These are pretty excellent: jewelry made from diodes and capacitors and such! Electronics really do look cool. :) Too bad some of them are really pricey.

Earlier, there was a large construction vehicle tearing up pieces of the road outside of the building I work at, and it was a pretty unusual sight.

Blegh. I still have much unpacking and neatnik-ish organizing to do. Everyone has been awesome and helpful lately, though, so it could be a whole lot worse. :)
