A car -- I think the same car -- was tracking me all the way from home to the bus station this morning, and again this midday. I also felt being watched walking on the route from the train station to work.

Re-read Dan Simmon's 'Hyperion' quadrology. Absolutely beautiful... the end makes me cry. Sci-fi literature at its very best.

Peanutbutter always gives me hickups.

I just really love 'The Ocean Blue'. Wonderful music, all tracks by them! And to think I stumbled across them by accident (through Cerulean)

Darn. Running into some problems... don't think I'll be done soon here :(
Well I can't stay past midnight, the building has to close then.

Here I am in my tenth hour of work today... about five to go (until midnight), and then back at work at 7am :(

I have to work ~15 hours of overtime tomorrow (from 9h to midnight). Combined with the overtime from today I'm already at +2 days this week!

Happy birthday dad. Wish you were still with us.

Hint: if you want me to look at your problem five minutes before my workday ends, do not treat me with contempt. Get around to you never.

I'm stuttering quite a lot lately, can't recall really having done so in the past. Must be thinking faster than I can speak as they s-s-say.

Just saw a mouse in the kitchen! I not just WANT a cat now, I NEED one. Time to try the asylum again, wasn't much luck last time though :(

Yay, updated the DVIP :) Longest time between updates for my mod since... well... ever (almost five months). Hope it works well now!

Searching for a Win tool that can do a live check of bookmarks and sync them across IE, Opera, FireFox that is free, good, and not spyware.

I wait MONTHS for my Belgian counterpart to set up his end of a VPN tunnel, and then still I have to find out for myself if it works or not. Belgium is a huge practical joke that stopped being funny 179 years ago.

My buttered bread just fell and landed spread side up. What insane universe have I accidentally entered? I wasn't aware of any portals here.

Stacking another switch tomorrow! Working with various hardwares is the favourite part of my job :)

Watched Watchmen yesterday. Very cool movie and quite faithful to the graphic novel, but a bit slow in the buildup. Definitely a future DVD.

Those little white sprites from Princess Mononoke are absolute nightmare fodder.

Onward into day three of ICDN1! CCNA here I come.

Tired, zzz time. More learning tomorrow... just Wednesday :( Why does time never fly when it could come in handy.

I'm averaging 39 tracks per day says Last.fm. Or more than a CD per day; with podcast songs individually, it'd be even more :)

Jobs suck. I need about 10 hours to work on my main mod... it's in pretty bad shape. Where to find these hours though? Weekend is for relaxing, time I REALLY need these days. And I can hardly get free time as well. I just know I am disappointing people, since I haven't been able to do a real update since September of last year :(

Day one of the first half of CCNA training (ICDN1) went by well. Hopefully by the end of this week I'll ace the test, then it's on to ICDN2!

The house is filled with women, female coworkers of my mom's. I escape into Dire Straits and a good book.
