Well im back in Rocky again, been back home for a few weeks and didnt have much chance to add anything to this. My grandfather is going ok, hes around 89 but going ok. Didnt do much while i was at home, just stayed inside and spent some time with my mum and dad and pop. Got a call while i was there from work and i am pleased to announce i have been retrenched :)
I got like 1 months pay and my holiday leave paid out and that was it. So im back in rocky now looking for work. Im trying to rustle up some web work here.
Got my tax return back today, so i went and bought myself a new mobile phone, a flashy nokia 8310.. gee its nice. It was on special till the end of the month so thats cool. Its tiny compared to my old 5110 that i had.
Almost got the VPN thingy for the uni done. Did a bit while i was home and its looking good. I just have to let them know when im done and they will hire me for however long it took to do it, which will be cool.
A friend of mine came back to rocky with me from sydney, he is pretty good at web stuff so im trying to get some work for both of us, it should be ok, i know a few people from working with the other company.
The boss came up here while i was away, i thought he was coming to let all the clients here know that the office was closing, but i found out later that he didnt tell any of them. I was talking to a client and mentioned that i was retrenched and they knew nothing about it, totally weird. Oh well, ill just do the work for them :)
Im looking forward to getting Jaguar (Mac OS 10.2) soon, its getting sent in the mail, should be neat. Ive got my ibook all cleaned out ready for the clean install... also been looking closly at the iPods, man im tempted to buy one. They are soooo neat..
My damn 40gig IBM hardrive has died in the arse as well, piss me off, lost some stuff on it but maganed to restore a lot... so the 40gig maxtor drive my mum bought that didnt work on her machine has come in awfully handy. Also got a new 48x liteon burner while i was down south, burns cds sooo fast!
righto, im going to eat... yum yum
