when i can't speak...

i made some headway with the c++ project this morning, then went to the beach for some great frisbee. the beach was packed, the weather was hot and clear.

when i got back home i immediately turned on the a/c (which is happening frequently enough that it's being contracted), showered and turned in for a nap. crazy dreams, i'm not sure how much they were influenced by having really dark full-on trance in the background.

i've been broody the whole day, and i'm inclined to think it's largely based on yesterday's discussion with ru55's fiancée: the more i think about it, the more i realize that she's right. the whole master's degree thing comes from a different academic culture where the undergrad is to learn how to learn, but in literature it's way more than that.

the discussion, the arguments and the exposure are a big deal. i return once again to having an issue with doing another full-time degree. it's a different head-space, not a real "problem" as such. in the meanwhile, i'm undecided.

i left on time to get to einav jackson cohen's performance (featuring michal geva), but all the shuttles were full and i stood at the stop for almost an hour before the bus came. seriously, locals should receive preference.

so i missed a couple of songs, but what i got to see was great :)
in fact, michal geva performed way better than she did with her own band :P

afterwards, i couldn't decide what to eat and eventually settled on soup. the soup place is closed until winter... so i went to ze sushi. my taekwondo buddy was there - i couldn't think straight and was very glad that i didn't have to place an order. after the soup and some caffeine i could talk again (i didn't mention it, but i've been fuzzy all day) and i had a very pleasant meal.

have i been home for an hour already? i've been online too long.

i am not familiar with apparently inherent functions: merge(x.suck(), y.suck()) with both merge() and suck() undefined compiles perfectly. it's definitely past my bedtime.
