Well, I now have some sort of part time job, that will probably turn into full time at Tim Horton’s. That’ll be alright, I need the money. I start on thursday with a training session. On an unrelated note, grab the track Glad Girls by Guided by Voices, it’s a good song.

You know the world is starting to hitt hard times when the Russians are facing a vodka shortage and the Irish close down a guinness factory.

I just spent the last hour or two reorganizing my room. Not so much that I didn’t like the previous setup, it was that the desk area was prone to glare from the window. Hopefully, this setup won’t yield as much. Other than that I didn’t really accomplish much today.

I’ve been waiting for a while for someone to finish up their conform image, so I could launch the new design and new series. I got fed up with waiting and did the second image myself. I just launched the redesigned site, go check it out.

I finished reading microserfs by douglas coupland this evening. I thought it was a great book, especially in light of the fact that I’m headed off into the same world that these people belong to. The novel is essentially the story of a couple computer programmers trying to find lives beyond work. The story is told by a young geek named dan in the form of a journal on his computer. I thought it was well written and I had trouble putting it down. Welcome to the world of geek culture, maybe i liked the book because I can relate to parts of it.

For some reason or another I never did mention Memento. It was a really good movie, i recommend you see it, if you haven’t already. It’s somewhat difficult to wrap your head around and as soon as it’s finished you’ll attempt to poke holes in the plot. I watched the movie with a couple friends and we started pointing out various things afterwards, but people would bring up another point and invalidate the supposed plot hole. At any rate, i really enjoyed it.
