Eggs = Cornbread
I took a nap after school today. Which turned out to be a terrible mistake. Ask you can see by the time of this blog entry. I also hadn’t eaten really anything after school, so when I was laying in bed trying to sleep, my stomach started to growl. I tried to ignore it, but had a hankering for some corn bread. I had some at the school a couple of days ago, and it was mighty tasty. So I decided to get up and make some. Oh by the way. I was able to make the corn bread because we finally got some eggs in at the store. You’d be surprised at how many recipes require eggs. Anyway… I got up, mixed up the corn bread and threw it in the oven. Set the timer and went to read up on PHP and MYSQL. Sounds fun doesn’t it?? Well that got sidetracked by some television. Until the corn bread was finally finished. I ate three large pieces while watching TV and washed it down with some cold water. Quite satisfying. I was still wide a wake (as I am now) and decided I should just buy the book I was reading on PHP. You see I found a book that allowed you to download the first 4 chapters. So I hopped onto Amazon and searched for the book. They of course had it. Price was about 35 dollars. I started to read the reviews of the book and one of them said that the book was not worth the money. It was very small, had spelling errors, and wasn’t too in-depth. They said for a cheaper price it would have been perfect for beginners, but not in-depth enough for the price listed. So I looked around a little more on Amazon and ended up spending 50 dollars on two books. I am a little worried that this might be categorized under impulse buying late at night, but maybe I’ll learn something from this in the end. After throwing away some money I decided to check out Fark. Always good for a story. This is what prompted the blog entry this early morning. I read this article, which made me feel really sad for the people involved. Apparently some professor had been working on an instrument for 18 years that was put into the unmanned space shuttle that just recently reached Saturn. The shuttle left in 1997 and the instrument was designed to collect data from the wind over there. Well unfortunately the crew that put the instrument onto the shuttle back in 97 forgot to turn it on. So the poor guy that worked on this thing kind of wasted 18 years of his life. 🙁 There’s a little more to the story if you want to read up on it, but can you imagine? He seemed in pretty good spirits about the whole thing, which is good. I can’t imagine the frustration he must be going through. Well I just wanted to pass that story on. I had better get to bed.
