Too much IRC, perhaps

It's gotten to the point where I can type "pouncehug" faster than "hello". Possibly this is nature's way of telling me that my "conversations" are all really uselessly shallow anyway.

50 Minutes

I'm listening to a Robots in Disguise album called Disguise. I bought it sort of on a whim. It's rather better than I was expecting. Seems to me that their albums are more fun to listen to than than their singles.

I've been chopping chilli peppers.

I strongly suspect that the next time I go to take a whizz is going to Suck Rocks, Hard.
Christmas was fun, I've eaten enough turkey to stuff another turkey. The oven is now full of badly over|under cooked (don't know which yet, have to see how it comes out) biryani. Spent a few hours today wandering around Cardiff (Kaadiff for those who're too familiar with the accent) attempting to purchase videogames, literature, music and (mild) smut. Only really succeeded on the literature, games and smut - couldn't find anywhere selling most of the music I was looking for. I bought a copy of Pratchett's Making Money and spent about half of the (short) train journey back home giggling enough to worry everyone else in the carriage.

Pretty good day.

For the record:

The cutest thing in the universe wasn't all that difficult to find, actually.

Awesome on toast.

I just blew about 116 emails into various peoples' accounts - that's 29 apiece, for four people. All because I broke an SSH login and didn't notice quickly enough. Whoooops.

I can has employment! Yay!

Starting Monday, I'm going to be writing a whole pile of scripts for monitoring a company's web and database servers - all FreeBSD boxes at the moment apparently, though it's possible that that might change. Apparently the current issue du jour is the boxes running out of disk space in /var/ on a semi-regular basis as the logfiles grow, plus they want to know about things like whether or not the database tables are growing at roughly the right rate and so on. Should be fun.

Deadlines suck, narrrr

Title says it all, really.
