Well that went about as smoothly as ever. Hah! And I just found out something I didn't know before. Illian has a 100base card. One step in the upgrade bouncing and I have been discussing already there. Yeah! (That, and it's a moral boost to know that the company I work for ain't skimping or cutting any corners on such things. How cool.)

Ok, March 1st. Yes, it's that time. New Year's resolution progress check. If a concept so pointy-haired as a progress check bores you, read something else dammit! :)

I'm going through this quick, since I would like to get some sleep in the near future. The nearer the better.

• find a real job

  What needs be said? 100%

• buy a new desktop PC

  What was it last time, two? Still there. 2%

• find a girlfriend

  Whatever. I'll get around to it. 0%

• find more avenues other than the Internet to channel my self expression

  Did I say that? Naw. That wasn't me. Well, maybe it was. Anyway... 0% Scratch that. 1% That's better.

• obtain lodging of my own

  Too soon for that. There are, after all, 10 more months. I am thinking about it though. More each day I'm around here, in fact. 0%

• honest to myself

  Well, I said last time that there's really no way for me to make a truly accurate assessment. However, I don't know of anyone else who could do a better job. Do you? Dumb question. Ah... I'll just pull a number out of my ass. How's that for honesty? 73%

And THAT my friends, is what we call UDP style typing. And THAT is also why I don't do it very often. And it's also why they don't call it UDP/IP. If every telnet session looked like that... Iiiiiiiiii cringed. I was hoping. we could heal

To bed with me, before any more insanity is inflicted on these poor readers.
