So we've got two Asian teams in the Super Eights. Goodie. It'll be interesting to see how the others react to Australia and South Africa ... we'll find out soon enough, Bangladesh's first match is against the Aussies!
Having an aircon is nice, especially now that mine has gotten all the bad smell out of its inside. Pity it doesn't turn off, though.
Suddenly struck me today in conversations with Ifti (not Ifty, mind) that I could go batshit crazy with my one-time Lego obsession, now that I had the financial capability to do something about it, etc. A bit of Googling revealed these guys, who also have a very healthy set of train legos! On the downside, Lego trains have many restrictions, but it's probably a lot more fun than, say, buying and setting up a "proper" system.
It's expensive enough that it's not an impulse buy, but I will keep it in mind next time I'm bored!

As you probably know, Bangladesh handed us our rear ends (I'd link to a page, but I can't find any that looks like it'll be around for a while). Still, no complaints: it was one heck of a match, with Bangladesh playing amazingly well throughout, batting, bowling and fielding. An extremely well deserved victory, in any case.
Don't like sleeping this late, but vaguely optimistic for tomorrow. Why? No particular reason. I was at lab for five hours today, but it really reminded me of why lab was such a fun place to work: everybody somewhat relaxed (atleast on weekends), Prof in a decent mood, work getting done, but everybody atleast trying to have fun doing it, too. For me: a variety of machines to play around with (I was using NetBeans on MacOSX "Tiger"), the ability to show everybody a funny video Ifty'd passed on to me earlier, and to just do-my-own-thing - atleast, somewhat - so, yeah, atleast a half decent day. The kind of day you can take after the kind of day day before yesterday was, and say, yeah, okay, it'll be crap, but it won't be completely crap. Or, at any rate, it shouldn't.

"A beach house," he said, "doesn't even have to be on the beach. Though the best ones are. We all like to congregate," he went on, "at boundary conditions". "Really?" said Arthur. "Where land meets water. Where earth meets air. Where body meets mind. Where space meets time. We like to be on one side, and look at the other."
