My carbs need balancing as well, but I could really do with a decent set of balancers (which I do not have).
As for the clutch, then I just need a new one. Bah.
Sweet Halloween touch for the site, by the by. Let's see... Having a weekend off was nice. Did nothing related even loosely to work on Saturday, 'cept perhaps for getting my living area slightly less...to stay here by myself. And then my birthday's on the way. ****. And in big news, I'm thinking of something that would guarentee plenty of postings up here. Ever heard of NaNoWriMo? Eh heh heh
One of the benefits of living off campus is the walk back to the place my stuff resides is typically long enough that I can get some thinking worked out on the way. Sometimes I don't like what that is...only, in the end, prolongs the entire thing. I don't know what to do, so I'll just keep going on my path until I figure it out or fall off the edge. Hm.

Sunday: Pub brekkie if possible then back to Nottingham mid morning to chill before Salsa class in the evening
And that’s that!
Soooo. 'bout that whole posting thing... Yeah. I suck. I let life and my other responsibilities get in the way of my hobby here.

I spent the last week with Lisa visiting my family in Ireland and thankfully managed to catch up with...
Gym Wednesday Morning and then England match after work - at a pub, but on the mineral water I think!
Thursday and Friday - Evening sessions at the gym
Weekend - Can’t plan ahead that far!!!
Oh wow oh wow oh wow. So I was working past the end of shift Friday afternoon. Homecoming recess had started, and while I had nothing better to do, I was attempting to leave work in some state of sanity...Ninja's cabin, which is this wonderfully wood furnished, wood heated cabin with waterfront access to Plum Lake. I have forgotten how much I love wood stoves! And wood stoves + ceiling fan = true

I’m not after a dodgy copy, as I have a valid key...to buggery though.

Woohoo Saw a prescreening of a...a desktop in my apartment up and running, then code on that for that same period of time, either on my own personal projects or on another topcoder project.
