Throwing caution to the wind, this afternoon I decided to change my desktop resolution to 1280x1024 (barely readable) and allow Windows XP to use its own cutesy bubbly theme instead of the old one. We'll see how long it lasts. Sorry, that was a dull start to the entry, I'll try again.

I was rather ill yesterday morning - it might have been because of the cheese the previous evening at the ChemSoc cheese and wine (which I was fairly certain at the time was just mould that had been pushed together), or it could have been the way I tried coffee again at breakfast. I'm not sure what it is that my body rejects about everything - alcohol, caffeine, or even carbonated drinks in all but the minutest of doses. That limits my choices somewhat, and with the amount of milk that I drink, I should have the strongest bones in the University.

There's good news, though, and that is that the Junior Honours project won't be as difficult as we all thought. Two days ago we were given the specification asking us to build a humanoid life-size dancing android. At the meeting yesterday, we managed to get the customer's needs down to a little thing on wheels that moves about a bit. That's quite a good jump for one hour.

1280x1024 is already starting to hurt. I'm changing it back.
