This is not democracy.

Off to Vancouver,
EARLY tomorrow morning (7:00 ferry) for the AME Roundup tradeshow.
Pretty much the next two days will be spent sucking up to mineral exploration reps and hoping to get a summer job.
There are no words to describe how nervous I am.
Here’s hoping it goes well!

Finally made the switch over to Google Chrome.
It really doesn’t seem a whole lot quicker…
And I’ll have to switch back to Firefox in order to download songs off of Tumblr, as there is no Chrome equivalent of DownloadHelper.
It’s also kind of funny, because the reason I switched to Chrome was because I was sick of not having the Google Toolbar (not available for the newest version of Firefox). And now I find out that...

A few things:
Doctor Who is awesome!
… but I’m not so sure about Glee.
… Although I learned exactly how and when I DON’T want to propose to someone

Today is the day we find out how well we can survive without Wikipedia.

Let me tell you.
Everything sounds amazing when your laptop is hooked up to Bose speakers.
Comparing the Immigrant Song (Karen O, Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, from TGWTDT) played through my laptop speakers vs. these new speakers… there is no comparison.

Clearly the World Juniors game is going to sound fantastic too - when we CRUSH Russia!
