Having spent the holiday weekend primary with Teymour and DJ, I’ve spent most of my days asleep and most of my nights well-fed and watching movies. The Life Aquatic was funny, but a bit too random for my tastes, and thus, I place it below the Royal Tenenbaums. Now that DJ is gone, I’m still on a strict vampire schedule. Somehow I’ll work it so that my sleeping accomodates my day job. We’ll see come 10 tomorrow morning.

As for now, I’m rocking out, loudly and alone, in the Leverett library to Sublime’s Santeria courtesy of my little sib Sarah and her two-CD compilation “CD for Josh.” I woke up this evening around 5pm to dine with her at Bertucci’s and wander the campus before my tutorial at 7pm and her departure to Australia this Saturday.

I’m taking the same tutorial I took last summer with the very same Aaron. He’s an affable fellow, a mathematical string theorist (as opposed to the physical kind), but affable even still. It’s nice to hear about differential geometry. Escpecially since my tutorial paper topic can coincide with my thesis topic.

And that’s why I’m here in the library: to work on notes on Clifford algebras. It’s taking longer than I anticipated to get to spinors proper. Then again, I’m working less than I had anticipated as well. I don’t need to explain direct correlations such as this to you. It’s hard to know whether I need to know the transformer characterisation of the Clifford group or not. But I’m sure I don’t need to explain my confusion to you, either. And that’s why I’ve ended up doing the opposite of math. Nothing spells procrastination like a personal dance party, facebooking, and blogging in the library. Well, one thing. And that’s why I’m meeting Lisa Xu at 12mid for drinks. Well, not to procrastinate, to catch up, of course. She’s just returned from Austin, TX, and she’s brought me stories and souvenirs. Who could turn that done, I ask you, who, indeed?
