Definitely not walking in Memphis
What happened to my Wednesday update? It got shuffled off in the middle of my attempts to learn about elusive merchandising. And I was really lazy on Thursday.

Well. Being in central/near south/near west Austin is a lot like Oak Park combined with Chicago's own Clark and Belmont. The upper class artists, the aging hippies, the punks... it's pretty similar.

I can be really superficial. It's easy for me to think "get a life, geek" to someone I don't know. But I know that straw man arguments haven't done me any good. So I try to be equal: when I got tired of the liberal nerds around Austin, I tried to remind myself of the conservative nerds near home.

So that being said, my next question is "How will I use time this weekend so that it doesn't seem like the same old semi-interesting drudgery?" Following that question is "Isn't it time to make some plans for December?" The answers to both are pretty vague right now. So I will do my best to set aside time for thinking. That way, I won't waste time or rush into anything foolish.
