Today I got woken up by a mate complaining he couldn't get on the internet, was I having problems, and could I fix it since no one who worked there would answer a phone, and I used to work there.

I staggered over to the computer, attempted to remember the commands I needed to check what was going on, identified the problem, then realised I had no recollection of how to fix it. I just reset the password and that fixed it. Buggered if I know what it was.

Oh, I was supposed to be going to look at a RAS with him today too, but he couldn't be bothered, which suited me. I didn't really see the point of going all that way to look at a RAS, "ooh, look, a RAS. Can we go now?" basically.

A short while later I recieved an sms from my precision driving mate, "can you bring your xp cd around, and I need to go to the shops" which roughly translates to "come around and spend hours installing xp on my machine, and then follow me to the shops and carry the stuff I buy back, because I'm too cool to wear a backpack when I ride my bike, and I don't have a bag rack".

So I went, spent hours installing xp and getting it working. We didn't end up going to the shops, or to see Lord of the Rings like was planned, too many people are seeing it and it keeps selling out. might go tomorrow.

After that I left, and went to the barbeque I had been invited to, that was good, good food, a couple of beers, and a bit of entertainment watching Men In Black 2.

I left from there, back to see my other mate at the club. I refused to pay $11 to go into the nightclub, and listen to crappy top 40 music, so I entertained myself downstairs playing the pokies, won $20, so that wasn't too bad. Went for a wander around, and bumped into a few other mates, sat and had a few drinks and laughs with them, they all decided to go up to the nightclub, and I came home.

They might have been able to talk me into going into the nightclub normally (especially since I won that $20), every now and then I don't mind getting up and making a dick of myself on the dancefloor, but I'm feeling really seedy after my drinking effort yesterday, and I knew any really strenous activity like dancing would just push me over the edge and leave me spewing.

So now I'm home, planning to watch a few hours of telly before sleeping until someone wakes me up again.
