Pathways 

When asked about the implication of the orientation, a wise man said: upside or downside, it matters not, for the sound interrupts sleep equally in all directions. So we were told, and so we went forth and preached peace between the colonies of ants, through crumbs of bread and everything else.

Anticipation 

If all goes well, only a weekend stands between me and my new computer.

29.3.07

Inyoutubated 

OK, I might be a bit late in catching up with this phenomenon. I more or less ignored the thing, even though I've uploaded a few videos of my bird so I wouldn't have to send them individually to each and every person I want to show them to. But I rarely (can't say never) actually watched what people put up there.

Oh. My. Sweet. Flower. Of. Carrot.

Now I'm sorry I've decided to take a look.

I have no words.

The Ups 

I'm laughing. I can't believe it, but I'm laughing. I'm sleepy, I'm feeling somewhat unstable, but I'm laughing. The reduced amount of meds in my system? I'd like to believe so. The question of purpose and point, however, remains.

27.3.07

Drug Me, Baby 

I think I'm starting to miss my pills, though it still might be too early to tell. One more week at a reduced dose, then I'll stop completely. And see what happens.

I'm not sure what exactly do I wish to happen.

26.3.07

No Joy 

No new computer this week, as the graphics card hasn't arrived yet. Not entirely unexpected, but still slightly disappointing. Oh, well...

DST 

Fuck. Whoever came up with this idiotic idea should... A simple death is too good for such idiocy. Combine it with gray weather, and you get a bad, bad weekend. I spent an inordinate amount of time in bed. I didn't even get drunk properly. Bad.

On the positive side, the new computer should be arriving this week. If my lucky boxers do their job, maybe even today.

23.3.07

What Future Holds 

I might be playing with fire, but I've reduced (on my own) the dosages of my meds. Now let's see what happens this weekend...

Write, Don't Remember 

I had a great idea about a post yesterday. I didn't write it (down, at least) immediately, and now I can't remember even the general things about the idea. Blah.

21.3.07

Equinox 

The reason to celebrate this night is two-fold. Firstly, it is the vernal equinox. And secondly, I have completed the ordering of the most expensive computer I've ever had.

And I ended up very much enjoying a fleet op in Eve. That in itself is worth something.

Spring 

Weekend, 20 degrees. Monday morning, two inches of snow. Monday afternoon, sun and no snow left at all.

Is this what Vivaldi had when he composed his Spring?

19.3.07

Wiki 

Swahili. Hawaiian. Bantu. Why do nerds/geeks seem to have a thing for 'uncivilised' languages?

And yes, Wikipedia (although I suppose any online encyclopedia) is a curse.

18.3.07

Progress 

Croatians have been deemed civilised enough to have PayPal accounts. There was much rejoicing as I opened one. I even read the user agreement. Now I just have to find something to use it on... Or perhaps not.

Also in the news... All the GF 8800GTS cards with 640 MB of memory in the country have been sold. And I wanted to go shopping the next week. I think I'm being not-too-subtly told that there are things I should get before the new computer.

17.3.07

Another Day, Another Breath 

To continue in the tradition of the previous weekends... It went past, thirty seconds by thirty seconds. If there is a forever-moment in this one, it hasn't happened yet. But the feeding was good.

16.3.07

Name the Song 

Only the strongest will survive,
Lead me to heaven, when we die...
I am a shadow on the wall,
I'll be the one to save us all...

15.3.07

Resolved and Returned 

The hosting hardware issues have been resolved, the downtime wasn't too bad, except for the mail server unavailability, which came at a completely wrong time. We are back in business.

13.3.07

It's Technical 

The hosting is experiencing hardware problems, and the servers are being changed. Hence the outages. We'll be back shortly.

11.3.07

Name the song 

Saddle my horse, as I drink my last ale...

10.3.07

1144+1 

So far, so good. The weekend is turning out to be quite enjoyable, but for one thing... It will be too short.

9.3.07

Freitag 

This is a Friday like Fridays should be. It might be that I'm in for a nice weekend, after several sucky ones...

8.3.07

Go West 

A long time ago, I took the Political Compass' test, and I turned out to be a moderately libertarian, slightly leftist person. As I bookmarked the result page back then, I found it when I was cleaning my bookmarks. The address and the format has been changed since then, so I got their start page, and I decided to take the test again. From the social aspect, the score was more or less the same, but as it turned out, I've moved significantly to the left since the last time.

I'd say, go figure, but I have an idea why the change in the result...

6.3.07

21"W 

Soooo pretty.

Blast from the Past 

Amazingly, my ancient GeForce 2 MX supports 1680x1050 resolution.

4.3.07

Yet Another Sunday 

I think this has been one of the worst in the recent history.

3.3.07

The How and the Why - Don't Know 

This has turned into another stupid weekend. I just can't keep my eyes open.

2.3.07

Out-of-Dream Flying 

It seems I'll be going to Amsterdam for the weekend of the 1 May. Not really an impulsive decision, since I can't make impulsive decisions which involve not going to work... But it's as close it gets.

One question that pops to mind... Why the fuck should I care if it's impulsive or not?

Here Too Soon 

Last year, when I was thinking about how I'll be getting a new computer this year, I set the time frame to around March. Well, March is here, and I still have no idea what to get. Nor do I feel ready to get anything. Except the monitor, I think I'm pretty clear on that.
