A good day

Well, it's been a great day actually. Enjoying my room in the new digs, soaking up the sunshine from my couch. Lunar eclipse tomorrow night, I'm hoping we can make an evening of it.

So, let's get down to business. If anyone needs any help using the software package XMDS to simulate or solve complex stochastic differential equations, then I'm your man. I've got it all working, here at home on my laptop (on the couch).

Getting a picture is the shit for theoretical scientific research in physics. You gotta get a pic, and then interpret it. Then you write a paper, and a PhD, and then it's applauses and champagne all round. For the super eager, you can change a few parameters, run the solution a few times, get to know the equation, right? And that's what I spent today doing. Working out the solution. Playing with my equation. Und eet's bin sooo much fun!

Here's a sample of science in action. See if you can guess what's going on...
That's right kids, it's decreasing. If you go from left-to-right, of course. If you go from right-to-left, then it's increasing, but then you just change the units so that it's decreasing in the other direction.
Ahh, science at it's best.

Aside from that, an important part of my life is leaving soon. Kinda like spring. You have it briefly for a few months, revel in it, enjoying your time, taking it for granted. Then, all of a sudden, it's gone. And it's the blazing hot summer sun beating down on your brow, reminding you that nothing ever stays the same.

I'm going to miss spring. And sometimes you think it's the best season to have.

Yet the rest of the year is usually pretty good too. And it has other benefits. So I'll try and enjoy those. Maybe hit the pool on occasion. Did it last Sunday. Total length swum this year : 500m.
