's finals week.
Mischief Avoided
I didn't go to the Drake Hotel after all.
Music
I saw Maurizio Pollini.
Ibn al Arif
"Al-lah is not visible when we are seeing with the eyes; only when all the formulas vanish."
Haunt
Am I not answering my cel phone? Am I not answering my e-mail? If I'm in my apartment, I don't have e-mail. Otherwise I may be at the computer lab, the library, or in class. My schedule for this quarter is:

Encyclopedia of Pain
I work in a computer lab in the basement of the science library. At our last staff meeting we picked up printer paper from behind the circulation desk. Someone noticed a book called The Encyclopedia of Pain. Someone else said, "Imagine if we pulled up the checkout record and every name was Chuck Norris."
Listmanias
I've made a few Listmania lists on Amazon. One is on Buddhist books (148 views... neat!), and the other is on heartbreak albums (4 views... oh well).
Random Picture
The Pacific off San Onofre last August.
