pmsumner at 11:32pm on 15/12/2003Gotta love being able to download realplayer files for later. Not quite managed to figure out why realplayer insists on running as root, I don't quite trust it enough for that kind of thing but when you haffta, you haffta.
I got fed up with mainpc being upstairs. It now lives in the cupboard in the living room. I've not yet managed to figure out how to close the cupboard properly but still, it's left upstairs free for a proper office-type place. Had to half-demolish the cupboard to get the PC in properly :) That was fuuuun! One day I should really replace the power supply (low noise) and case (something smaller than a full tower would be nice).
I rediscovered a love of Morisson's today. That place is fantastic. Loads of cheap food and stuff. Got new pillows for some daft amount of money. Nothing fantastic but good enough for my purposes. Paying for parking sucks, even if you do get it back at the checkout. And having to scrabble for pound coins for trolleys is pants, but I'm sure it's not that bad in the big scheme of things.
Work tomorrow. Should have done this morning and 4-9 this evening but 8pm came and I had to go. So sleepy. I'd only been there 4hrs and I had to scrape the car again darnit. Is howwibly howwibly cold now.
I am having deep deep misgivings about my agency now. I got a letter through my door yesterday morning with a gas safety inspection. Great, thought I. A good thing. Checked it out and the date on it was the 10th. Hmm. I didn't know anyone was coming in on the 10th. No idea, in fact. Talked to them today and they made up some crap that the inspection was done when the contractor came round on Weds 3rd to get the heating on when I finally got the gas on.
I can't prove otherwise so will accept it for now, but really have to talk to someone about this. CAB, first stop?
