Diary: April 2002

Nothing much

Nothing much, just felt like posting a diary entry.

Watched a few films today and yesterday, including '2001', 'A Clockwork Orange' and 'The Whistle Blower' (last one's only £5 from play.com... hmm, they should be paying me, what with me keeping them in the black and advertising for free to boot). All quite good.

There was a good story linked from slashdot basically about how Mr Lucas of Star Wars fame is an unimaginative literary theiving bastard (no offence intended, frequent reader George), and how he should give credit where it's due, with the authors of stories ...

Me again...

Went to the pub with Chris. Had a little difficulty parking in the spaces at the side of the road... first I tried driving into one, just about got it straight, but I was about 4 feet away from the pavement. Then I parked in a drive-straight-in space, but decided to move because it had those 'don't park here' lines all over it. I then tried reverse parking in a similar space to the first one, and ended up about 4 feet on the pavement. In the end, I got out and went to the pub... *shrug* at least ...

Also went to Tonbridge to deliver some bounced emails (someone forgot to pay for the .org address ...

OOOMG

Heh. So drunk.

Haven't been this drunk since, oooh, the weekend before the new year (failing that, the summer holiday). Honestly it is a wonder that i'm managing to type (although it did take me 15 minutes to get this far without any spelling mistakes ;) )

And with that, I'm off to drink a bottle or two of volvic so I don't feel too bad in the morning... good night,,,,

Back at uni

I'm back at uni, nearing the end of the first full day, everything's back to normal.

But due to my dad's very bad job of packing them into the boot, my two desktop uni machines, Mir and Okama, are now scratched. Okama's case is a Lian Li PC60 (big shiny aluminium thing), that has a few small scratchey dents on the front right corner, not too bad. However, Mir (the tiny machine in the Shuttle SV24 case) was sitting right next to the bottom of Okama, and the way my Dad drives... well, one side is ...
