I need a Tivo for radio

Last night after lying in bed for an hour and a half not being able to fall asleep, I turned on the radio. It was 3am, just in time for a program on WERS called "Psychedelic Mischief". The playlist was all '60s and early '70s psychedelia, some underground (but well-known today in the right circles) stuff like Gandalf, KaK, The Third Bardo, and some mainstream stuff like Jethro Tull, Blind Faith, Cream. I turned it off after an hour because otherwise I'd have been up all night. How come these programs are never on when I'm in the car scanning the dial for good music?

Welcome to the working week

Gensym has finally officially made me an offer, and I have finally officially accepted. Well, I sent email saying I accept. I still have to deliver the signed offer letter and NDA. But, basically, I have a job. Huzzah!

I start on Monday, January 24th. There's still the matter of finishing my dissertation revisions and preparing for the defense presentation, but I'm pretty sure I can do that on evenings and weekends. (The defense is tentatively scheduled for mid-February, but I'll keep you all posted. Although really I'd be more comfortable if nobody showed up so I could talk to an empty room.) I'm thinking that having a job will be less distracting than worrying about getting a job, but we'll see.
