A Flatlander's Perspective

I tore a contact this morning. The right one.

Normally, this wouldn't be an issue. However, in my infinite wisdom, I never bothered to get another box of the little vision-giving discs of plastic. In other words, I get to walk around all day today with one good eye. I envy those with proper depth perception right about now.

You know people are excited about the Wii when they almost force me to show it off during class. I brought it today to play (and demonstrate) during lunch; it was as though everyone knew what was in the duffel bag. Then again, that might have something to do with me talking about it all the time. Anyway, I set it up for a few minutes in Patterns, and showed off the tennis game in Wii Sports. Darren played around with Golf for a while, grinning happily despite sucking more at hitting the virtual ball than I do here in the real world.

By the way, if you're wondering what a "Flatlander" is, you should watch Imagining the Tenth Dimension. It's a very interesting explanation of things like time and inter-dimensional travel. An explanation that actually makes a lot of sense.
