there sounds like there is a banshee stuck in one of the elevator shafts. Every time that lift goes by it emits this horrible shrieking noise, its really starting to freak me out. Early lunch time *nods*

gah, i took off next week on holliday, but now i feel like im comming down with the flu. Dammit. My left knee is also acting up, i've been getting pains in it for aslong as i can remember when i keep it bent (you can imagine what sitting crosslegged in school assemblies were like). It usually comes and goes every few months but its worse than usual, prolly time i saw a specialist.

friday was fun, had quite a big crowd out aswell, if i had a bit more money i would have done the black planet or abdunction thing too. Headed home about 11 with Jasmine. much fun seeing kanika, broken_daniel, dk_heartbr8ka, ravenous_kitten, yar_daft_willie, toxic_homicidal, blue_beard, piggypigpigpig, phalnax, aurora_noir, cat_guts, heavenswhispers, smokeysonlj

last night i went for a family dinner at the long grain. my sister goes back to NY today but will be back in november :D. I'm getting hassled a bit to go over and the upcomming payout gives me the means to do it :D. After that went down to the Gaelic club and watched some metal bands with kanika & leech_boi.

new about work, im told i may not be needed after the end of the month. This is a good thing, but nothing goes to plan in this place so ill just wait and see. ravenous_kitten has confirmed some webdev work for me which looks like fun, i also have to teach her as i go along. Have to get some details for this (preferably when im not drunk :P)

I've bought a good Dell P4 2.24 ghz, 512ram, integrated vga - from work. There are a couple of people i know who need a PC however if theyre not interested it will be up for grabs on LJ & then ebay. It will be going cheap. This is a great opportunity to buy second hand shite from my failing company, i've got my eye on 2 nice leather living room chairs awell.

anyway fun w/e, i'm off on hollidays this week so if anyone wants to do anything let me know :D

gah, server failures mean i actually have to do work today. Scumbags. 2 in 1 day. Market St's SQL server 'hiccuped' but was minor and i had it up by 9:30. The one at head office i think may be down for a while, RAID5 redundancy didnt work and its telling me it has a corrupt registry. I'm hoping this rebuild will work otherwise ill get ASR started. gah *stress*

[Edit: Fixed!]

yesterday i started packing up the Hornsby store but finished within an hour, i was ment to go out today to finish but then this shit happened.

new years was lots of fun, did the hyde park thing with (cant be bothered tagging) amy, ferret, julz, tim, aitken, aaron, ryan, kate...and more! joy. Jasmine came out later in the night too :D

i feel like im about to fall asleep. going to aallecks bday tonight, joy

You scored 92% Initiative and 70% Combat Prowess!

You are an enigma... First you joined the enemy...now you're on the good guy side... Granted you only joined the enemy to hunt down the cobra assassin that killed your uncle... Hard for your team members to trust you. In the end though...being a ninja master earns you enough of respect when you get the job done.

My test tracked 2 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 99% on Initiative

You scored higher than 34% on Combat Prowess

Found an interesting anonymous, disposable webmail account service. The site allows you to use any *@pookmail.com account and is not password protected. Any email received to the address will be deleted in 24 hours. The mailbox is not secured so anyone (who knows the username) can view it. Good for giving a dumby email address

yay i got my inherited laptop all up and working. Its a fairly new NEC model with P4 1.7ghz, 512 ram, 80gig hdd, dvd writer & fairly decent graphics xga adapter. Unfortunetally it doesnt have a PS/2 port for a keyboard and the company won't let me buy a USB one. scum

who knows, perhaps the company will fold tommo and ill loose it anyway.

it has been an interesting week, tho thank god a very short one (sick day tuesday included)

I had a job interview on wednesday which went really well. It is for an IT manager (yes, manager!) at a major hotel at 2 locations in sydney. The job pays significantly more than my current salary and if anything i'm a bit over qualified for the tech aspects of the job. I would be the only person in the department and more or less unsupervised. The only thing i have little experience in is dealing with suppliers, hopefully i can pick up some good negiotiation skills on the fly.
When i told my company i was going for interviews they dragged me into a meeting and offered me a 10% raise if i stay for atleast 6 months. I declined.

Weekend was lots of fun, kanika's & str8bi's bday events were excellent, very drunk, now very broke, and no more pancakes for atleast a week. I haven't seen any photo's, have they already been posted? I went to a LAN with machv at the UTS run by EGG (for which i am now a member, yay T-shirt!). We had some of Jasmines uni friends come along for a study they were doing on virtual ecconomies to interview some real life geeks in their natural habitat. Though it seemed that 2mins didnt go by without someone shouting some obsenity across the room, they tell me they got some great footage. (*cough* bullshit)

This weekend should be fairly plain, work drinks, followed by bar ace drinks, followed maybe by rocky (..maybe). House hunting tommo. Lots of sleeping & geeking too

garrrh. when i checked the atm last night it turns out $50 (my last $50) is missing from my account. I assumed that a direct debit had gone through early. When i checked my transaction list today it turns out the $50 debited was from a taxi on the 24th of august.

this was for the wednesday after the NIN concert and im certain i didnt catch a taxi then, especially one for $48. The bank says it will take them no longer than 45 days to work it out..... For fucks sake in the age of information you'd think they would atleast be able to give me the name of the Cab company, so i could find out for myself.

they explained the reason the transaction came through a month late was because it is common for taxi's to loose their connection to their eftpos provider. When i quizzed them that a month is a very long time for a eftpos connection to be down they didnt really have anything to say.

atleast its been a good week financially and i get paid tommo. Its just another week i've had to borrow money to make it thru.

kill.
