I meant to write something yesterday about not getting laid off. It was the rumored date. Next date is targeted for end of next week. but I managed to get some work done which is nice.

Had a long talk with my roommate about the 4th dimension and potentiality. Drove him to drinking (which isn’t really all that hard).
