Wow, finally Christmas. I still have yet to sleep, as we just got back from a lovely and fun do at Jay and Deb’s. Hung with the boys, scared away Jay’s relatives, and heard more prison stories from Illiad. It was quite fun, with lots of food, drink and a rousing game or 3 of […]

Yup, saw Lord of the Rings tonight. My micro-review: go see it. If you haven’t read the books before, then read the first one, or listen to the audiobook, and then go see it. Actually, just go see it. Works been good I guess, bugs keep on getting squashed, but all the new stuff that’s

What a middle of the road couple of days, sadly moving more onto the “blah” side. Starting with an E2 meet (my first) in vancouver friday night. It was ok I guess, decent people, who were friendly enough to the new ones among them. Still, I was reminded that I’m shy and don’t react all

Well, thus ends a decent week. Work has gone well, and lots of bugs have been squashed. I’m also almost done the second Harry Potter book on mp3’d audiobook, and as soon as it’s done I shall start on Lord of the Rings, to try to finish the re-“read” it before the movie opens in

Yay! I’m another year old…. weee…… (belated). Boo! Nothing on TV again today! Yay! Fixed windows problems! Boo! Have to go shopping! Yay! Got a new kitten! Boo! Marketing dude thought taking pics of the CEO doing important things was more important than me taking pictures of the kitten, so I didn’t get works digital

I was Luke Skywalker. I was also a kernel hacker, trying to do what I’m trying to do in Real Life. My dream took place over a fairly long period of time. It started when I was young, and had pranksters doing things to my home in suburbia. As I got older, I became aware

I’m still on yesturday’s time to be honest. I spent most of the day Sunday and Saturday night after coming back from diving reconstructing the ufies.org box. I put a new drive in (thanks Fred!) and it went perfectly, and then while copying data to / from the old drive (backing up 4G of /home)

Long, long last couple of days. Bunch of crap I’ve been coding I finally fixed, only to find another blocker (and not a “why the heck is this not working” blocker but a “this isn’t going to work” blocker) standing in my way. Out of the frying pan and into the fire. As I’ve said

Well, saturday we all went diving. We went over to some place just below Whytecliff park which had a sandy, sloooooowly sloping out bay bottom. We went down to about 40 feet or so but there wasn’t much there. Saw some large sea anenomies (sp?) and a midish-sized ling cod. Our second and third dives
