Wondering down the hall, trying to clear my head of the fugly code I’m rewriting at the moment, I happened to enter the library. Behold the treasures I found:
– One copy of Rochkind’s Advanced Unix Programming.
– One copy of Kernighan’s and Pike’s The Unix Programming Environment.
– One copy of the IBM Systems Journal issue on Storage Systems.
First, a package was waiting at the post office: Joe Haldeman’s Forever Free, courtesy of shapirac and omerm. Then, I stopped for a hitchhiker on the way to work and during the ride she flirted with me. Amusing.
The last part of my morning workout (based on The Hacker’s Diet) is running in place. Running in place is boring. Today I went out jogging in the neighborhood instead, for the first time. I’ve been terrified of doing this and seeing just how much out of shape I am. I survived, and *I* *want* *more*!
