15 October 2000

Well, I’m knackered. I really need a shower (but can’t have one, Arrrggghhh), but I’ve actually had a really, really good weekend. I’m actually not feeling “on the edge” as I have been (by which I mean feeling okay – but any slight thing would tip me into being depressed).

Anyway, so, meeting Aoife. I think that went well tbh, We chatted, a lot, then went to Burger King and chatted for a long time. She’s also one of the few people who understands the “stop me buying this” (Kid A), and gently removed it from my hands….

I don’t know, I just had a really, really enjoyable evening. I don’t know what else to say…..

On other subjects – apparently switching of noachis terra was a Bad Idea. On Friday night it kept beeping, and on checking it appeared that one of the login screens was full of ‘-‘ symbols. Anyway, I moved the keyboard (pressed return actually) the new login came up….and I left it. It did it again. This time I made certain that nothing was pressing against any part of the keyboard (but was rather suspicious). It did it one final time, but I was off to bed, so I simply went for shutting it down to be sorted out when I came back.

On switching it on….the hdd made new and interesting noises. Then I noted that it failed to boot – complaining initially that it couldn’t mount the swap, then failing to load a file. Then dying.

Methinks that that new hdd will have to be ordered sooner rather than later. However it’ll have to wait until I have a job – which is really, really quite annoying as I can no longer play MP3’s. Also I was in london, I could have flown to a show and back…..but no, it is too late now….cack.
