Print iconHappy new year!

Wednesday, December 31st, 2003

Isn’t she adorable?
Wish you a pleasant, safe, productive and intellectually stimulating new year. I’d say happy too, but that’d […]

Print iconResolutions, and marketing

Tuesday, December 30th, 2003

If you’re wondering what those two halves of the title have in common, don’t bother.
So here I am, back at the uni. It’s been, oddly enough, unodd. Bringing legolas up to […]

Print iconCan’t escape it

Monday, December 29th, 2003

Tech toys I mean. Spent most of the evening getting this Cannon photo printer working. Generally cursing it all along, it being the most unintuitive piece of anything I have ever worked with. But all that went away when the pictures started rolling […]

Print iconJust another year

Monday, December 29th, 2003

Ahh yes, it’s that time of year again. Your brain tells you it’s just a day, but the marketing chaps and the orange terror alert level keep forcing you to attach some grave importance to the dawn of a “new year”. You realize […]

Print iconMe unplugged

Saturday, December 27th, 2003

Shipped my notebook away to be worked on and it’s going to take 2-4 weeks for me to get it back. More importantly, I don’t really care. I think the motherboard is broken and I am not going to have it replaced if […]

Print iconBroken machines, and holiday issues

Thursday, December 25th, 2003

Ok, I think I finally did it. I stopped my laptop from booting up. Now I’m a sad man. After a year of abuse, christmas morn was when it decided it’s just too much to take. I panicked, removed like 27 screws trying […]

Print iconLOTR

Wednesday, December 24th, 2003

Hmm. I just returned from the Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King. Sure, it was expectedly gorgeous, but it was also insanely long and detailed. Tedious almost. It’s 3.5 hours long or some such. It was moving at points, […]

Print iconFinally done

Wednesday, December 24th, 2003

Ok, the term is kinda sorta officially over. There was this rather insignificant incident near a gas station yesterday. As I was walking by, this person filling up his tank goes “So yo, school’s out?”, you know, I would assume rather surprised to […]

Print iconOk, this is too much

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2003

For some reason, this group, the HackER “defacement” TeAM or some such have decided that this is a popular enough site worthy of being cracked. So they did. Some things are broken as I’ve restored them from early back ups. Like the site […]

Print iconwahgnube, the little story teller

Sunday, December 21st, 2003

Except he’s not little, nor tells stories.
No points for guessing whose eyes have been on leaky faucet mode all day. I mean it’s quite insane. Happy carol on TV about hope […]

Print iconI can’t wait for Monday

Sunday, December 21st, 2003

Ahh yes, the evil term hasn’t ended yet. You just freaking know the longer it’s dragged out, the more things that can go wrong, will. But then again, it can’t get too much worse. I mean, with a sort of breakup (no, that […]

Print iconNot again

Friday, December 19th, 2003

There must be something wrong with me. I just saw the movie again. Don’t I realize there is a change the channely button on the remote? Which reminds me, the Hissyfits.
Support […]

Print iconHmm

Friday, December 19th, 2003

Contrary to what I expected, my semester isn’t going to be done until Monday, and I am totally fine with it. And in other news, write one insightful email to a list and get stuff like so.
[…]

Print iconSigh

Friday, December 19th, 2003

Aww fish it’s 3 already.

Print iconWhiney

Thursday, December 18th, 2003

This term is almost done, but there is just so much more to do. Things have piled on and on, and I have not been able to stay focussed on one thing long enough to do it, let alone do a decent job. […]
