So far, so good. Due in no small part to the overwhelming generosity of my professor, I’m getting a B+ in studio. That’s a load off my mind, thank the Lord… If only I knew what was going on with me this summer. My portfolio must be assembled to at least a rudimentary degree; I’m determined. Then I can start hawking it ’round…<\/p>\n
I finally discovered what was going wrong with my monitor. Turns out overheating was causing it to flicker on and off annoyingly. I turned the fan on it and it was stable for as long as I needed it for; previously it had begun to flicker after an hour or so, quite disconcerting. I’m conjecturing that dust accumulation inside the plastic shell is hampering its cooling efficiency. I’ll clean it out this summer.<\/p>\n
It’s turning into a full-fledged addiction. I’m beginning to think I’m well-nigh obsessed. Yesterday, walking out to my car (Twinkie) in the parking lot, I had this insane urge to pop the hood, get a couple of floodlights, and tear down half of the engine. For no good reason. I think I’m just unstable when it comes to mechanical issues. In more positive news, one of our cars is well on its way to being restored to operational status after suffering a warped head (serious condition requiring a pretty thorough overhaul). Called the friendly folks at Carquest today ordered the parts I need. The car should be back on the road in a few weeks or so… We’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
