Hm. What shall I talk about today? (224)

Get to work, feel shite. Ick. Came home after a chat to the boss. I think it had something to do with the milk being off at work but not sure. I had a swig of coffee before seeing that the milk had curdled. So felt really sick.

Did a bit of work from home, but not a huge amount as I was still fee...

I am naughty... (336)

I just did the smelliest fart ever.

Yesterday was uneventful apart from not getting my tooth removed *again*. “We called you” they falsely claimed. Fuckwits. Which is coincidentally what both myself and my boss typed about them simultaneously on MSN as I explained the second cancellation.

Work...

"We used to say 'Oh hell, we’re young' but now we say ‘but life is sad’...and so is love..."

Dan brought Laura over last night without telling me. Not impressed.

My 1GB SD Card arrived yesterday. Means I can carry around 500 CD quality oggs with me 😁 Also my card reader and my CD-Rs did too. The cardreader is quite funky. USB2 and so is fast as fuck when it copies stuff. And having a gig ...

Je voudrais un chat? (325)

Moratorium. Ugh. 1.5 hours of meeting leading to me getting a sore back. Coz I had to stand. Ugh.

More bug fixing. Have the new guy helping so need to sort him out today.

Acquired a test screener of “Team America” to cackle at. Plus the soundtrack 😉

It’s not as subversive as the original S...

US Lawyer madness (195)

Charles Graner, alleged baddest of the bad apples of Abu Ghraib, went on trial Tuesday:

<<The prosecution showed some of the photos taken at Abu Ghraib in their opening argument, including several of naked Iraqi men piled on each other and another of [Lynndie] England holding a crawling naked Ira...

Odd eyeball (369)

Wednesday was strange – I woke up feeling like I’d been punched – my eye was very red and my eyelid was swollen. Went to work, did code library stuff, few bugs, popped out at lunch to buy some lightbulbs and stuff, came back, more code library. Went to Retro for a drink with fruitbat – was li...

woops.... (381)

Whilst upgrading remotely from Core 2 to Core 3 of Fedora (I know, I know, when will I learn not to do stuff like that remotely?) I managed to uninstall hotplug and not reinstall it on the same line.

Crap.

No IRC server until I get home.

Which may be some time as I’m meeting fruitbat f...

Carnivàle is coming to town... (158)

Still sleepy...got quite a bit of the code library done yesterday, including writing a textformatter class – it’s so fucking fast it’s amazing 😁

Did more chunks of Freakcity too – the forums now incorporate the new code and I’ve written a page counter that actually works, as well as cutting down...

I am still knackered – and more than a little bleh at the moment.

Failed to do any work yesterday evening – arguing with Java during the day fried my brain...Made “Tesco Finest” 1/2 pounder and chips for dinner for Dan and I. Burnt the chips. Dan said he wasn’t sure about the burger but the chips w...

Got home to discover Dan had been getting the boys involved in the whol...

"Now life devalues day by day as friends and neighbours turn away"

Yesterday much work was done on the code library – still learning the whole Java thing and had to let Jonny have a look because I broke a bit of it. Jonny’s a senior Java type – so that was fun 😉

The reworking of FreakCity continues unabated – Need to find a better way to do the threads though.

Snigger.... (365)

James C still writes much better diaries than me...

We got a bit stoned and then I gingerly returned to my house where I woke up this morning to discover a notice on the kitchen wall in my handwriting which said, “Possible bad come-down moment. Don’t panic!”

...Cancelled my appointment. “We sent you a letter, didn’t you get it?”

So half day. Cisco’s VPN software has issues with 😜 fast user switching.*giggle*

Got a chunk of codelib done. Yay!

Dan came over. Got him out of debt on paypal. Paypal have now gone down in my estimation a tad.
