I was supposed to go through Human Subjects training a year ago, and I never did it. Then my boss asked me if I wanted to do it to do interviews for her and get some extra hours of work doing interviews, and I didn't do it.

Now I realized what I want to do for my final project, and I need the certification. Damnit.

This lady I had a crush on in college just sent me a really silly chain email. I guess it's flattering that I was one of the first 10 people she thought of, even though I have only seen her three times in the last 7 years?

Or maybe she has become a recluse and has not made any new friends.

You sound almost hopeful.

First day at the new gig. It is gonna be an exciting job. I am pumped.
...
It took two and a half hours to get home. I have no idea why. I stood there in an unheated train station, on a 20 degree day, for an hour. Train after train came-- going to the coast, going straight west, or going express to Trenton/Philly. No local trains, no explanation.

I guess what I meant is an explanation of when the trains would come. Are they coming soon? Should I go back and wait somewhere else warm? The countdown timer seemed to say that all 4 trains that hadn't shown up should be arriving any minute. The people on the loudspeaker were announcing the other trains coming in as if nothing was wrong.

Saw Protomartyr last night. I didn't realize until I got there that this venue was the place I went the first time I went to Williamsburg. I remember being unimpressed at the time. The show was awesome.

Afterwards went to an adorable little bar in Red Hook where some older dudes were playing folk music and singing. There was a very cute fiddle player my age who seemed a little embarrassed about how much she was shredding.

Went on a really good date. It kind of bums me out how jaded I am about going on dates at this point. I would like to feel a little more excited.

This semester is kicking my butt. I'm over it.

If it makes you feel better El Nino is coming for a visit starting tomorrow and we'll get ~3" of rain dropped on us through the weekend.

Then it'll dry up for the work week. Fuck if that gig seems fair to me.

Realizing that learning some coding skills was a good impulse. At my new internship for some reason they expected me to know the statistical analysis software that they use-- I don't, really, but I am picking it up pretty fast I think. A lot of typing things like CONCATENATE A TO C. PRINT ALL.

On the other hand, I stopped fiddling around with code or any other computer stuff once this new semester started. Looking at it today, it's like it all got sucked out of my brain by a big dumb vacuum. Damn! I feel like I had actually learned some cool stuff. Interestingly the muscle memory is still there-- I can't remember how to do anything consciously, but my fingers remember hotkeys. Here's hoping it's like Spanish, where I think I forget it all but after a few days it clicks and comes back.

Google is always a big help in remembering coding.

Somehow my mom has hidden until just now that she has been hoping I will move back to North Carolina eventually. Sorry, mom.
