and what do I do? I sign online. I was thinking about it and it quite simply boils down to a change of atmosphere. I’m sitting on my couch and I’m working on my computer and it just makes all the difference in the world.
So, I’m pretty pissed off with myself. A number of the problems we found today were my fault. They were also the problems that tipped the scales into delaying. I’m annoyed that I managed to miss them and I’m very annoyed that the people paid to look for them missed them. All were simple fixes and they are now fixed, but that is beside the point. I didn’t get much sleep last night (we’ll come to that in a moment) and I wasn’t feeling 100% all day so that just added to it all. All of the changes were sorted just after sevenish and the US agreed to build for us on the spot. So I stayed and stayed. Just after nine, I was told it would be another 3 hours. That put pay to my staying. Seen as I was the only one left at that stage, it can’t have been that important…or it could simply be that I should be a little more realistic and accept we have slipped.
So, last night I was having some trouble sleeping. It was pretty late at this stage, going on two am I guess. I suddenly realised I was cold. It wasn’t cold, it hasn’t been for a while. It was just me. It was kinda freaky. It passed after about 15 minutes but for that time I just couldn’t get warm even though I knew it wasn’t cold and I could feel the warmth from the duvet.
XP is rocking my world. My pc is running so much smoother than it was. As soon as I can get office installed again it should all be good. Then in a couple of weeks I’ll put Jaguar on my Mac and get to play with that. I’ve abused the poor thing a lot over the past few months and its not holding up all that well. Worth noting it has handled fifty plus delete and reinstalls, and far better than Windows ever would.
