If you don't like it, you can do lewd things in front of it to spite Microsoft who will obviously be watching.

 

Or you can shout "Xbox, fuck off" at it all day and see if it RRODs itself.

I'll just hook the PS4 to the HDMI pass-through and teach it the command "XBOX PLAYSTATION".

 

Totally forgot about the camera...kind of put off again.

How could you forget its USP?

Anyway good stuff...umm. Rest of the week off!

 

Plus since deciding not to leave work, I've had a lot of people be complementary about how awesome I am. I should quit more often! Clearly twice isn't enough. Wonder if I can beat my record at Game (I quit there three times).

All work related; been training my replacement (bimbo barbie who everyone in the office stares at - she can't do the job very efficiently. Boss picked up on the vibes and asked me to write up a How-To guide for the job, essentially for the potential replacement for if/when she leaves/is fired. Boss loves my english-degree-related-skillz and asks me to amend his son's cover letter. Boss points earned.

 

Started my own training for me new job - lots of fiddly things to remember - today and yesterday felt like they lasted an hour. The day goes by really quick, which is great. Work is just generally... going really well! End of this month I'll be on the new pay, and can start looking at moving out!

 

... Yeah! Not really exciting. Since I dropped my 50 hour weeks I've done 9-5 but been out pretty much every evening, so I've not had much spare time. Feel like I need to focus on seeing friends and keeping the networking alive.

It IS exciting, because everything is going really well for you, especially after the worries you had earlier this month (time flies me by, was it a more ago?).

Submitted my masters dissertation on wednesday lunchtime and so I'm now officially finished as a masters student :yay: Actually quite happy with the final write-up. Have my fingers crossed for a First on it. Definitely deserving of it given how much of it I had to do on my own with little help from my Supervisor.

 

Now for a couple of weeks of nothing but chilling out and looking for flats before I start up my PhD in September.

I find the same although I'm generally busy with friends.

 

This week was pretty typical.

 

Monday - Did some website work

Tuesday - Football, leave straight after work home late

Wednesday - 5s then dinner with Ali

Thursday - Tennis, website work

Friday - Football

 

I tend to find that there's very little time to just lounge about, watch tv or read a book. Even if you're just gyming it by the time you'rehome and have had dinner its 9! HOwever, I do like being busy so its good.

Part of the reason I went part-time. Doing everything I need to do on full-time just wasn't working out :heh:

What you guys should do is move away from your home town and any family you have, then have kids, be too cheap to get babysitters and ... ta da! ... loads of free time every night after the kids go to bed at 8pm, and you're tied to the house.

Whelp I've certainly got the 'move away from your home town and any family you have' bit down.

 

I'm now poor and have no time to myself due to work. Does that count?

 

:indeed:

What kind of music?

 

I bet it's thrash-classical.

 

I wish. It's just fairly bad electronic whatever the fuck.
