A Delightful New Decade To All!
01.01.10 | Permalink | 2 CommentsI know some hold that the decade doesn’t end until 2011, but in my opinion, if the tens digit clicks over, it’s a new decade! So here’s hoping that 2010 is a good one, and the ‘teens treat you well!

Snow!
It finally got around to snowing around my place, having started in England before Scotland, which is just wrong. It wasn’t snowing when I left work in Glasgow, and I snoozed on the bus home (I was actually worried I’d missed my stop), and when I woke up everything was different…

Mouse relocation
11.22.09 | Permalink | 5 CommentsI finally deployed my Live Catch Trip Trap Mouse Trap, as you’re supposed to check it every two hours, and this is really the first time since I bought it that I’d actually have the time to relocate the mouse should one turn up in it.

Endeskinated
08.29.09 | Permalink | 4 CommentsI’ve taken delivery of a new desk, which means I now have enough space to bring my graphics tablet out of hiding. I’m hoping that this will mean I actually do some artwork occasionally…
The old desk is going back into the spare room, to be my (theoretical) physical art station.

"Creative Slacker" referrs to the fact that I should be doing creative stuff – writing, art, 3D animation, RPG stuff, but I don't. Maybe "lazy bastard" would be more appropriate.Tag Cloud
