but heaters are a wonderful invention. And so are fireplaces... And hot chocolate.

One of my coworkers keeps calling me evil.

I love my job. It's absolutely wonderful to work for real money, to work around people who tell me they appreciate my skills, and to work with other computer geeks. Work has a really casual atmosphere, with a lot of bantering between employees. Level in the company is insignificant when it comes to the bantering - everyone from the CEO/Founder to the gofers participate. There's a little under 50 people in the company. Weeee!

I love my car. It is an absolutely wonderful car, even if it doesn't have as much power as I could wish. It drives beautifully, and the ACT clutch and Flyin' Miata flywheel were great additions (not recommended for those who want a passive Miata, but great for the aggressive Miata driver). I'm looking at other things I should do to/for the engine. I'm also planning on putting Falken Azenis RS on it the next time it needs tires. I wonder how they'll do in the wet compared to the Toyo Proxies T1-S...

[info]nugget and I are going to Japan soon. I have never been out of the US, so this will be quite an experience for me. I'm really excited about it, but I don't tend to act very excited... Nugget oozes enough excitement for the both of us. ;)

Ummm... what else? I dunno. I miss driving around the country with a trailer camping at state parks. Staying in hotels when I travel is always... Different? A little off? Almost a treat, but somehow not. *shrug* I dunno. I'm just weird.

My jaw is doing fairly well (post wisdom teeth removal). I was in for a check up today. It turns out I have a "medium" dry socket on my lower right, and a "minor" one on my lower left. The one on the left is so small, the dentist almost couldn't see it, and it hasn't hurt me at all. The one on the right has caused two brief instances of some pretty bad pain, but not the worst I've ever had. My baseline pain level is to almost-unnoticeable at this point. Eating pulls it up to noticeable, but not bad. Oh, and my stitches are starting to come out (EEEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!)

I think I need to get my wisdom teeth removed. My jaw hurts. And though it's very similar to the way it hurt when my arthritis was being painful, it doesn't seem to be quite right. And my dentist told me my wisdom teeth would probably need to be removed before too long.

This sucks.

Yipe! Those are some scary critters, and some entertaining descriptions.

I'm updating? Again? Yipe.

On a side note, yipe seems to have become one of my new favorite words.

With the end of school, my internship with Hire.com is coming to a close. I've found a position with Perseus Labs. They're essentially a test group for a variety of hardware and software. It sounds like it should be fun, and quite educational. They seemed to like the Miata when I was there for my interview.

The car's doing pretty well, though it's time for an oil change and, I suspect, a clutch. It had a bath last weekend, so of course it's been rainy this week.

And finally, tomorrow is my birthday. My family and I are probably going to dinner tomorrow... My mother is a bit worried. She feels like she doesn't have enough birthday presents for me. The switch for the windows in my car was having problems, and I told her she could buy me a new one for my birthday... and, well, that's pretty much it. I told her she doesn't need to get me a ton of presents - I know she loves me, and that's the point of the presents, right? But *shrug* she's mom. I'm still her little girl. I'm very, very grateful to have such a giving, helpful mom.
