if not eaten (embraced)

Busy week. Weasel sadly caught my cold so we’ve both been coughing and being generally miserable.

Our new TV arrived on Tuesday and my but it is fancy. I’m not even sure I could put into words the beauty and wonder of this device. I’ve never been in love with a TV before, so this is a very new and exciting time where I feel like I ought to check my hair before walking into the lounge.

Here is our new set-up:

The media server is on the middle shelf on the right. I’ve got all my files moved over. I have so much free disk space. I just have to get my torrents seeding properly again now that they’ve moved.

We’ve set-up a Last.fm account for the server, so if you like Weasel and/or me you should friend us. I figured out our middle birthday for it: August 21st, 1980.

A few weeks ago, I was delighted to discover that I could get Mountain Dew locally. Never mind that it apparently comes from the Middle East [or something, does anyone know the language?]:

Wednesday I skipped the gym in favour of cleaning. With my health being so questionable I knew I’d only have energy to do one or the other and it has been so long since I cleaned properly. I even alphabetised our CDs, DVDs and videos. I vacuumed everywhere and got rid of all kinds of crap. Happily the Salvation Army even had a collection on Thursday so I got to dump our old clothes too.

Work continues to be interesting. I’m not sure how much I can say, some things are not going like they should and I think that Eleanor & Ralph are going to have to make some uncomfortable decisions.

I also joined yet another bandwagon – FaceBook. It has some rather-good-fun things. I’m never sure why, but all of these services leave a bad taste in my mouth. Ah well. I’m saying that I’ve hooked up with all my friends though and I get a keyword to describe it so that’s pretty kick ass.

Weasel and I watched Yu-Gi-Oh the abridged series this week, very well done and highly enjoyable. More so because it was on TV! We didn’t have to watch it from our computers. Bliss bliss bliss.
