I thought it was about time I updated my userpic.

Still no computer, so I had to use the LJ icon maker, hence why it's got so much blur (no Photoshop on this computer).

Taken the day after my first gig with Nevetherym, at a cafe in Wagga Wagga.

So, on top of my motherboard deciding not to work, both my hard drives have decided to fail at once.

That's all my photos, music, and other file and data lost, forever. I am so fucking pissed off now, I had to leave the room to stop myself from punching the computer. Again.

It seems that my motherboard has died (I fucking hate computers), and I'm going to have to buy a new one.

Do they normally come with that heat transfer sticker/gel thing that goes between the processor and the board, or do you have to get that seperately?

I can't remember whether it came with the processor or the board last time.

Some of them, of course, are just aspirational targets which is code for ( Read more... )

Awesome band. Aussie funk/soul/hip hop blend.

Playing a free gig this Saturday night, in Sydney.

I want to go, but would prefer not to be alone (but I will, if I have to).

It's on at the Macquarie Boutique Hotel, on Wentworth Ave, Sydney.

There's 3 seats in my car available (middle seatbelt is playing silly buggers), if you can get to Gosford.
