well so i've looked at the dent again, and it isn't horribly large. of course i can't get in touch with the stupid guy, so we'll see how that turns out. not that that's the good news.

i went out with marcus and jean and starch-free (duhh) mike to the whitehouse bar in fishkill and then mulligans. (i keep wondering if hanging out at the pro IRA bar will somehow screw up my security clearance if i ever need it... anyway) marcus tried the prawn potato chips. he said they were scary.

oh, so good news. aparently jean's uncle works for some company doing something or other in utah fairly high up, as well as having contacts in lithotripsy (breaking kidney stones with shock waves) and other various bme things. so i get to see if jean can introduce me successfully... yay.

not much else exciting to report, i need to touch up the driveway cleaning, since its a bit icy in spots, and its late, so i should go to bed, not like i need to wakeup before noon for anything, but as there's 2 minutes of daylight these days, its a bit more fun if i see some of it. seasonal affective disorder or whatever that's called should be avoided when possible. just like lice.
