Beer in the afternoon

Well, don't I feel accomplished. Got the dread letter out. Got Latex working on the ol' machine (2 kinds--Lyx and something else)...printed envelopes---that's something.

Now, if only I'd work on my homework. We'll see.

latex and misery

and i don't mean the kind you wear. or sit on and it sticks to your legs as you try to climb out of your k-car.

i mean the software package based on donald knuth's tex.

yes, this one is going to be boring and geeky.

and i'm having trouble with it.

you wouldn't believe the junk you get whenever you prepend your google search with ``easy''.

And people wonder why more people don't use linux and latex.

pleasantly buzzed, latexing

well, i don't mean the plastic kind, if that's right.

i mean document processing. how boring. but if you don't latex, you should.

it's fun.

so, got a call from the rep. no grievance needed. just a letter via certified mail.

well, here goes. fewer words, the better.

so i'll be concise. as opposed to here.
