No brain age today.  I feel that if I took the test right now, it would either reg­is­ter zero or 99 or infin­ity or some other out-of-bounds value.  Two beers, two cof­fees, live music with Eric from Vagabond and the girl with the it-doesn’t-look-nearly-big-enough-to-be-a-bass elec­tric standup bass, the cool gothic/industrial/burningman guy from two East:Meets:Wests ago that ran around danc­ing with gog­gles, grease, and no shirt (he was fully-clothed, not danc­ing, and full of intel­li­gent and funny con­ver­sa­tion last night, though.) This morn­ing, too tired and full of hurty — that sort of mus­cle fatigue in the extrem­i­ties that you don’t get until you’re no longer 25-and-invincible and you haven’t had enough sleep.  I don’t think my brain will work prop­erly until later in the day.

Did any­one else notice that in the famous Magritte paint­ing of the guy with an apple obscur­ing his face (Son of Man), he’s actu­ally sort of peer­ing at you from around the side of the apple?  I had heard some­thing about that a cou­ple of months ago, but got around to inves­ti­gat­ing it today.  It’s sort of creepy.

Yes­ter­day, I went to have lunch by myself and brought along the Nin­tendo DS to kill a few min­utes while wait­ing for food, check, etc.  After plac­ing my order, I loaded up Ani­mal Cross­ing.  The wait­ress stopped by and was amazed by the size of the DS Lite com­pared to her orig­i­nal DS.  When she saw what game I was play­ing, she sat down and we geeked out for a few min­utes.  I now have a few more Ani­mal Cross­ing tips.  Later, one of the bus­boys stopped to check out the DS, too.
