of being absolutely wiped out. I never sleep in the day – and have done both. I never have headaches as bad as this 2 days in a row. Feel shattered. Drained is the word, it’s beyond tired. Running on automation. Not running, just moving. Very very slowly.

Disgaea: Hour of Darkness - Posted 14:37 Thursday 29 Oct 2009
It arrived, all the way from the USA:
It is perfectly sealed. No holes, no scratches on the covering plastic. Mint. But do I play it? Took a while to find, I have a few games on the go right now (Fallout 3, FF VII, Monster Hunter and SOCOM) and if I do open it [...]
Credit inexpert - Posted 16:40 Wednesday 28 Oct 2009
At some point in the last couple of years Jacq signed us up to a service called CreditExpert. I will have chosen a password, told J what it was and left her to do whatever it did. I don’t care for any money issues, it’s all down to Jacq to sort (which she likes so [...]

I have decided to move the contents of my old /T2 blog into this one. Not sure of some of the finer details – like showing the posts as opposed to making them all private – but I’m finding some images that have memories.
This was July 2007 just after WordCamp. The first picture I took [...]
Yes it did. - Posted

Implications [...]

On leaving the shop turn around and walk straight back to the same person. Say you have changed your mind, that you want a refund.
He [...]

Joe’s Bar
An undistinguished bar, yet the social center of Upper Sandusky. The front door is almost lost amidst the hazy maze of neon that shrouds the grimy glass of the south wall. Doors marked “Ladies” and “Gents” lead, respectively, northeast and northwest.
In every game that comes to mind right now where I [...]
.jp radio - Posted 15:24 Monday 26 Oct 2009
Currently listening to http://oyakan.hp.infoseek.co.jp/radio/. I have not the faintest clue what they are singing but it sounds great. Station found and being recorded with Snowtape. iTunes has no idea how to name/tag the exports which is also amusing. It has the Genre as ‘music’. That’s it.
