And once again, it appears my nack for Blog titles are fantastic as usual. Does anyone know it was Tuesday today? Granted I may not have done but that was because I was being silly and having yet another day at home to mess around with various things and frolics.
I felt like a man today because I changed the pull cord light switch in the Bathroom, all by myself. It take forever mind you and well it would have been better off actually done by someone in the electrical business but hey ho, you have to learn these things at some point.
Also cut down a tree in the garden, a new washing line was put up and this may cause a shock to some people, I was once again playing WOW.
Well I start back to Uni on Thursday and well that will drive me mental. So in turn this blog and other things will keep me sane(ish) I figure I may as well p**s away my hours playing a game which takes forever to achieve anything but when you do you feel “Thank God I don’t have to do that again!” until the next quest where you feel you are doing the same thing but with different characters.
Actually I have to ask you all right now, does anyone remember the book I was writing a long time ago? At the start of the year, one of my aims was to write about the year in the life of me. Then because of the fact it was too close to the knuckle, it was changed but then got shelved because well I got writers’ block.
I really could not go anywhere with what I had written, only 3 chapters mind you, and a lot of it was very bland. Good thing it will never see the light of day I say. Think I would have to really think about what I want to write about and why.
Then again, I already do enough things as it is, it’s a case of sitting down and trying to decide what the priorities are for things to do. I enjoy writing this blog, granted it’s nowhere near the same as writing a book, but it’s as good as it gets at the moment.
The podcast by the way is still in the process of being finalised, it’s the content which keeps changing because of the stuff of V, the things which happened since then, I am still trying to sort it all out. It will be out this month!?! (What out this month?!? I can really narrow it down can’t I?) The Website’s change over to Flash is actually stopped at the design phase because of the fact that separate “movies” need to be loaded into the interface for each section.
Natalie’s site is at the gallery construction stage, because this is the majority of what her site will be made of, to show her works. And that is it for the creative stuff on the website business. As you saw on this site, I am now able to host flash files all here for the movies, not relying on MySpace or anything, altering the free player available on the internet, and well so far so good, the encoding to the FLA format works fine now and the file size is quite good for broadband. Nice.
The real world news has been an eyeful, hasn’t it? The McCanns are in the naughty over their missing daughter, as the Spanish police have found Madeleine’s blood in the back of their hire car. It just gets worse doesn’t it? I really do wonder what is going to come next. It’s sounded iffy the whole story from the beginning, and now the news is coming through of all sorts of goings-on. Which way will it go?
Today was another anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, and people morn the few thousand who died this day, The problem of obesity in Britain (of which I suppose I should say, I am a part of the problem. May as well say it, it’s the truth) poses a serious threat to the future of the NHS in England according to a report which states as more of us go into Hospital due to being fat, it will diminish NHS resources further which is bad.
Oh and a couple who have lived in Travelodge’s for more than 20 years are to have a room named after them. Why would anyone stay in a Travellodge for over 20 years? I know the £26 rooms are cheap but still, it’s taking the p**s!
I go to bed, knowing full well that the day will bring bad stuff again at work. It normally does after being off. that’s the only thing you never look forward to from work. The foresight of seeing things going wrong and there is nothing you can do.
I also feel quite strange about other recent events which I suppose I will go into another time. I have just finished watching Red Dwarf Series 3 (cheers Glyn, Kelly and Christine for that) and so to bed. One last thing:
Pre-order HL: Episode 2 now. (I am also looking at Adobe Audition 3 which is due November and about time too)
Good night campers. 🙂
