Errr
Yeah, soooo, I won at Xlan, I'm going to Singapore tomorrow, Seattle sometime later this year, and I had a birthday sometime a while back which I practically forgot about. Ummm, yeah. Maybe I'll write about it later, probably not. SINGAPORE! -
I'd meant to do this earlier...
XLan is this weekend. It just occurred to me that selina_fox will probably be in Auckland or something, and yet I haven't even packed or printed a map of where the hell I'm going ( Read more... ) -

Do honest accidents ever incur karmic backlash? -
I love the smell of flux in the morning... smells like... soldering.
I went for an interview yesterday, over at an R&D company (it's a small place, they do R&D, and production and sales... sooo, pretty much the whole product cycle) which is sort of out in the wops. Currently they make a little gizmo that diagnoses faults in Japanese cars, it's pretty neat. Initially I'll be doing production - electronics assembly, ( Read more... ) -
Rodent genocide. Ew.
