Geekery

This past weekend Xander and I went to visit our friends Penny and Yuri.  They are housesitting for Yuri’s boss here in Rotterdam and it’s been great having them so close.  They live in Roosendaal, about a 35-40 minute drive from us, so we get together once every 1-2 weeks if we are lucky. The place they are housesitting is like …

This week I’m playing Lord of the Rings Online.  Xander has grown bored with World of Warcraft and bought LOTRO to try something different.   It came with a 7 day free trial for a friend so I installed it on my laptop to arse around with it.   It’s been a long time since I did any gaming of any kind …

Well I never thought I’d ever say this, but…  I miss WoW.  Argh.. shit! This is the 2nd time over the past number of years that I’ve quit gaming.   The last time was after Star Wars Galaxies and before World of Warcraft. I had quit gaming completely for about 10 months and then was lured back by a friend who was …

Today I sold my World of Warcraft account to an old gaming friend.  It’s sort of weird to know that someone else will be playing my characters but at the same time I’m glad to be free of it.   I’ve been much happier since quitting gaming and unloading the account means it’s even less likely of me ever returning. I …

Shit, all my entries lately have been in the Tantrum & Rants lately! I can’t help it though. I’m PMSing like hell and am pissed off at everything around me. The weather is pissing me off. It’s too fucking hot and even now at 8:30am when there’s a cool breeze coming in all I can think is “oh fuck off …

It would appear that while I was in the process of moving some of my old HTML written blogs onto wordpress that I forgot to change the date on one of them and it was uploaded as having been written yesterday. Sorry about that! I’ve been checking this 25peeps website every day. It’s pretty cool because you just see people’s …

I signed up with this new stats counter thingie and it shows where people come from to get to your site. Yesterday I was having a look at it and there is a HUGE amount of people coming here from a site called Digg.com. I have no idea what this is or why people are coming to my site from …

One of the big controversies online at the moment is about Sony’s new PSP ads in Holland. The ads are for the new white PSP that is coming out which is represented by a white woman dressed in white, while the black PSP is represented by… yes you guessed it, a black woman dressed in black. I first found this …

I have a PERIOD KEY! ……………………………………….. No more cutting and pasting! It’s wonderful! How do I have a new period key? It’s one of many new keys on my NEW LAPTOP! I know, this story just keeps getting better and better doesn’t it? It’s a Sony Vaio FJ Series and the things I love about it include: The glossy screen …

Just a quick note to let you all know that I’m doing a load of crap on the site, mainly posting the old archives that I used to write with HTML onto my wordpress blog (gonna take a lonnnnng time!) and fixing all the old links to point to this site. I just wanted to let you know in case …

I added my blog to 25peeps.com, just for shits and giggles. Will be interesting to see how long it takes for me to show up on there, and if I manage to last more than a day. Oh, and click on the photo of the cleavage with the silver chain, it’s pretty funny!
