Saturday in the park!

Yesterday in the robotics lab, we got the turret to move according to where the camera was pointing and the shooter design worked, sort of, so we celebrated by kicking and hitting a mostly deflated soccer ball around for about an hour.

Then Sammy and I met at Back Bay station and we walked to a restaurant to spend the gift certificate he got from Mom. Our waiter was in training (after he told us that, Sammy and I both looked at each other and said, "great"). Then a family with a baby came and sat near us, and Sammy and I looked at each other and said, "great" when we noticed the baby. Then we ate tons and tons of food!

After dinner, we spent a lot of time in Barnes & Noble and then we went home and watched Remember the Titans because Rachael had it on. I hadn't seen it before; I had thought it was just a generic football movie. All I had seen of it before is the trailer where they were all singing "Ain't No Mountain High Enough" together.

Then I played World of Warcraft and my normal server was full, so I went to an RP server, hoping to hear some crazy talking, but nobody was doing anything cool. I did make a druid and named it Artoo, because I used to think that druids and droids were the same thing. No one got my little joke, but I laughed anyway.

Down the hall, there was a big meeting that left free sandwiches for everyone. While I was loading my plate, a woman was standing there talking about how much bacteria there must be on these sandwiches. I guess she was hinting that I should not be eating the sandwiches, but she wasn't directly talking to me. Besides, the sandwiches were probably not sitting out very long. If I start feeling sick, I won't go running to her.

Back from Wisconsin!

Wellll, I'm back from my trip to Wisconsin, which was a truly magnificent time! And then I start my job and robotics! Click on the picture below to see more pictures!
