When ordinary people get their wisdom teeth removed, they take codeine
to releive the pain and end up semi-addicted.  I got a freeware circuit
simulator to take my mind off my troubles while recovering, and got
addicted to that instead.  This is true: I find myself staying up to
unhealthy hours and putting other important activities aside to try
just one more transient analysis.
 
This morning when I looked in the mirror I noticed that the whites of
my eyes were starting to turn blue.  There's a weird taste in my mouth
all the time now - vaguely like cinnamon - and I can't tell anymore if
this is this millenium or the next one.  I have weird dreams, too.
 
I was hanging around the bar where the engineering students go and I
picked up a girl I thought shared my obsession.  She asked if I wanted
to be her lover - but it turned out all she really really wanted was to
zigga zigga.
