A momentous event occurred today (well, technically it was yesterday, but I'm still awake so I'll continue to refer to yesterday as today until the end of the post). Anyway, back to the momentous event: I ripped all of my CDs into MP3s. My second hard drive, which is devoted almost entirely to MP3s went from 5GB of free space to 3GB of free space over the course of the day. This means my MP3 listening ability has more than doubled. The sad thing is that michael tells me my speakers (which are built in to my monitor) are inadequate for listening to music. In keeping with that assessment, he instructed me to purchase speakers for my computer. Since I am not capable of independent thought, tomorrow (today) I will go shopping for computer speakers, assuming that I have time before W.I.L.D. If you feel sorry for my lack of adequate speakers, feel free to send me some money via paypal (use dgw1@cec.wustl.edu as the email address). To get the ball rolling, I paypaled $1 to myself. I'm eagerly waiting for your contribution to my speaker fund.
In other news, I got my braces off today (I, of course, mean yesterday). The whole process took in excess of two hours and was most unpleasant. michael suggested that I post a picture of my braceless teeth. In keeping with my lack of independent thought, I offer you this.
PS -- I am very tired, having slept about 10 hours the past two nights, and will not be proofreading this post. Send all mistakes to david@negative273.com. Really, the only reason I'm posting is because michael has been telling me to do so all day. See above for the reason why I must post when I am told to do so.
