"\"things fall apart; the center cannot hold;\nmere anarchy is loosed upon the world\""

--Yeats in my EEPROM tester

 

Spent last weekend in Chattanooga, am spending the upcoming one in Tampa, and am hoping to buy tickets soon for a weekend in NYC and surrounds. It's true that I'm through with Atlanta in some ways, but if I don't stop splurging (time|money) on weekend trips, I'm never going to get on with my Grand Plans. The problem with Grand Plans, though, is that it's very difficult to find preliminary small goals that will help to enact the Grand Plans. Suddenly jumping in cold water and throwing your whole body into shock holds a certain appeal, though.

Some small goals:

  • ACA painting class with Bonnie in the fall
  • Graduate Algorithms with Dr. Randall, also fall semester
  • Feel more healthy, i.e., lose fifteen pounds.
  • Send notes to those people who I've cut off contact with and regret it: primarily Ashley from high school and Jason from college
  • Read more CS/math journals, ponder upon whether I really find them interesting
  • Read more poetry, ponder upon whether I really find it enlightening
  • Budget and save money more expeditiously
  • Determine what work tasks might lead to a stint in our Paris office
  • Do them?
