Once again this is late, for some reason I've had a real spate of role-playing games, or last night, movie watching, that have gone quite a bit past midnight ( Read more... )

This entry is a day late, due to me having just gotten back from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl. The original plan was to see Tomb Raider 2, which only just started here, but that was booked out, so we waited a few hours and caught Pirates instead. I'm not feeling anything lacking in this ( Read more... )

Well, this is going to be another short one, due to disorganization on my part, not much of event happened today.

I've found a weird and annoying quirk in one of my favourite pieces of software, XaraX, where you can define custom units, but if you use those units to set the grid size, the resulting file can no longer be opened. Fortunately it can ( Read more... )

Mmm, I seem to be getting up early half the time, and late the other half. Well, halfway there I suppose.

Thought for the day, don't blame video games for your kids being insane. Grand Theft Auto does not have the ability to turn your kids into nutters, that comes down to rotten parenting. If your kids honestly can't understand that firing off ( Read more... )

Up at 8 AM today, finally feel like I'm making some progress on this get up at sane times thing, though I feel like death warmed up now at ... 11:20 PM.

It's late, I'm tired, so this will be short, so no cut tag. :)

( What did I do with my day? )

Well, one thing is going better ... managed to get up at 9 AM, and was in a state to head out and do stuff before 10, which is a vast improvement over my more normal 2 PM (at the earliest).

( So I'm awake, I probably should actully do something. )

Well, I'm back again, and for the record, learning a new keyboard layout is more irritating than hard, but irritating it is, though I think I'm now at the point where my fingers know where the keys are better than my brain. Now it's a matter of getting up to a words per minute better than 1 ( Read more... )

Mmmm, since I got this account last year I've made 7 entries, which was about twice as many as I thought I'd made, but not really an impressive total ( Read more... )

Well, things are not all that bad really, just about finished the current project at work, which is a good thing, though I'm fairly happy with how it's gone even if I did get dropped into it halfway though when the previous programmer was moved to a different project ( Read more... )
