The Pain! The Pain!






It looks like I have trigeminal neuralgia. That seems the most logical explanation for a bout of right-side-of-the-face pain.



It had been disguising itself as dental pain for many months. Then one evening it attacked! Ibuprophen alone could not win against this rogue nerve.


So my doc gave me some Tylenol laced with codeine. Now I know why I so enjoyed having a cold when I was a kid: it wasn't the missing of school that so delighted me; it was the codeine.

Feeling Young?

For those of you who still feel young, I suggest checking out this site, which describes the mindset of the incoming class of college freshmen.

If that doesn't work, check out this site, and see if you remember wearing any of these outfits.

Then, if that doesn't work, check out this site, and see if you ever thought your future would turn out this way.

How Long Will I Last?

Tonight was the first night of my Intro to animation with Maya class. Some time in the second hour I got totally lost. Then in the lab following class I got partially caught up.
Our teacher says we must spend 10-15 hours per week on the classwork to get anything useful out of the course. I don't know if I can put in that much, but, (owing to my many years of Harvard service) the class is free for me, so if I have to drop, it's no skin off my wallet.
