Mercy is the mark of a great man. Guess I'm just a good man. Well, I'm all right.

Cute Dana! How does it feel?

Geekiest. Wedding Vows. Ever.

My friend Mako got married recently; he's a hacker and so's his new wife, Mika, and they exchanged vows of mathematical significance: "the numbers of letters in each word in each vow matches consecutive digit in the decimal expansion of a famous mathematical constant." Mika chose Pi, Mako chose Phi. Here's the Pi vow:

Now, I give a total offertory to joyful union.

I'll honor - joyously, endlessly, loyally, devotedly - you.

In the marriage that unites us, paired Yang and Yin, Benjamin and me, forever soulmates, shall complement as partners steadily.

With a doubtless promise, I pledge integrity and stability sincerely. Our rounded rings, a completely noble treasure; it represents continual respect, love, perpetual link with trust, limitless.

My vow: absolutely lasting devotion.

Looks great, Dana! Does your head feel about a million pounds lighter? I remember when I got my waist-length hair chopped off, I couldn't stop tossing my head because it felt so light!

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Dana, it looks great! Shorter than bra strap, sure, but it's a *great* cut and you look fantastic!

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

The new 'do looks great, Dana!

My mom's cat would be foraging in alleys right now if she weren't sickly. She woke me up THREE TIMES last night with pointless yowling or jumping on me unexpectedly. That's in addition to the time Dad woke me up to help him get to the bathroom, and the 3:30 am alarm that Mom forgot to turn off before leaving to attend a wedding.

I predict that the office will be getting something shy of top effeciency from me today.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

How does it feel?

Kind of bouncy. My hair is so light that I don't really notice much in terms of weight, but now it moves more.

Nice 'do, Dana.

(Also, for those asking earlier about F2F's that Dana has been to, she was also present at the LA F2F.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Dana, it looks fantastic! And bouncy!

And New Orleans.
