And again...

I am very tired, but for some reason I can feel the adrenaline going round my veins. I really don't know why, but as it is adrenaline, it gives energy when you don't necessarily need it. I really just want to go to bed and sleep. I tried that earlier, I was beyond restless.

So. Plan B

I have a can of Kronenbourg 1664 next to me. I am hoping that a very modest amount of alcohol will help me doze off. Still, tomorrow is my last day in the office for a week. Get through that and the world is my lobster.

Faster than a bleeding skillet

All things considered I managed a reasonable night’s sleep in the end. Once the Kronenbourg 1664 had gone down, I wandered off to bed absolutely knackered, but still unaccountably bursting with adrenaline. I have no idea why I should get an adrenaline rush just before bed. My life isn’t exciting enough to warrant it. Nonetheless, there it was. It took a while to doze off, but I did in the end, and slept the sleep of the dead.

Just as well, as today, being my last day in the office for a week has been hectic. I have been as busy as a …er… busy thing, and I’m not entirely sure that I’ve managed to get rid of everything I should have. Not that I care, particularly. I can do it when I come back.

Well, yesterday we completed the ISP migration from entanet to Plus Net , a switch that would have been a little more complicated had not Ser Taylor been at hand, as I had no idea where the url was for the router, so couldn’t change the settings to point it at the new server. Ironically, on the day the migration took place, we received a new bill from entanet, still in Adam’s name despite the fact he moved out 3½ months ago, and with no hint of the fact that they had already migrated us. I wouldn’t want to be in their accounts department if they try to take the money from Adam’s bank account through direct debit. He should, of course, have cancelled, but I’m not sure he has…

Anyway, we’re still at 512k for the next week potentially, but once BT get their act together and do what ever magic they do at the exchange, we will be up to 2mb, which increases the urgency for a 200gig hard drive on my PC so I can download all that nice telly and stuff on the bit torrents. Luckily the brutes are relatively cheap these days. I’m just going to have to remember where the various applications are, and how they are spread across the drives I already have. That might be fun.

Two hundred gigabytes.

Ten years ago I was fretting over a 100meg hard drive. Cripes.

Kudos to JKR for getting kids reading again; maybe in a few years time we will have a generation that is at least partially literate.

Beyond that.

Yawn.
