3:35am

I’m going to try going to bed again. I don’t think the warmth in this house helps. But then, having four PC’s and a stuff load of peripheral’s plugged in and turned on 24 hours a day helps either.

Dangerous times

Another diary 😉

Ok, I’ve added another diary! This time, for the roleplaying section of the site. Hopefully I’ll keep it up-to-date with ongoing roleplaying activity.

3:15am and I’m still not that sleepy. This is a dangerous time for me, I’m likely to implement random features in NewsMangler, or write entire new websites.

So, it’s 2:30am, and I can’t sleep.

Or rather, I’ve been asleep since 10’ish (very early for me), the small cat woke me up, I’ve been to the loo, and then back to bed.

But I can’t sleep.

My body probably thinks it’s time to get up, 4 hours sleep is roughly what I get anyway. But I guess if I sit and stare at this for a while, eventually I’ll get sleep again, and grab some more sleep before getting up. Actually looking forward to work tomorrow, got a server to build, something specific to do with short timescales, just the kind of thing I like.

Painting Diary and other Things

Well, my finger is starting to heal. Gentle scab forming (which is nice), got rid of some loose, dry, dead skin earlier with the toenail clippers. Have had it bandage-free since I got back from work which is helping.

Can’t believe this fuel thing, weird. We’ve got enough petrol (4star LRP, still a bit to be had) to last us until the weekend I guess. See what happens then. I can’t believe people think the government should cave-in, even if taxes are too high, they can’t knee-jerk, otherwise it’ll spell disaster. The money has to come from somewhere, otherwise next year people will be moaning that schools and the NHS are suffering.

I’ve opened a new diary at the Live Journal site, to record my miniature painting activity, instead of half in here and half on the old pages. You can get to it here. Ah well, back to the paint pot.

pain

finger2finger1

please excuse the lack of capital letters. i’ve sliced open the little finger of my right hand, and can’t really use that hand atm.

so i’m typing left handed.

these two photos show the dressed wound (we’ve taped two fingers together to stop movement opening the wound).

it’s worse than it looks in the pictures 🙁

ah well, last time i wash that cup.

NewsMangler

Just messin’ about with NewsMangler, adding some more features to the telnet interface.

Getting very annoyed at folk on usenet who refuse to even accept that there might be some best common practices for formatting and behaviour. Some folk just have no respect or any sense of community.
