10:24pm: On the Bridge front, the stop panic audio I downloaded really helps and I walked over the Bridge this evening after Tuesday's problems and gave myself a good pep talk which worked well. The only problem ended up being my poor knees, I think it was from walking in my heeled sandals today, which I shouldn't have done. I didn't walk over the ( Read more... )

10:15pm: Postal service that is! After having to wait for like two months for all that other stuff to come (the laptop keyboard, the cheap charger) the official Motorola one was waiting in the mailbox for me when I got back to the apartment this evening! And it works like a charm no more having to fiddle with blu-tack and crap like that. Although I ( Read more... )

10:50pm: Yes indeedy! And I bring screenshots for you all to go...wooooow.

Look at this detail! Plus fireworks that look good in day time? I am amuse.

11:48pm: So Sim City is sometimes running rather slow so I decided to run a few tests on the old laptop look at defragmenting the hard drive stuff like that... except I forgot such a thing takes for-fucking-ever so I haven't been able to play for hours now. Laaaame ( Read more... )

n 10:35pm: Sim City that is! Seriously, that game is just beeeeeautiful! I'm updating this from my tablet and can't bring you any pictures, but the ones online aren't too far from the truth! Even on my more than 5 year old laptop! Good thing I got that high-end graphics card, huh ( Read more... )

Great right?

10:28pm: The job interview this morning...first of all, I screwed up with the buses and ended up been late. Then when I mentioned to the guy intereviewing me how I'd have to take public transport to and from the place I could tell that they didn't think I'd be too reliable. Then, I took the wrong bus and ended up having to take the long route by ( Read more... )

9:45pm: For the interview tomorrow morning, I've got the bus route printed out and I've set my alarm. Afterwards I have to go to Oxfam because the boss is going to a street fair to set up a booth there ( Read more... )

10:49pm: But I don't! Primarily because the car is in bad shape and stuck in the shop and as a result Dad and I weren't able to pick up Mum from the airport. She had to take buses home! Which wouldn't have been so bad, I'm sure, except it started coming down with rain. It's stopped now, but yeah, a bit annoying that.

LOL, I'm watching Family Guy ( Read more... )

11:21pm: Right, not much else to report, I did go with Dad to help him at the mass for Good Friday and I had one of the Hot Cross Buns that Mum bought home - although sadly it was kind of squashed! :O(

I've been playing a lot of Sim City 4 lately, I'm really not too good at it, I'm almost broke again, damnit. I had to take out a loan and ( Read more... )
