(08:10:43) school run done.. mind drifting on the way home.. I wonder how fast sound travels through brick. Probably about 0.25s for a 3 storey house..
(08:29:01) is off swimming.. looking forward to doing a few lengths.. thing is, I don't know when to stop.. I hope to be able to walk afterwards.
(09:43:50) 20 lengths done; I'm still (just about) alive.. only 500m, but one underwater, so I'm quite smug & pleased. Now.. Shopping/coffee. Shoffee.
(12:42:11) is back from St Albans... mildly disappointing. I shall compensate with a trip to the tidy tip. Yay for stuff-get-rid-of-age.
(12:43:04) is aware, though, that St Albans has - hands down - the cutest traffic warden in the world. She was gorgeous. Does not compute.
(15:46:02) is most perturbed that the i600 (and other Windows smartphones) don't do java. I mean.. this is SUCH a bodge.. http://snipr.com/nojava
(19:07:11) is in the studio, but not really getting much done. Again. I need something to stop me from being distracted. Pull that network cable out?..
(07:46:52) likes the idea of Stickam as a window to the wider world. Or at least a way of keeping an eye on my mate's car.. http://is.gd/i6F
(20:46:52) has, in tracky bottom pocket: an i600 quick start guide, a small crosspoint screwdriver, a small paintbrush, 5p, a marble and 2 screws.
(21:16:52) can has teh cheaps ezeebus tickets.
(11:48:21) has an antidote to the stinky smoke coming through the window from next door. COFFEE GRIND YUM! And closing the window. Not ideal, but hey..
(12:06:22) still enjoys a game of hide and seek, although it seems the police are getting better at playing. I think helicopters is cheating, though.
(15:19:12) thinks that the game of 'run in circles trying to kick each other's bottom' should be adopted by Gladiators. Bishop Brennan, READY?!
(18:50:12) has concluded: Doctor Who plus a ten-year-old Jura malt = utterly blissful entertainment.. despite the wasps.
(09:00:02) UPDATE! UPDATE! The broken light above my desk has now been removed. http://snipr.com/litegone How exciting? Yeah, I know.. not very.
(09:01:15) is ordering serial cards and mammary.. I mean memory. Look what you've done, Pete Cooper. :p
(09:03:42) is no good at this new technology. I clearly meant @petecooper. I'm still on web0.6a (running Netscape Navigator 2)
(16:56:49) has just seen an iPod touch. Which is LUFF. However what it can do is even more impressive: http://www.skyhookwireless.com/whoweare/faq.php
(09:22:11) has declared today: "Get a light fixed Thursday". Not the most creative of themes, but better than "fill in pointless forms Thursday."
(15:53:27) is listening to two engineers talking and talking and talking and talking. I need coffee and to go home.
(19:55:52) is doing that proper Thursday thing. Home-> Geekery-> Heroes-> Bed. Goodnight, interweb world (tempting though it is to stay, @ ...
(19:57:45) Darn those html metacharacters. Still, you'll never know, now. Nor, indeed, will I.
(10:33:05) is having a Bank Holiday today; an attempt to counter work-based stress by diong things people don't really understand.Seems to be working..
(08:36:38) must make every effort not to squander today. Caffeine, focus.. the studio's tidy enough to make some music. Yeah.. I work like that. Odd.
(08:48:39) still gets caught out by the Blue Screen Of Death screensaver on my laptop. Does anyone have that really cool Leitch clock LED screensaver?
(14:01:27) is off to collect the children from school. Amount of music recorded:0. I think I might be stressed. June will be caffeine-free month again.
(17:19:45) is helping out with the cubs.. This may well do my head in, but it's a good opportunity for father-son bonding. All teh outside now.
(07:14:00) was up early this morning.. expectant to see if half of R1's storage was entirely dead. Fortunately it survived some misplaced cables. Phew.
(08:04:58) is rationalising podcast subscriptions for use with HubDog (http://hubdog.com) .. three categories: favourites / the rest / dumper.
(10:30:49) has just seen Chris ride his bike for the first time.. one of those 'proud parent' moments. Now, off to Aldi for some hot SCART action(?!)
(14:38:10) wonders where the solar powered radio is.. it's that kind of gentle-neighbour-annoymencing weather. And I'm in that kind of mood, too. Top.
(16:23:18) is preparing frankfurter hotdogs and salad buffet after an afternoon in the garden. Only one minor casualty.. but the boy's gotta learn :D
(19:13:24) is having one more go at getting Hubdog to download a reasonable selection of podcasts. Then, tidying and putting things in boxes. And cake.
(19:49:54) The Onion Radio News; The Colonel ep 51; The Official Heroes Podcast & Topical Pish. On the iPaq (stoopid Hubdog!) and ready to go. Oh yeah!
(10:43:20) The first part of One Big System Failover is complete.. now if I can get this server suite back up by hometime tonight.. WIN!
(11:31:40) is giong to have to reboot. All I wanted to do was open a Word document and now the task bar thing is frozen. I blame.. er.. IT.
(16:51:20) does NOT want to stay any later than necessary. But that I've not heard from the engineers ten minutes before home time is worrying. Hmmm..
(18:18:13) isn't really comfortable with the database that's just come up. This may take a while..
(18:41:06) is really starting to get a bit grumpy about virgin media's continual POP3 failures.. should I move entirely to googlemail? Alternatives?
(18:43:02) is on the phone, and just doodled a snail going "RAR!" I have very poor drawing abilities. None of this moleskine business for me, then.
(18:52:21) likes the Frenc word "donc". It always stands out when I overhear conversations. The word "thus" is an underappreciated word, I feel. Thus.
(19:16:22) has now sold his email soul to Google, and is off home.. up the M1 before the Germans call back. This database won't fix itself, y'know...
(20:38:55) is home again, but still has work to do. And Doctor Who to watch. It may be inadvisable to do both concurrently, but hey... it's only TV.
