Sleep tonight? Seems unlikely...

Tonight we're working on prob-stat and the play for Spanish... and mathworld is super-useful for the former... and one of the most important things I've found on there is ... the dreaded Frivolous Theorem of Arithmetic!!
Life is good, deep down inside. I do this because I choose to do this. There's no great need or moral imperative... I just have arranged things such that, if I'm going to get both of these things done on time, I can't really sleep tonight, and I've made the judgement call that I'd rather get them done. So there! You know, I used to be a lot better at the whole all-nighter thing... just haven't had the occasion to do this, this semester...
... and I went and lifted with Chris V, earlier, and he's pretty well strong, and just generally good company. He's got a tendency to discuss philosophy and AI and whatnot -- we were mulling over the problem of "what is humanity/sentience/will?"... which comes down to the whole Determinism Question, normally. Chris gets many cool points.
Hrm. Back to probstat.
