I miss the old meDon't click that back button, you're going to sit there and read my self-masturbatory post and you're going to love it.
And just in time too, if I had to give one more alphanumeric password to someone who couldn't speak English, I would have created an international incident. In case I didn't mention it before, I worked on a helpdesk at a university for three years. It was meant to be a job to get me through uni, which it did, but a combination of laziness and bad choices made by others kept me there long past my expiry date.
And it put me in a rut. I used to love my job. I'd rock up late, do my day's work in half an hour and spend the rest of the day playing Flash games. I had the best view from my desk in the early months. Summertime at a university, my former boss called it Young Talent Time. I was going to set up a webcam at my window before I left. I need to stop starting paragraphs with "And".
And I need to stop getting sidetracked. Over the last few months I've been feeling more apathetic than usual. I've wanted to leave in the past, but I would always wake up to myself and play some more of that ninja game. Thankfully market forces came to my rescue, I got a new job to stop being so broke. I am now a web developer with an unnamed company far from where I live, so I'll be moving closer to there soon. My first few days have been ok, I haven't had much to do. Let's hope that a new job will make me feel more like the lazy, uncaring, old me.
I have a growing list of new stuff to add to the site, but I doubt I'll get much time to implement any of it soon. Some posts look like shit in Internet Explorer 6, which is just desserts for using IE. Thanks to snaptackle who made me a new banner out of boredom, it's the Hollywood one. You know, running a website takes a hell of a lot of effort. Just ask Lowtax...
Speaking of undeserving ingrates, check out the (thankfully) lower end of the list of search terms that people have recently used to find this site. What the hell is wrong with you all!?
Supposedly the simplest task a handyman could do, took me 3 hours. I bought a tap-fixing toolkit, a 14 piece set that I used 1 piece of. Taps are far more complex than they need be, I found out the hard way that you need to turn off the water to the house before you start. Here is a picture of the possible water mains to my house. Guess which one was the real water mains valve.
If you guessed D) None of the above, you'd be right. The REAL water mains valve is buried under an inch of dirt three inches to the side of these three, click the picture to see the excavation. Holy shit, it was like a Myst puzzle. I'd turn one valve, run inside, water was still running, go back and try another combination.
if it wasnt for me those people looking for scat wouldn't have come here.
funnily enough, the same applies for me here, in my home.
So, to give Silpheed some spotlight time, how is the job going? Have you already been caught by the IS department downloading X-Tube videos? My IS guys are pretty cool, they turn a blind eye if I share.
