Seems like weirDo has fixed the web server to allow machine names to be passed, so I can move my counter back to Theochem..
Yay!
Man, this day has been a bit longer than anticipated.. Anyway, last night, HNT gave me a copy of Quake 3 and wanted me to play (perhaps so that I'd get my butt kicked). Well, I installed the game and although the game was fairly smooth, the connection I had was pretty crappy. Either the cable I'm using is crap, or something's wrong with the network setup I had. I'll have to look into it later.
This morning, I got up at a good time and was ready to go to school when there was this phone call. It was for HNT in regards to the phone. First of all, why do they bother calling during the day when most people work from nine to five? I think it's kinda silly for telemarketers and companies trying to contact people via phone to call houses during the daytime since there's a good chance nobody would be home (especially in this day in age where everybody works..). I dunno, I wouldn't want them to call at night though, after a day of garbage, I wouldn't want to talk on the phone with some annoying marketing salesperson while trying to make dinner. The best solution is to not have a phone. That should solve that problem.
The water coming from our fountain (and the toilet and urinal) came out a rather disgusting rusty orange. People drinking out of the fountain wouldn't notice since it's pretty weak, but anybody in the washroom would immediately notice the odd murky colour of the water in the bowl. Eww. I called up plant ops about the problem and they told me that there was work done in the area and that things would be fine after flushing for a while. What the heck? Why didn't they tell us beforehand? Quite a number of people use that fountain, and there was no warning. The exact same thing happened last year as well, but that time they didn't admit to knowing about the water problem. That's quite annoying.
Because of our tainted water supply, I haven't been drinking from the fountain as much as I normally do. I'm feeling a little dehydrated now. I'll probably attach a hose to the faucet when I get home. Quick fixes are always the best.
AgentP came by today. Wanted to do the signature thing before I forgot. He also mentioned that FlyingS showed him this page! Wow! Apparently FlyingS knew about this journal thing for a while now, but AgentP did not. He was quite impressed, and I asked him why he hasn't been updating his page. I was reassured that he'll be back to working on his Journal "soon". Whatever, I'll believe it when I see it!
While he was in my office, I gave him a couple of math problems to think about, he was quite gung ho about it, although didn't solve anything in the end. The questions were quite tough though, and neither of us have done contest style math problems in years. While he was here, he took my pen and started drawing on his hand. I asked him what the heck he was doing, and he told me:
"I'm tracing my veins."
Oh.. kay.. He realized how silly an answer that was and started to rub off the ink.
Quick update: It seems as if Laz has done his normal daily update, but the news of the day is that MJO has also gotten up an update! Wow.. and so soon too (as he also mentions in his entry). Anyhoo, check them out when you have the time.
Anyway, I'm feeling tired, because I've been working on the script for the past few hours. I think I'm done though! Whoo hoo! You can check it out if you want, but I'm not sure if it's completely idiot-proofed yet. Of course, that's what the internet is for right? A million monkeys on a million keyboards.. you'd think it'd be good for something?
Well, I plan to use that script in place of my calendar and journal scripts (since you wouldn't have to load up the entire month to see a single entry). What do you guys think? I like the idea of adding comments like Laz's page, but I've got bigger fish to fry ATM.. Too much to do, and so little will..
Speaking of will, I think my stomach has a will of it's own. "I want food." it says. I guess I should comply. Tomorrow then.
