I usually try to have cohesive meals. I try to have meals that could be described by one genre: Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Mexican, American, etc. My lunch today was nothing cohesive. I had microwave burritos, Japanese green tea, banana bread, and Cheez-Its. Random.

There’s no school today. Classes after noon were closed, and the offices were closed, too. It’s pretty bad out. I picked today (of all days!) to walk to class. Looking outdoors, I figured that it was too cold for my car to start, so I decided just to walk. My car probably would have started fine. It was relatively warm out, but it was very windy. Also, it was raining, with the temperature being slightly below freezing. This means that when I finally got to my Math021 job, I was a half hour late, my pants were soaked, and all my exposed skin was red and painful from the battering of tiny ice crystals from the sky. Oh well.

I’m watching “March of the Penguins” right now. My brother “found” (*cough*cough*) a copy online, and he lent it to me. It seems a fitting film for the weather around me.

I should be working on Discrete Math, which would have been due at 1, but I think he’ll let it slide. I just have one proof left.

Given a piece of paper 1 inch by 3 inches, only a finite number of characters can be written on it in 12 point font. Therefore, only a finite number of positive integers can be described in 12 point font. Explain why defining S={x in Z+ | x is described above} leads to a contradiction.

This dry weather is murder on my nails. They get really dry and then they crack easily. I start catching them on bookbags and doors and sweaters and all that. It’s terrible.

I’m reading The Chronicles of Narnia, one book of which has been made into a movie. The books go pretty fast, and I’ve found that I really enjoy them. It does remind me, though, that I need to get going on LOTR eventually. I think I’m smack in the middle of The Fellowship.

Who the hell invented penguins? They have to be the strangest bird alive.
