I looked in the mirror and discovered that I&#8217;ve somehow chipped the corner of my (very nice, expensive, time consuming, uncomfortable to put in) new crown.  It might be a teeth grinding thing, but it&#8217;s a *front* tooth.  What the hell is up with that?  Remember to floss, kids.  Dental care sucks more and more as you age.<\/p>\n<p>Went to see Iron Man again with <lj user=redmed> because, well, it&#8217;s an entertaining movie and we wanted to be entertained.  Stuck around for the extra bit after the credits &#8211; which makes it even that much more awesome.<\/p>\n<p>Spent most of yesterday cleaning.  It was one of those days when I actually had a *desire* to clean \/ mop \/ and so on &#8230; so I went with it.  <\/p>\n<p>Last night, <lj user=redmed> took me on a date.  It was very cool.  We saw &#8220;She Loves Me,&#8221; which is a musical theatre piece.  I&#8217;m not much for musical theatre &#8230; but in moderation it can be very entertaining.  <\/p>\n<p>Hung out at my dad&#8217;s place for a day, which helped with the &#8216;old mental status.  Had a great conversation with my brother, while standing in the garden foraging for strawberries. <\/p>\n<p>Spent last week in North Carolina messing with a cool compute cluster.  Actually got to see <lj user=cariaso> IRL, and met <lj user=evilgreg>.  Saw the 36th fastest (public) computer in the world sitting in a hallway because of a facilities miscalculation.<\/p>\n<p>Going to NASA again next week.  Hopefully they&#8217;ll be flying the F-22&#8217;s again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A sound \/ feeling very much like &#8220;grrrrRRRPOW&#8221; in my mouth last night woke me from a solid sleep.
