AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

Posted on March 5, 2004 By admin 8 Comments on AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH!

Imagine this. A potential client is here for a demo. Of course, the stuff that is to be demoed, which was running perfectly last week, is no longer working because someone has been mucking with the webserver settings. Of course, I notice this while my boss is doing his sales pitch, because nobody bothered to check that everything was kosher *before* the client comes (and since I found out that the client was coming 30 minutes before he actually comes in the office, I can say that this should have been a big case of notmyproblemitis)

Frantically, I go in and start fixing stuff that's been broken without anybody bothering to tell me. I almost had to resort to troubleshooting rule #1, but I got everything up and running without the client ever noticing *buffs nails on shirt*

I rule, that is all.

That was one fucking weird movie

Posted on March 5, 2004 By admin 2 Comments on That was one fucking weird movie

Had a drink with [info]eniran after work tonight, and I finally got to talk to her girl. “You're insane, I like you” was my favourite quote of that conversation. She sounds like a really cool person, and i can't wait to meet her. Spent the whole time at Hurleys talking about amusing topics, mostly revolving around naughty stuff. She's a natural storyteller, and she had me in stiches. T'was grand.

Came back to my place to watch Being John Malkhovich, a profoundly disturbed movie. A movie that talks about hermaphrodism and lesbian witches has to be cool.

Off to bed now, g'night.


Edit: Another quote from the movie that had us giggling like idiots: “my spunk is like manna from heaven”.

Quote of the day

It was a puzzle why things were always dragged kicking and screaming. No one ever seemed to want to, for example, lead them gently by the hand.
--(Terry Pratchett, The Truth)
