My schedule means I have virtually no time to do anything but work (including the commute) during the week, and increasingly the two days of weekend that I have tend to have an overflowing list of “stuff I’ve been wanting to do – often for quite a while – but can’t possibly do much of in the time I have this weekend”<\/p>\n
I’ve got a minimum of two different podcasts\/oggcasts that I can be working on (Episode 4 of “Stir-Fried Stochasticity”, regarding Tuberculosis and “heat-fixing” [and ninjas], should be ready to post soon. I also have plans to do an intermittent computer-nerd podcast, perhaps also to be submitted for “Hacker Public Radio<\/a>“.) I have a bit of relatively minor but useful hardware-hacking to do (make a cable allowing me to plug an external microphone into my Android phone for potentially recording podcast\/oggcast material and other things). I have work to do on www.dogphilosophy.net (which I plan to turn into the main podcast\/oggcast distribution site). I have vague ideas of general creative endeavors that I could work on developing. I have a seemingly endless mass of domestic chores that could be attended to (it’s quite frightening to think of myself as “the neat one” in this house…).<\/p>\n It’s grotesquely hot outside as usual (why is it that no matter what part of the country I live in, the temperatures seem to spend most of their time 5-10°F above supposedly “normal” for the last decade or so? My hypothesis is that the universe dislikes me for some reason), so outdoor activities are currently lacking from my list.<\/p>\n I need one of those “life” things I keep hearing about. I’ve heard they’re kind of fun.<\/p>\n Any suggestions from anyone (anonymous or otherwise)?<\/p>\n P.S. Motorola corporation sucks. Thankfully it turns out HTC (unlike Motorola) actually knows what “geotagging” means…<\/p>\n Also P.S.: only one post and one off-blog comment letting me know the “Breakdancing Ghost of Narada Falls<\/a>” post actually worked. Did anyone else listen to it (or try to and find they couldn’t)? If so, how did it sound?
