It's been a cool weekend. Danny is back from California. Christer did come here yesterday after all, long enough to eat pizza at Pagliai's. Aaron is back from CalTech. His parents are so good to us... every time he comes back to town his folks invite all of his friends over for dinner.
And his dad just gave me a free monitor. It's 17", huge by my standards. Simply vast. What a world! I've always designed my webpages so they look good at my piddly 600x800, and now I'm realizing that I really need to redesign brianlenth.net for real people with larger resolutions.
Later this week I should be getting my tax refund, and there are rumors on the internets that it'll be over $900. And tomorrow I'm getting an abnormally large $397.72 paycheck. I'll be eyebrow-raisingly rich in a matter of days. Ice cream's on me!
I'm going to buy a new computer with these funds. My computer-loving friends are very excited about this, probably more so than I. But yeah, it's definitely going to be nice.
In other news: I'd like to do a comics adaptation of John Cheever's short story The Swimmer. I'd LIKE to. This doesn't necessarily mean I'm GOING to. But I have some great ideas for it.
