My AC finally arrived. Yay! Despite the fact that it’s not particularly hot out anymore, I will now be able to keep my room at a reasonable temperature throughout the year. It’s kind of loud, but I’m sure I’ll get used to that quickly, and I don’t really mind all that much anyway. Thanks to Jason for helping me lug it up the stairs, and Charles for setup.

We started watching the second season of Ghost in the Shell today, and I recently downloaded the entire GITS music collection. I really love the music. It’s Yoko Kanno, who also did the music for Cowboy Bebop.

I don’t have to go to work tomorrow, but I feel a little bad because all of the staff have to be in lab to finish up a grant proposal. The grant is due to MIT on Monday, so hopefully things with my new experiment will get started. If the day works out as I hope, I’ll get to go sailing (with a hat this time, so my poor scalp doesn’t burn more), eat at the East Campus and/or Senior House barbecues, and finally watch the fireworks. I’ve seen the Boston fireworks on TV several times, but I’m excited to finally see them in person.
