life update

February 10, 2008

been busy installing kubuntu on this pc and getting everything working. just apache/php and minior sound driver touch up’s to go (audigy2 zs’s mic >< ). although the success list includes: wine->tf2/cs, amarok->last.fm, perl->(via dbi)mysql and a few other bits and pieces, eclipse, yakuake etc.

hrm.. trying very hard to get it working so i can resume work on various projects.

oh the job front, i applied for two more today, and one on friday. this one looks very exciting and i would be most pleased to get an interview for it.

ahh yes and were also confirmed to begin moving house on thursday. that means were having our flat cooling party here on friday. we have come up with a very exciting game aswell. basically a wheel of fortune type event. long story. hrmm.. i guess this is the place for stories tho eh.

well then. a few months ago at an op shop we picked up about 200 egg cups. and have since then been planning how to use them for the most awesome. something based on a shot night was always the plan. since then it has evolved, mostly in my mind, into this wheel of fortune type event. well setup a bar, with a spinny wheel etc. everyone has to bring one of the drinks from the list. (which we will be making in the comments here) and well try and assign people to particular things, so we dont get double ups.

so this friday. 123a the parade. island bay. much awesome. come prepared. for it is also kinda scary. some people are crasy.

more news as it is created. and since me and sach are at home all days there should be heaps!!

    overall this has been quite fail. we are quite short on things for the wheel. need people to be thinking about this today. were making the chart right now.
    also tell people about it and one ingredient to bring, then list them here so we can check it off.

    ok so the wheel is made. and the grid is almost made too. very exciting. i think it will work out. there is space for if someone brings something random to add. or someone has a good idea. im going to draw up the chart tonight. ok wait, its only 2pm. i might do it this afternoon.
