Looks like it's going to be a
workday dedicated to
noding. My
client is having an
internal meeting on the project, which means I just have to sit around and wait for the
judgement.
Well, I seem to be
lucky today. I was just cursing on forgetting to grab any
snacks to work, and found a
chocolate bar I bought
yesterday and forgot in my
backpack. It's not a
luxurious banquet by any means, but a lot better than
nothing.
Great! If my
measuring is correct, a 19"
Samsung monitor (900SL+) can just barely fit a new into my
desk/shelf/cabinet-
system at home. I couldn't really
afford one, but I have no choice with my current screen approaching the end of its
road. Too bad a new
TV is
really away from my
financial reach, since I wouldn't go with anything less than a nice-sized 100Hz
widescreen television. The
money is even not the only issue, that kind of
monster would need a reasonable amount of
space, which I don't
possess.
Ok, although I don't have any
work to speak of today, I should go easy on the noding. Last night I started feeling the
symptoms of an
E2 Overdose already. Apparently I haven't built much
tolerance for this
drug yet.

Speaking of last night, I made an another attempt at
producing "
piripolkka" for my
friend. It came a bit closer, but I still don't feel "at home" creating that kind of material. I have to play a
raw version of the
track to my friend to see if it's anything like what he is looking for.
What's going on with my
neck? It has felt
welded shut all day. I should get a new
pillow or try to change my typical sleeping
position. Or could it be I just sit in front of a
computer too much? No, impossible..
The
company should hire a
pretty secretary with above-average
massaging skills. Yes, that would be something.
Wow, apparently I'm not the only one thinking there is something wrong with the day log
upvote dumping (see my entry
yesterday). While I still feel quilty for getting the same reputation for boring and uninteresting entries than I do with the noteworthy ones (if there are any). But still, dumping by upvoting is better than
downvoting us all.
Come to think of it, maybe all these entries somehow
deserve the votes? At least I myself enjoy reading everybody's
thoughts and
accounts of
daily events, even those which aren't
earthshattering. Still, pure mindless dumping isn't good. At least I'm
balancing out the books by
spewing out tons of
synth nodes which never get more than +1.
Blah, this is the last you'll hear from me on the
subject. What use is there to
whine for this? Haven't I got anything better to do? (ok, let's not go there)
Vote what you like, how you like and for what reasons
you think it's appropriate.
It's not all about the
XP anyway, you know.
