Well, here we are in the middle of our heat wave.  Oh, joy.

I try not to go outside too often because it's just so uncomfortable out there.  The air conditioner is certainly earning its keep, though we can't keep it on all the time.  I'm not looking forward to the electricity bill!

I'm also getting a bit sick of the nights when the house is so hot ( Read more... )

I am not looking forward to the coming week, weather wise!

See the forecast:

We're off to a party to celebrate the new year with some friends.  See you next year! :) :) :)

I couldn't let this opportunity go by without marking the time and date! It only happens once in a century. I also like symmetry!

I finished in about 40 minutes! I'll know for sure on Monday when the official times are posted. I did the same distance on a walk yesterday at 39 minutes. There are a lot of people here. There are over 40,000 involved in all categories. There is a blimp and helicopters in the sky Very busy!

I'm on the bus on the way to my 4 km walk for charity. Some of my workmates are also walking this distance. Others are walking / running 12 km. One other is running the Marathon! It starts in about 15 minutes.

I'll check in when I finish

If there are any spelling mistakes it' because I don't have my glasses with me!

I can't load LJ on my computer. I keep getting messages on both my home and work computers saying that it can't be connected.

However, I can check my friends posts on my mobile without any problem!

I would have assumed that if there had been a DDOS attack, I wouldn't have been able to connect by any means.

When I logged into LJ this morning, I found that the layout had reverted to default.  I checked other people's journals and theirs were OK..  What the...?

Oh, well, since I had to re-do it, I decided to change the layout style when I got home tonight.  So this is my "Lechenaultia Blue" style - you might want to put on your sunglasses! :)

For those who don't watch LJ Maintenance, they have made a post showing a world map of the locations of IP addresses involved in the recent DDoS attacks.  It's very widespread.  Thankfully there aren't any in Australia!

If anyone wants to check to see if their IP address is listed, check this link:  http://community.livejournal.com/lj_maintenance/
