Kate’s allegedly a human (although increasingly right-wing bigots would say otherwise). She’s definitely not a vampire, despite what some other people claim. She’s also mostly built out of spite and overcoming oppositional-sexism, racism, and other random bullshit.
So she’s either a human or a lizard in disguise sent to destroy all of humanity.
Either way, she’s here to reassure that it’s all fine.

Screaming silently at the wind
It’s been a tiring few days – what with the Starter Motor on the car failing at the least opportune moment (I’d just finished a shift and was about to head home having parked in a ‘quite dodgy area’ when it decided that it’s raison d’être was to be a giant power consuming magnet instead…

Plot == Lost
Argh! I’ve replaced now: – Motherboard – Diskdrives – Powersupply – Graphics Card – Processor fan (old one was noisy, anyhow). And y’know what, it’s *still* randomly crashing and rebooting. The problem got *worse* after I changed the graphics card (way back when), I’ve got a brand new unpatched, unmolested version of XP on there…

Piddle
It appears that my finger waving at the Abit motherboard was somewhat wrong. Well, possibly. Now we’ve got “spontaneous reboot syndrome”. I’m wondering if the powersupply is toast (again); it does smell faintly of old over hot component but I’m not 100% convinced it’s the cause of the problem. However, if I apply load to…

Good old Auntie
So, years and years ago I taped Planes, Trains and Automobiles when it was shown on my beloved BBC. tonight, for the first time I’m watching it on Sky, in Widescreen – and without it being the BBC’s re-edited and dubbed for early evening showing version. I must ad mist I was quite suprised when…

Wallwart, circa 1960.
So, I could have been hugely rich, it turns out. My dad invented the wallwart, to power his dansette. Or Frankensette as it should perhaps be called. For there is much that contradicts nature which occurs within the dansette of doom. No, but seriously, if my dad had patented that idea… well, we’d be responsible…

A battle with no winners.
It appears razors are up to 5 blades. 5. When will the madness end?!

Okay, I’m a moron
Today is not the 31st of August. I realised this some of the way to university. I decided to check anyway, but no, it not being the 31st the results weren’t back.

Thinking aloud and stressing quietly
So: – House lease runs out on the 8th October – I’m on holiday from 24th October – I have no written job offer as yet (although a conditional one by e-mail); they won’t send me a ‘full’ offer until they’ve got my occupational health clearance and my references back – One of my references…

Home and Religion
So, at home again. It is, today, the first anniversary of my dad’s death; and so I came home to spend the weekend with my mum; to give dhanna (sp.) to a small group of monks and nuns my mum had invited over from Amaravati, and – as usual to do a few odd jobs…
