What an odd week
It's gone from great, to terrible, back to great.

Monday - 14 hour day - Great, got an absolute ton of work done with a good soundtrack keeping me entertained.
Tuesday - 14 hour day - Terrible, had a tiny lunch, was hungry by 5pm, and had to keep working until 10pm just to make a dent in the amount of work I had.
Wednesday - Great - Day was nothing spectacular, but evening was ace, Liverpool won, and I had a great time with mates.
Thursday Day - Terrible - Got a 10 minute lunch, spent the entire afternoon glued to my monitor as I had to start working out what we could possibly delete off a full server
Thursday Night - Great - Gave my statement at the police station, was informed that the lad is wanted by 2 sets of Police, and a conviction in my case was pretty much guaranteed, plus compensation. Then went and had a curry and a few beers bought for me.
Today - Fucking Terrible - Just had some cunt who has very little idea about my job telling me what I should and shouldn't be doing. All this was delivered with a shit eating grin. Plus my friend from earlier in the week (fake suicide) has found out she's suffering from split personality & bipolar, so now she's terrified her child will be taken off her (single parent, 20 years old)

So I have high hopes for tonight, as it should be amazing!

How has your week been?

I SAW LOADS OF DOGS TODAY, AND SOME RABBITS, AND SOME CATS, AND SOME LIZARDS, AND SOME RODENTS.
Oh man, I had one of the best days of my life today, so many animals.

Man, I'm so high on watching puppies for a good few hours, I should work with dogs or something, you can't be sad around a dog, and if you do manage to be, they'll know and try to cheer you up.
Man, I know that sounds completely autistic, but I really really like dogs.

Unconditional love and companionship !

What kind of Dogs, Gonz?
JUGS (Jack Russell and Pug cross-bread) !
King Charles Spanials !
Bull Dogs !
Something that looked like a chiwawa which wasn't my cup of tea.

And I'm getting a pet rabbit and I'm going to call it Willard, and I've got a book about training it to do tricks and all that.

And I'm going to put it's hutch in the hall and put some astro-turf on top and grow plants on top of that and make it look awesome and garden'ey, but indoors, and it'll look soo cool. And when the rabbit is ready, it'll run around the house and when I sit down to watch hollyoaks it'll come to me for petting and I'll train it to piss and shit in Sexface's bed and I will get a top-hat for it to hide in as they like hidey-places so that would look awesome too.

I wanted to see if I can get a harnis for my rabbit and take it for walks down the street, but I get adverts for vibrators and pictures of iraqi war criminals.

Oh man, I can take it out to clubs and be all like "Hay babe, want to see my rabbit?", It'd be a totally chick magnet. I might get a white cane and dark sunglasses and walk it down the street.

Even if you're scrupulously clean you cannot avoid the smell.

I'm not trying to put you off mate, rabbits are ace, just a friendly word of advice re the smell.

Up and down like yours
Monday - Quiet, chilled out indoors watching some old episodes of Las Vegas

Tuesday Day - Interview A - Went very well, nice people, nice company, unfortunately it is a shift based job in Feltham so the travel for it will suck if I get it.

Tuesday Night - Met a random Australian in my local who had arrived that day after travelling around South America for three months, he then went on to buy lots of drinks and convince me to take him to a strip club where spent a fortune before we were eventually thrown out at about 3AM.

Wednesday - Interview B - Unfortunately I don't think this went as well as the one the day before but I'm hopeful especially as it is for a nice seeming company who are close by doing a 9-5 so much more preferable than the other one.

Thursday - Another Quiet one indoors, annoyingly one of the TB drives in my main storage array died but at least it is under warranty so I just have to sort out RMAing it to Seagate.

Today - Got a text from a friend who I'd given a CV to a few weeks ago and it looks like his company wants to see me soon, could be good athough going back to doing normal IT after all this time in media might be a bit wierd at first. Also uploaded some new images to my OKCupid profile and got a message just now so a good day all in all so far.

( Roota zweeeeeoooooowm, Fri 22 Jan 2010, 18:24, Reply)

It's better than most built-in phone browsers
but there was a specific flaw, a difference between 4.2 and 5 beta that pissed me off so much. I think... Actually, it kept erasing the whole content of a textbox I was editing, at random, sometimes after a few words, sometimes after writing out a long and interesting blog post. I ended up shouting at my phone after the twentieth time I lost masses of text and deleted it without a second thought.

Plus I've been using Mini 4 for a good couple of years now. I'm so used to it, it almost hurt to upgrade.

But I also find that it only does it if you exit and return. So long as I make sure I'm entirely happy with what I'm about to submit and don't go back with any afterthoughts, it doesn't freeze or delete..?
