Starting this friday, although I have already spent some time there doing some training.
Sadly, monash have decided that I now have to attend a series of seminars on friday afternoons, which might mean that working might nit be possible after all.
I am awaiting more news from uni before I can make any actual proclamations regarding this.

Ouch. Selling a motorbike is never an unmixed pleasure.

Take it from me. HECS debts look after themselves. Really. Promise.

iMacs are always good. No sympathy from me.

Yeah I'm a bit bummed about the bike no longer being there if I decide I need to go for a ride, but I did see a very nasty bike accident about 2 days before I sold it - just around the corner from my place - that has really made up my mind with regards to me doing battle with melbourne drivers any more..

The HECS debt is getting quite large, and I'm only in my 3rd semester! I hope to make some early payments to take advantage of the discounts you get on them.

The complete deadness of the iMac was quite a sight to see. The new one should be here early in the week I hope though, so sympathy is not required.

I do hope you're cat dilemmas get sorted out soon, cats don't need extra stress in their lives.

Good: You get a free frozen yogurt. I call it Frogurt.

I got a shiny new iMac a month or so back and I quite like it. OSX still pisses me off and my desk isn't as comfortable as I'd like but I'm making music at home again so that's a big win.

The Frogurt contains Sodium Benzoate!

(that's bad)

I wonder if (when) they'll make quad-core iMacs. I just like cores.

[loic]

my dual core 2 is pretty snappy. its just a pity that osx pisses me off.

It was very nice, but it died.
The Frogurt made me do funny poo poo though.

Good and Bad - Thus Nature balances itself. Hecs debt is pretty sucky, though.

It's like I'm even stephens, except I'm not stephen...
At least I no longer run the risk of being squished by poor drivers.
