Testing Testing

*sigh* Just s test after i have been dicking around with this silly thing. At one stage i thought i had frigged it up, lets hope this works

New Blog

Ok, in the next week or so i will be transferring my blog over to www.lifeinthegeeklane.com. Im not too sure which blogging tool im going to use as yet though. Greymatter looks ok and so does b2 and then i guess i could alwys jsut stay with using blogger, but it doesnt have allow comments so probably not. *sigh* decisions decisions.

my very first domain name! *gulp*

I just registered my first domain name - www.lifeinthegeeklane.com
*shrugs* Found a web host that costs $100 per year (AUD) and includes free domain name registration, 200mb storage, unlimited email address, unlimitiied subdomains, ftp, ssh, php, mysql etc etc. Ive always wanted one so i thought bugger it, and did it.

So chances are this blogspot blog will be converted over soon. Whenever i hear back from the site about the order. I can make cool discussion forums and stuff too! woohoo!

Im happy. :D

Friday on my mind...

Friday... oh friday... *sigh*
Sitting at uni again, trying to get my hungry self motivated. Me thinks i will go get some food then maybe my brain will work.

Spent yesterday fiddling with damn video wall stuff, of course - support for macs is bad, so its a matter of sorting through newsgroup posts and trying to apply other unix/linux tips to the mac. As you can probably guess it didnt work, i dont kow enough about the whole unix configure / make process *sigh* get weird errors telling me the source code has butt munch or somthing bleh who knows.

I got another ichat a/v buddy to video chat with! Read about it here. isights are nifty... *sigh* technology rocks.

Still work hunting... gotta go see some chick at the employment place soon. Oh the joys...

righto, bugger this im hungry...

LiveJournal == painful

Just signed up to livejournal so i could read a friends journal, and i have to say its got to be one of the most pain processes ive had to go through. Sure its got a few features that are ok, but the layout and preferences layout totally sucks. Want to edit a particular preference? the only way i could figure was to basiccally click mindlessly until you find it, things you think would be under the journal menu are under the manage menu and things under the manage menu should logically be under the journal menu.... bleh.. im sticking with blogger...
The preferences are one big scrollpage full of check boxes and text fields, whats with that? Surely dividing the preferences up into sections would make the whole thing a LOT easier to use and also navigate around.

Livejournal bites...

Saturday? Was that saturday that just went by?

*yawn* Saturday night... sitting.. typing... yawning... not tired... bored...
Went shopping today wif little melanie, she had to get some stuff for her family at christmas which was cool. As guessed, the shopping place was PACKED full of EVERYONE... *sigh* but thems the breaks. Took a lotto ticket in the 18 million draw.... actually that would have been drawn by now... maybe im a millionaire :P

Got Jedi Knight - Jedi Academy on friday... been playing it... and addicted to it... its sweet running around with a light sabre... bugger using the stupid guns and bombs and shit.. ive got a light sabre! so i will use it!!

Dunno whats on the cards for tomorrow, i REALLY gotta do some PHD stuff... *sigh* Gotta sit down and code some java shite...

Been doing up my resume *again*, think ill apply for a part time job... somthing different and will get me away from having to do damn marking at the uni...

bleh... Should get my america trip (wwdc) refund early next week, thank god... that thing will probably all go straight to paying off my damn credit card...

Helped melanie put a color in her hair! I think i missed my calling as a hair dressor, cause quite frankly i rock!

righto.. time to go see what my beeping MSN window has been saying the last 5 mins while ive been typing...

bleh... bloodtests

Went to the dentist today to see what the go is with my gum bleeding when i brush my teeth. The dude was cool, he is from overseas somewhere but thats another story. He had a looky at my teeth and said they were really good and clean *woohoo or me!*, then he got this 'tool thing' with a small ball on the end and told me that he was gunna run it around on the gum near my teeth. So he did this with each tooth and they all started bleeding! Looked damn aweful but he said it was cool. He explained the differnet types of gum diseases and stuff and said he didnt think i had one cause usually it only happens with badly cleaned teeth. So he was a bit confused as to why it was happening. So he sent me off to get a bloodtest to check everything out. he says that sometimes when your getting over and illness or somthing that your gums will bleed like that and stuff. So off i went and got a blood test. Gotta wait now for them to call me back.

Seems weird... Like he said, he didnt think i have some gum disease cause my teeth are well looked after... *shrugs* wait and see...

On the other side of things, the Apple Paris keynote is on today! 6pm Australia time!. Ive found a URL to a webcst so i might hang out at uni and watch it. By the soud of the rumor sites its going to be a good one with possible laptop and other updates!..

I also got the latest build of panther and it is slick as! very very nice, and speedy...

righto, im done blogging... im going to play with panther some more! :)
