Didn’t I promise? So… here we are…
A real diary entry….
I’ve spent some of today watching the death of a tv channel, which was kinda
odd – we tried to get them to give us a
plug, but they didn’t, so Nuts to them.
All these presenters who, well, it was a shopping channel, so what they’re
going to go on to do I can’t really imagine. These presenters who were basically
jobless promoting their personal websites and taking the piss out of the
products they were selling – I guess after 4 years of selling mostly shite
there’s got to be a lot of sarcasm waiting to get out…
Anyway, it was a bit strange.
There was something else, oh yes, me being peeved because they’ve been
really annoying with the TV scheduling today. It’s not like there’s much
worth watching on TV (this doesn’t stop me lazily slobbing in front of it, but I
know that mostly what I’m watching is crap) but tonight they’ve put three
programs I want to watch on at once. Grr.
[Enterprise, ‘Fifth Gear’ and Junkyard Wars]
What else? Well we’ve been out postering? Did I mention that before…no,
apparently not. Well, I’ve mentioned it now – we’ve been around the uni area
distributing posters/flyers. Hopefully we’ll manage to get some interest. That’d
be good.
I’m still thinking about how to redo the regolith website. Already you’re
asking – Yes. I like it, but it doesn’t seem to be generating interest. Lots of
hits, but not so much in the way of interest. Although we’ve had a request for a
fairly big quote….
Anyway, so I’ve been having an interesting conversation on IRC – although
I’ll only put in the bits I’ve said:
[KateE] But then I decided when I transitioned that I’d do whatever the fuck I wanted and
sod anyone who says “girls don’t do that”.
[KateE] I spent long enough trying to conform to what people expected of me, now I just
do what I want.
[KateE] So I play with computers, and electronics, and motorbikes and cars….
[KateE] ….it’s not like they can come at me with a pickle jar and a staple gun.
[KateE] it only took me about 18 years to work out that however hard I tried I
was still me underneath.
Anyway, that’ll do.
