Easter weekend

So, this Easter was actually pretty good, all round. Most of the weekend was spent at my grandparents, with Chris & Andrew, killing time with Starcraft and such. And Worms 2. Ahhh. :) Not very productive, and full of way too much chocolate, but lots of fun, and relaxing. We also played a bit of… Read more

Not even a mouse

My mouse is dying. Again. This is about the fourth one in twelve months, and it’s actually a name-brand one (Logitech). Stupid mice. I’ve never had any luck with any mice except the ones that come with Macs. I’ve still got some that are well over a decade old, and they work perfectly. ‘course, they… Read more

Only just, but enough that it wouldn’t start. Rob gave me a jump start and I was off, and luckily the battery’s been good enough since… so obviously… Read more

Dracula’s

Right, so, last night (Saturday) Laz organised a group of people to go to dinner at Dracula’s, a themed restaurant somewhere on or near Swanston Street. I think. Anyway, it was a little pricey ($68 each), but then again, I’ve had more expensive meals that had no entertainment whatsoever (and weren’t as good)… plus, I’m… Read more
