Newness - in and out of the box

Current Music: Phantom of the Opera Soundtrack
Current Mood: Varying by the hour
Current Mood: Varying by the hour
In the Box:
I bought a projector (Hitachi CP-RS55), it's an SVGA 800x600 resolution LCD projector. It is pretty dang sweet. So now we watch movies on the wall (fills the entire wall pretty much) with the surround sound. It's pretty dang impressive. Phantom of the Opera was amazing last night. Such a great movie to watch with a projector and surround sound, it puts you right in the theater.
Out of the Box:
I started my new job a couple weeks ago (don't know if I mentioned it). And I even learned a little MatLab already. I've adjusted one of the simulations I was given to play with so that the UAV dynamically switches between searching for low points to searching for high points. In this way it wanders around the map to locations that lost subjects are likely to be (in some cases). It has been pretty interesting so far. The guys in the lab are all good, and it's been fun.
Other things not box related:
I have re-affirmed my position that girls are complicated and cause much difficulty. This has put me in a bit of a funk recently (remedied last night by watching Phantom of the Opera). This is why my mood is listed as varying by the hour, because it has been... grumble...
