I’m super bored… how are you all? It’s raining. Again. I’m sure that my car’s probably full of water again, and I’m just killing time until I can get my ass in gear to get ready for work. At least I’m floor manager today, that means I don’t have to do much unless it gets hellishly busy. I should go find a book to read, I’m recompiling EVERYTHING on my gentoo desktop machine so that hopefully some of the weirdness will go away.
[Read More]Ok, so my Uncle is quite a good photographer, has come out with some amazing shots at times, and is sick of building boats and navigating them all over the place. So he’s come to the conclusion that opening his own studio to exhibit and sell his photos is the way he’ll go in the future, and that’s happening on the first weekend in February. This is a seriously cool thing to me, and I, along with my parents are going to go down to Culburra - an aparrently sleepy little town on the coast near Nowra in New South Wales.
[Read More]I can’t work out why it’s not compiling - there’s no posts anywhere online that I can find that tell me how to fix it… how am I cross compiling?

Well, it’s officially too damn hot, and today marks the start of the new dress policy at work. I guess we’ll see how it all goes. I’m sure the operations manager at work’s going to avoid the place like the plague, since it’s going to start a few fights over interpretations of the new rules and what’s right/wrong.
Personally, they can go f*#k themselves. I don’t mind buying new clothes, but telling us the week before christmas that we have to have all new work clothes by the fourth of January is just moronic. I’m going to keep wearing what I’ve been wearing (sometimes fitting in the policy, sometimes not) until I can afford to change.
[Read More]I think I worked out why I was having stupid email issues - somehow I’d forgotten that the namehost I was using was pointing to the wrong IP - since I’d been using two different DNS hosting providers because of a problem with one in the past.
Yay for random posts and stupid fixes.
[Read More]Well, that was fun - not that you’d notice much. The backend’s a lot different, a bit easier to use and so forth. I’m going to have to edit my theme again, and play with a few things, but overall it’s not bad.
[Read More]Ok, so I did a bunch of work on the gem today - wired up a couple of the sensors, worked out what I needed to do to with respect to the others. I ran the preliminary line for the rear fuel pump, and seem to have worked out what I need to do to mount it and so forth. Some of the interior’s back together, making it look a little more respectable.
[Read More]Reading a post on a friend’s LJ about a weird request she got (guess what they asked for?) made this poem pop into my head. Stop it brain! Be normal!
Roses are red,
They are for thee!
Open your mouth,
[Read More]I’m needing to pee!
Ok, I’ve mentioned it before - I’m a member on pureprofile.com - a market research site where you go and answer questionnaires every so often and they’ll credit your account, or do stuff for you. I’ve been a member for quite a while, and have built up a not-too-bad balance which I might draw out sometime soon.
Recently I was offered to receive “a new product from a soft drink company” and of course, free stuff, why not? So I filled in my details, telling them where to send it, not expecting for it to happen. But it did! Today I received a big black package in the mail, and opening it I found a carton of a new product by Coca-Cola Amatil, “Coke Zero.” Twenty-four 390ml bottles, just for me. Ooh, and I got one of those weird rubber wristband things that says “the zero movement”. Here’s some photos (and one of the PimpMobile post-doofage).
[Read More]Here’s the photos that Mitchell took on the weekend we went to Positronic 2005. I love the action shot (below) when he took a photo past me in the drivers seat and somehow got a passing car 🙂
