Note to self: Do
not buy
two paninis and think you could eat both of them in a row.
I think I'm going to
barf.
Those things are so damn
filling.
Nausea aside, the day has gone pretty well. I got my
printed Arabuusimiehet-
posters, and they look quite pretty. But I am thinking about getting
real posters made out of it, big and on a
shiny paper. That would qualify as
cool if you ask me.
Once again, I had to just sit around while the
bosses held some
presentation using my
workstation. It sucks to have the best
monitor in the office. Well, actually it's nearly the
only monitor, since many of us use
laptops nowadays. I prefer a real
PC with a 19" screen,
thank you.
Some of my
fellow workers say they are coming down with a
fever. Since I've only been seriously sick once in the last five years, it's doubtful they can
spread the
virus on me. A couple days of
solid sack time couldn't really hurt though. I didn't have a
vacation this summer, saving my holidays for
december.
I *really* feel
nauseous. Maybe some good old
noding will take my
mind off the
Italian delicacies trying to
burst out of my
stomach.

Phew! Just like
yesterday, I have somehow managed to do
important work stuff
and a lot of noding. A lot for a
slow noder like myself, that is. And unlike some of you might think, none of my
synthesizer entries are "cut'n'paste writeups". The information is gathered from 4-5
sources and written in my own words. Hopefully this is
appreciated by at least some of you.
I'm somewhat happy to see this
crap I'm typing hasn't received much
votes today, at least yet. Getting lots of
XP for such mindless
sludge makes me feel all
guilty, since other noders (like
Prole today) present a helluva lot more
interesting and
meaningful thoughts than myself, but get roughly the same amount of
upvotes. And I for one don't write day logs for the
XP. Naturally, I prefer the current
situation to all the entries being
downvoted. Still, there is
guilt from getting XP way too
easy.
*sigh*.. what the hell am I
whining about again? I should try my
best to come up with interesting and meaningful
stuff, instead of wasting
time and
space complaining about something so
silly.
Time to leave the office. I'm supposed to
shave and get a
haircut today. No more
Chewbacca-look for a while!
22:54 EET
After losing my
beard and most of my
hair, I almost look like a
human being! I should probably take a new picture of myself
now, before the removed
accessories grow back. Not that the picture currently on my
home node would be too
outdated, it was taken some 11 months ago.
Dunno why, but I feel *good*. There isn't anything
particular to feel happy about, but nothing that
negative either. Maybe it's the
comfortable weather? The good
music I'm listening to? Who cares? I'll enjoy the feeling as long as it will last.
