sick

Tonight is National Night Out. I don't think my block is having a block party. I wasn't invited, but that's not why I think there isn't one; I wouldn't be invited under any circumstances. However, they block of the street when they have one, and since my house is in the middle of the block, I can't get home.

Then you politely ask if they'll let you through so you can get home, and they look put out. Excuse me, but I'm the once being inconvenienced here, and you didn't even bother to invite me to your little gathering, bastards.

Instead I'm going to stay inside, watch TV, and work on a sieving algorithm. Yes, I know such things already exist and have been coded and the whole deal, but it's more an exercise to get my brain working again.

Although I am working on an implementation of NIST's Digital Signature Standard. Yes, I'm a paranoid crypto-anarchist. Besides, it's something to do.
