I have two math (standard and specialist), physics, chemistry, English and IT. All on the highest level frown.gif

I discovered on Monday that while re-assembling my T20 headband after recable, I tightened a screw right onto the wires; chewed the insulation right off.  No short circuits, so that's good.  I sprayed some Plastidip onto the exposed conductors.  About three coats.  It looks like hell.  And by hell I mean s•••.  Just re-assembled this morning.

 

QQ: I've been meaning to find an application for Plastidip in my DIY endeavors.  Looks like I found one. mad.gif

I bombed a physics test and then bombed a calculus test because instead of studying I slept for 13 hours.

But more importantly, at the end of my 13 hour sleep I had a really good dream. In it, I went to a play in a theater with children reenacting the three LotR movies with play swords and stuff. It was cute and lighthearted. My childhood friends and myself as a child were the characters, but I was watching them. The goblins and orcs all had little ears and green costumes and it was awesome. The audience brought blankets and pillows and laid on the ground to watch the show. It's the kind of thing you wouldn't question in a dream, but makes little sense in reality. I sat in the back with my computer on a rolling cart next to me because I was the projectionist for the backdrops.
 
Then, a woman came and threw her blanket down next to mine. Some time passed and she had fallen asleep, which a lot of people had done in the theater due to the lighting being low and it being quite long and peaceful. Her foot touched mine and I suddenly noticed she rolled over and was much nearer to me. She was beautiful. Her arm was around me. I didn't know what to do, but she was asleep, so I watched her for a while and decided to nudge her. She opened her eyes and was a little embarrassed, but I told her to stay. We laid together and watched the play for a while. 
 
She fell asleep again with her head on my chest and then I drifted into sleep as well. It was perfect. I woke up and no one was in the theater but us. She was awake and was looking at me. I put my arms around her and I remember feeling so warm and contented. I just laid there embracing the warmth, till I slept again. 
 
I woke up, yet again, in my dream in a different location without her and some other stuff happened that is typical dream stuff, but that isn't memorable.
 
It was like that 5th grade innocence of holding a girl's hand for the first time. Just extended and more intense. There weren't any sexual thoughts. When I woke up in my bed, I had already slept for an eternity, but I just laid there feeling perfectly happy. 
 
I basically realized that I won't ever have what happened in my dream today, and that was a huge downer. I realize now how alone I truly am. I'd give a lot to go back there.

I should have learnt how to use a camera before going to Comiket.

 

Stupid sky throwing off my stupid metering. This was the best I could do in lightroom (which I also have no idea how to use).

QQ: Big comprehensive cable job, and after all that I realize that while the cable lengths are more than enough for sitting/standing by my rig, I no longer have the ability to walk over and grab something without taking the damn headphones off.  I miss my needlessly long stock cables.

Speaking of cables...

QQ: Used the wrong solder on my first cable and bought the wrong size connector. I guess I'll have to strip the cable (2534) of its first layer of shielding so it fits the jack. Hopefully that won't make the cable so bad it actually sounds horrible.

QQ:  People referring to plugs as jacks.  Especially confusing when they are also referring to jacks in the same post.  Plugs and jacks are termed differently so that we may distinguish them from one another.  Male/female, off/on, white/black, all different enough from their counterpart that you wouldn't use one to describe the other if you knew for sure which one it was.  But apparently jacks and plugs are all jacks.

My Sharp "Micro Component System" stopped outputting sound to the speakers (even tried different ones, headphone out works oddly), so I decided to (hesitantly) shell for some decent active PC monitors, the Swan M200 MKII:

I really didn't want to spend more than $100, but then I saw how terrible the build quality for most the setups in that price range were, besides my previous system lasted for I believe over eight years. Even with high buyer's remorse, a part of me still knows that it's better not to cheap out. My wallet is officially on lockdown now, with all the crap I bought over the holidays.
