Boring Life Catchup Post

Here are some things I've been doing instead of blogging:

Working Work was exceptionally hectic for a while there. Fortunately, it's all calmed down a bit now, and I've got a bit of my life back.

Playing with Flock Basically a very-highly customized verison of Firefox, I tried it when the first release was made public, thought it looked kinda interesting, but binned it because, frankly, it didn't work. Still, it was early days and it showed a lot of promise, so a couple of weeks ago I thought I'd check it out again. It definitely seems a lot more stable, now, and I'm probably using it and vanilla Firefox about 50/50. I like that it's got del.icio.us support built in, and I'm writing this using it's blog editor. I'll be cutting and pasting it into Notepad before hitting "publish", mind.* It's still a wee bit flakey, but it's getting better all the time.

Rolling up the world We got We Love Katamari the other day. I'm told it's not as good as the original, but as that was never released in the UK, and my PS2 isn't chipped, it'll do nicely. So much fun, even the Mrs can be persuaded to have a go. If the original is genuinely better I'm probably best not playing it in case I damage myself.

Trying to write Not very successfully.

Sleeping Very successfully.

Tomorrow we are off to Manchester for the weekend. While there, we will be seeing Calexico and Iron and Wine, who are both excellent, but mostly I'm just looking forward to being in a different place for a while, and I've never been to Manchester before. Hardly exotic, but any change of scenery is good.



Update - It did publish! It bombed immediately afterward, but it did publish.
