Yeah, we're a bunch of pretty stupid trolls, actually...
Dear diary...
today learned lots.
Neighbor helped tie my shoes.
First time feed myself. Must remember: fork in mouth not in eye.
People ask for Zune support. Had no plan, let hammer drop on keyboard. Was delighted - so many beautiful characters appeared on big screen. Decided to make release. Made side note: "what is Zune-thing?"
Tomorrow will make rocket navigation software for NASA. Very complicated. Might need bigger hammer...
