Note: This entry is really a miriad of very short entries made throughout the day

Bleurgh – I feel like shite.

Yup, it’s another one of those funky iPAQ entries…anyway – so – first up, I saw this – which amused me. Why? Well temping gives you an interesting opportunity to see what different companies are like for security – and my current opinion is that they are all crap. This computer in front of me, yes? It has the users passwords written on stickers on it.
I’ve heard users giving out their passwords and usernames over the phone, and to each other. What, you have to wonder, is the point?

Ahh, all becomes clear, I was going to have a major bitch about the number of
lemming-peds out today, but I understand it now. They were all looking at the flying pigs. (Incidentally, for when that news page changes (and for those too lazy to look) I’m referring to Microdigital having a working p ototype Omega.

You know when you see something and you just want to say “jesus mate, chill” (or words to that effecty? Well; having discovered that the T* biochemist I linked to a few days ago is actually someone I talk to online (well duh!) I saw this comment. Obviously, both due to being bored and also due to the fact I have nothing whatsoever against Diane I wondered if this persons Livejournal might shed some light on this comment….but since it’s a friends only journal I guess I’ll remain in the dark….

So, it’s now 15:30 and I’m feeling incredibly awful – headache/sick. This is probably related to the awful nights sleep I got last night. I suspect I got about 5 hours – which seems like quite a long time – but really isn’t.

I don’t think it’s related to the whole throwing up/feeling sick thing I had on Saturday. I’ve still got no iden what caused that. Only that it was very bad and I don’t want it again. It might be related to overtiredness I guess. Although I’ve been more or less managing to get to bed at a reasonable time I’ve not actually been sleeping particularly well.

Actually, this could all be tied in. My Stress Related Disorder is back (yup, that excellent way to lose weight). Hrm.

Not that I have even the faintest clue what to do about that. As my GP said “be less stressed”. Oookay….what am I meant to do? Listen to relaxing music? Take more baths? I’ve actually stopped using the PC here (temping still) because my eyes hurt – and I’m feeling sick. Though that’s possibly related to the amount of caffine I’ve had just to stay awake.

Wow, I’ve never heard anyone actually say “we need to think outside the box” before. Well, not seriously :-)

Undoubtedly the worst thing about this job is not being able to use IRC. You see, I’m not actually terribly busy, indeed as you have probably noticed I’ve been spending lots and lots of my time writing overly wordy diary entries – and doing far more online quizes than is healthy….
