ok. so you will be pleased to know i am writing this from my room. where i have finially gained enough knowledge (or got lucky enough which may be more the case) to get my wireless working. and without ndiswrapper to boot!! pure bcm43xx baby!! I havnt tryed gaming yet, im hoping it is stable and for now it seems well enough.

secondly, which is almost first. i have not heard back from my latest job application. which is ok, since i only sent it in on saturday. very excited.

and last, which could be first also. an amusing story from sunday.

us: lets goto the beach

us: OK!

<we goto beach and swim etc>

us: we have swim for ages, lets get out now.

us: OK!

<we head to shore and walk to clothes/towel pile>

ed: oh by the way i covered our stuff in sand so it didnt get wet if it happened to rain.

oh gosh its been a while

having moved house and getting the internets back. its good to be established again. although still job less. which is proving to be quite restful, i still really want to just write code all day. so that my plan today. im going to attempt to launch into a project that could be available to me. im sure there was a list of things i was going to talk about, but as of right now, i really cannot remember. perhaps its because we have no milk.

how boring.

ill post a picture of some food aswell. maby this will brighten up the post.

satay tofu with caramelized carrots and lightly cooked courgette. yum!!

satay tofu etc

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!!

pumpkins. plain awesome.

February 7, 2008

just bought pumpkins tickets. special pre-sale is awesome. but it is also sad. i was totally looking forward to camping out all night outside real groovy. would be heaps of fun, taking a couch down. maby pitching a tent. i bet the hookers hate it when tickets for big gigs go on sale. all corners though are fair game i say! they cant hog it all the time.
