I was shutting down my laptop last night, and I was logged into mainpc, doing some stuff on there. I completely forgot and su'ed to root, and typed "shutdown -h now". It took me about 30 seconds after mainpc had shut down before I realised what I'd done. D'oh. *groans while his head sorts itself out and tries to wake up*

I was poking through the BBC News' PhotoJournalism website and found this... http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/magazine/in_pictures/default.stm

There's something there about a housing crisis in Czechoslovakia, and in that mini-series there is ( this picture )

I should move my rear end and do something. Do something productive. I think... I think I shall do my washing and my washing up. Yes. I've got loads of washing. Gonna head into work and do some overtime tonight for the heck of it. Think of the money :)

I bought a bottle of Vodka last night and didn't touch a drop. Bah. I think I was too tired to even contemplate drinking properly. Anybody want some? :)

I think I need to go to Boots. I need a new battery for my car's alarm activation thingiewhatsit. And some smellystuff. I will take a walk into town. Yes. I shall.

While I'm at it, I need to investigate stuff for next week. Holiday!!!! Yay!

But nahh, I'm enjoying the time off too much!

Kitchen is once again in a suitable state to be called a clean place. Not that it was dirty, just full of washing up that needed doing. Living room is better, still a little messy but easily sorted by moving the pile of clothes from the single seater into the bedroom, probably to join the pile of clothes on the chair in there ;)

You know, from my writing here, I get the impression that I am a real slob. I'm not. It's just that I let things get to a level which annoys me, then go on a mad tidy-binge and clean it all. At which point I have a bad week at work or whatever, and find that washing up or putting clothes away is just way too much hassle, and the cycle starts again.

*sniff* I can smell tumble-drying. Ick, I dislike that smell!
I was in the bath watching GoldMember the other day, took the laptop into the bathroom and sat it on the toilet seat :) I knew I knew this was a good purchase!

OhOh, I know what I need to do. Yes. Firstly, fix X on my main PC, then write a letter to Hamilton insurance telling them to cancel my insurance with them. Paying more money out than needs be right now. I can always take it out with them again later.

Best do that tonight before I can forget. Well... I either need to fix X or get CUPS working properly. Which is easier? :?
