My cool word of the moment is circumflex. I saw it in the book lex & yacc, just skimmed through. It’s what this symbol is called: ^. It’s also known as a caret or a hat. Hat is the term I’m used to using, from physics. But “circumflex” definitely sounds cooler.

It’s the beginning of my 2nd week at JPL and I actually finished my lunch today, for the first time. Previously I’d always only manage to eat half of it. Today’s lunch was both delicious and relatively small. I got an Avocado Burger without fries. Two beef patties and slices of cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickels, and the best part: lots of slices of avocado. Really good stuff. There was probably a little sauce in there somewhere too. The bread was that greasy pseudofried bread, quite tasty, especially when fresh. $4.50. My lunches here are usually about $5. And I buy a lunch here every day.
My knees were hurting quite a bit last Friday. I wonder why.
