ego trippin at the kalends of august

Last weekend I visited May and Sherv in the Bay Area—a totally badass trip! What with the hanging with Sherv and classmates (...and in particular...), seeing Clerks 2, the Flaming Lips, and Ween, and Dim Sum on Sunday before heading out, the weekend was packed with teh awesome.

Clerks 2 was actually good! Don't expect the first Clerks—I'd say this is Kevin Smith's take on a romantic comedy (by contrast, Chasing Amy would probably best be called a romantic tragedy), but with the usual View Askewniverse trappings. Go see it, but maybe see the original first if you're fuzzy on the details, since you'll surely appreciate the references more that way. I have to admit, though, seeing Randal and Dante in Clerks 2 made me feel old. Fuckin' fuck.

Now that I'm back in reality, my head is spinning. I have basically no time for my own crap at work ("can't-say-no-itis" has apparently rubbed off of Marius), which means this weekend will probably be flooded with midnight oil to get some architectural design done. Fuck it; at least after that I'll be able to hide in the lab and have some real fun.

I picked me up a Fluke 175 at Fry's today, and promptly came home and found the nagging bug on my headphone amp board (which has been sitting in my room waiting for attention for too long now). Flukemeters are hot.

And now, to bed. Yay.
