Lessons

Lessons learned this week:

1) Windows 7 does not like Zone Alarm's free firewall and will do horrible things to my PC when I try to install it.

2) If I'm exposed to a lot of bright fluorescent light for a sufficient period of time, I get nauseous.

3) It's apparently considered unprofessional to convert one's cubicle to a Bedouin-style tent.

4) Reinstalling an OS after four or five pints is not a good idea.

5) The local dive bar is now considered one of the most popular spots to go in the area.

6) Rearranging my room after having had a frustrating week is not the wisest thing I could do.

7) I am far, far worse at martial arts than I first believed myself to be.

8) LCD monitors ain't cheap.
