You know what pisses me off??

People who take the piss when it comes to software… It’s hard enough in this industry as it is, without having to pussy foot around people because of a damn patent on some software rule.

I urge you to go the petition.

I feel ill again… Still reminances of last weeks, chest infection I think… Oh well… [lee]‘s not well either… he woke up this morning with a massive temperature, and a stiff neck… dont worry tis only flu… thank god :)

Woooo!! feeling better...

Well i’m feeling alot better today… not perfect, but enough… So in celebration of feeling better I went and found a track I had ages ago, but couldn’t on any of my local archives.

You must find and download Rob D – Clubbed to Death. Tis a top track… Yes, yes, yes I know it’s in the matrix film, but the full track is just amazing… Well worth the bandwidth… especially if you’ve got a decent set of speakers.

I also went and got all soppy and stuff for [lee]... Nuff said ;)

I feel like shit...

Urgh! I really don’t feel well enough to be in work… I’m not well at all. My throat feels like I swallowed a rugby ball yesterday and today my throats complaining about it… My head feels like it’s perminantly in fresh water rapids and my body’s telling me "GOTO FUCKING BED, BITCH"...

Oh, woe is me….

Damn flu...

So, another day with the dreaded flu… I’m feeling better… enough but not much… My throat still kills like a bitch, my shoulders are sore and aching and I still feeling throwing up at the sight of food, but hey… at least I’m not coughing up green shit anymore.

I’ve taken a day off work t try and recover, although I’m still working from home, I’m not inflicting my unhealthyness on anyone else… that would be just plain unfair… so I’m home, listening to TR Radio (Theo got slightly over enthusiastic and brainfarted icecast ...

My baaad; My sowwy...

Wel folks, it’sbeen a few days since I’ve been able to sit down and gather my thoughts… So here goes…

Work’s cool… I’m starting to enjoy going to work again, which is a releif since it’s a complete nightmare to find work ANYWHERE in cumbria… So, work’s cool… i’m currently being pestered to death by [keith] because he wants me to update my worksheet… hehehehe Really should do that sometime soon… maybe in a few mins… Poor Keith, has to sit down and play with Microshafted Project this weekend… On a plus note ...

random days...

I don’t know why but I’m feeling paticularly down of late… I don’t know what it is… if anyone’s got any ideas, lemme know…

[lee] didn’t come over last night… or tonight… I think he’s having an "independant moment" which is good… but it is a contributory factor in my downness… :( I don’t mind, we both need our independance… <paranoia>but i can’t help thinking that I’ve done something wrong…</paranoia>.

My head hurts slightly, it’s been on overdrive what with CAMA and Panther and all… there must be someway ...

more randomness...

Okay, so I got bored… bored of code and bored of smutty and humourless sites that really do my nut in…

So… I brainfarted this. Mmmmmm it’s work in progress at the moment, but I’m working on it… I got bored of my dull colourless design, so I decided to make some changes… as I said, it’s work in progress at the moment so don’t expect me to change it soon…

The version I drew on paper looks alot better that what I have at the moment… but it’s still good no?

Bah… other than ...

I'm scared...

… because

  1. I’ve made an unbelieveably efficient start on CAMA and NSISBuilder… It’s so damn fast and stable it’s unbelieveable
  2. I’ ve gotta hand hold Mike through his “leanring curve”. I don’t mind that, but he’s been talking about SQL Server like he know’s it inside out, designing stuff that’s either not neccessary or just being Yeah-I-know-it-all-but-can-you-help-me-with-this-really-stupidly-simple-task about it.

Never mind tho, I’ll help as much as I physically can, but who knows…

Spoke to PHB about my own performance since beginning of the year and he seems more comfortable with me ...

Love is...

...patient and kind;
Love is not jealous or conceited;
Love is not proud or selfish;
Love is not ill-mannered;
Love is not irritable;
Love does not hold a grudge;
Love is not happy with evil;
Love is happy with the truth;
Love never gives up;

Its faith, hope and patience never fail.

Okay, so today is valentines… Hmmmmmm [lee] mmmmmmmm…

Mmmmmm Audio Goodness...

Well, I’ve been doing some Audio engineering… well not engineering, more along the lines of cleanup… [lee] has a sound clip from an old BBC 2 Series, which he’s asked me to clean up for him… it’s you typical recoding onto reel-to-reel tape from a microphone held at a dodgey old telly speaker… not the best sound, but I’ve managed to clean out the background noise a fair bit… it seems to have worked…

[lee]‘s in a bit of a bad mood :( Something to do with college and I can’t get hold of him ...

I hate Barrow...

I really do hate Barrow… I hate going and I hate the office… It’s shite, horrid little cobbled building and craped working conditions… eeek…

Anyway, today was training day… Sadly CN Group has a major case of Stupid User Syndrome… A cronic case of it…

sigh

Tisk tisk tisk to me...

Hmmmm not updated for a while. I need to kill this habit now… otherwise I’m going to end up with a site that’s going nowhere… Not that it’s going anywhere at the moment…

Anyway, recent events:

  • [lee] got fantastic results on his various things that students do…
  • I had my appraisal, and i’ve still got a job
  • the ex called again…

Well, So far so good, i’ve managed to completely avoid a fuck up in this year, wonder how long it’ll last before i get kicked out of CN, fail to find a job ...

We've been playing...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I’m not exactly sure what to think, but I think i’m going mad… It turns out that I’ve coded a nice little spam plugin for OpUS… Jeez I’m glad I didn’t code OpUS in work, cos I’m sure they’ll be crawling over eachother to sell it…

Anyway, “What’s to great about your mail filter?” Well first off it’s a plugin for my OpUS project. It’s an SMTP plugin to be precise to replace the standard SMTP functionality I build. “So what?”. Okay, it uses Markov Sequences and Chains to ...

Who's a sick little puppy... ? Eh?

I am…

Yes I’ve gone and excelled in my sickness even more. It’s amazing what my mind does when it’s bored…

What have I done now?

Ooooh nothing much… only integrated OutLook with GotWorms so I can blog from outlook… "Pah! Easy.." you say… Well true yes it is if you use the folder homepage property and set it to the admin console addy…

NOT if you code a DLL using C++ and utilising the OutLook API to plug directly into outlook menu’s and so forth…

I’m sad…

Right, enough sickness, [lee]‘s gone action ...
