Very quick random update, just because I'm in a good mood: my N600 application (for those who don't know INS-speak, it's an application for a Certificate of Citizenship in the U.S.) just got approved, and I should finally have proof of my U.S. citizenship in my hands by the end of August. THREE YEARS to process one little piece of paper. Crazy.
Also, went back to messing around with Python again today, got a basic multi-user chat server working with about 20 lines of code (telnet in, then "quit", "shutdown", or talk to everyone else there). Should be fun fleshing that out a bit; damn, I like that language.
More later when I'm not so busy.
