happy new year!

It's Frobuary 1, YOMHC 0x31!

Got a bare-metal buzz today (mohawk buzz, that is, of course) and went in to work, only to find that there was an "all hands" meeting in which i was being awarded an award. i came to the meeting at the emailed request of my manager and got to stand in front of the company with my freshly cut mohawk and neatly braided beard, to receive a gift certificate from a high level manager who had absolutely no idea who i am.
