A quick update on my life:

1. My motherboard arrived quickly, and my computer is working again. I had a brief scare last weekend while playing around with overclocking the CPU and video card simultaneously. My computer suddenly rebooted on its lonesome and, when it had booted back up, the screen ‘looked funny’. That is, every fourth pixel was missing. I got pretty nervous, but after several hours of tinkering and letting it cool down, the problem remedied itself. I guess I only half-fried one of the rendering pipelines.

I’m currently not overclocking.

2. I have two tests and a quiz yet this week, as well as a not-large-yet-important paper due on Monday. Therefore, I don’t have a lot of free time at the moment. Although, honestly, that really isn’t much of an excuse for not posting stuff here, and I’m not trying to use it as such. I’ve other excuses reserved for that.

3. Last week Megan and I turned in our paperwork stating that we wouldn’t be living in our apartment for the next lease period (beginning in August, as do nearly all leases in Ames). Soon, likely, we’ll put in our paperwork looking for a subleaser starting in May at the absolute latest. This Friday, I’m signing a lease for the next period on the house on 6th Avenue, which is the home of several of my friends (though several will be subsequently moving out). Good thing my dad got that new truck of his, eh?

Anyway, that’s all I care to talk about at the moment. I know my website has been somewhere between a boring and a painful read these last few months, and for that, I apologize. Remember when I said a few months ago that I didn’t want to be one of those emotional, whiny bloggers that does little but bitch and moan about the unfairness of life? Well, that opinion hasn’t changed much, and neither has my situation. So I’m sorry to you all (assuming an audience still exists), but I don’t have a lot of happy stuff to report.
