Oh yes, I also have a shiny new Gmail account, thanks to fuzzie! Not that I suspect I’ll use it much, as it brings my total email address count up to 5. (6 if you include the address I use to log into MSN).

Awesome…it’s meant to get down to 7° tonight! Cold weather plus fucking plus.

Also, the new staff discount price list has been posted at work. 1 AirPort Express base station, $166.10. Putting my order in tomorrow! (They’re not actually meant to arrive until like the 10th of next month, but hey!).

We had “Managing customer complaints” training yesterday and today. Quite a bit of it was actually what we do already (hear the customer out first, let them vent, then probing/troubleshooting, etc), but there was some quite interesting stuff about different behavioural styles. I’ll try to remember to bring it home tomorrow evening and post it.

And now on a totally different optic, it’s time for that LJ comments stats thingy!

What kind of disease are you?

VirtualWolf:

VirtualWolf infection produces a strange imbalance in the cochlea, causing subject to fall unless walking on hands.
To cure VirtualWolf, bathe in the blood of your enemies.

Name?

Bow down before the power of SATAN! \m/ Or something.

Wow. I was just looking at the extended info on my LJ userinfo page, and realised my two-year LJ anniversary was on the 5th of this month. 🙂 I can’t believe it’s gone that fast.

200 journal entries, 1068 comments posted, 732 received.

And I’m very near 2000 posts on the Ars Technica forums, and I registered there on the 9th of March 2001. Over three years ago! Times flies when you’re having fun. 🙂

Wow, that was a bit of excitement! Dad came into my room and said to come and have a look at the smoke. Went out onto our back deck, which looks out onto the valley, and there was quite a lot of smoke…we couldn’t even see the other hills. There was a sound of fire truck sirens in the distance, which seemed to be getting closer. And closer…and closer…

It’s quite amazing how much a smoky night can carry lights…the whole valley was just about lit up from the lights from the fire trucks. They turned into the street just down from ours, but ended up going right down to the end of it, fortunately (we’re about half-way up the street). We’re not sure, but it certainly looked (and smelt) like it was a house that was on fire, rather than just bush. We could see the flames from the street, but the firefighters put it out in fairly short order. I’m sure we’ll read all about it in tomorrow’s paper!

Word. Last night was quite fun. 🙂 We went down to Brooky pub, had lots of drinks and sent lots of random drunk SMSs, and had a big long rambling conversation with gigglznwrigglz after we got kicked out, through the taxi ride to my friend’s place, and for another like hour and a quarter/hour and a half after that. 🙂

Woo! Just snagged Otep’s latest album.

And our LAN yesterday/last night rocked. 🙂 We played lots and lots of Warcraft III on all these funky maps. In fact, we didn’t actually play /any/ standard WC3.
