Mixtapes

When I can't sleep I sometimes start making mixtapes. Instead of helping me sleep this inevitably causes me to stay up late experimenting with different song orders and listening to a ton of weird music.

I also do this when I have a bunch of free time. Such as on a long weekend where I've decided not to go into lab for once.

XPlanes

XPlanes is a cool little website that I've spent far too long looking at today.

See all manner of weird, experimental, and downright cool aeromachines here.

I'm pretty bad at this blogging thing

We went out to the wineries yesterday and apparently nature does exist on Long Island. It's not all strip malls, Olive Gardens, and people with small dogs after all. There were farms with vegetable stands and horses and everything.

I forgot my camera.

Also, it turns out that wine grapes taste terrible if you eat them right off the vine. This was news to me.
