I got Gears of Wars 2 in the mail this morning and so far it’s pretty fun. It’s really just Gears of War but with a few extra guns, some light graphics improvements and a new story. I think there’s a lot of multiplayer improvements but I doubt I’ll play that much. I’m looking forward [...]
Barack Obama was just elected President of the United States of America.
His acceptance speech was pretty good, he even mentioned the gays before the straighties.
A couple of people have given me “advice” warning that it could still be years before Obama invokes equal rights.I’m well aware of that, part of why I kinda hoped [...]
Well tomorrow’s the day. My future is decided. Do I move to Seattle or do I stay in Scotland? If Obama wins then hopefully within a year or two I can move to Seattle. If McCain wins then within a year or two Tim will be moving here.
God I hope Obama wins.

So I heard from Tim and he’s mostly fine, just a sprained wrist and fractured ankle. He’s off work till Monday which is good, though he’s going a bit stir crazy cos he can’t play most of his games which he isn’t happy about.
I can’t believe that tomorrow is the first of November, that’s just [...]
I’m on the train into town at the moment to get Ross a birthday present since it’s his birthday today. Apparently he got a DS lite for his birthday so I’ll prolly get him a game for that.
I’m also gonna try and get some Christmas shopping started so I know how much money I [...]
I got Snow Patol’s new album this week and I’m really liking it. It’s not much of an evolution from Eyes Open but there are a few songs that have a very new sound to them that I like.
I’m glad it turned out good cos I was a bit nervous it wouldn’t after I was [...]
I’m off work for two consecutive days this week, the first time that’s happened since I went back to work. It’s like a little mini holiday. I went into town this afternoon to meet Chris for coffee. I went in an hour and a half early and had some lunch and a read of one [...]
I got a call from the HR manager of the Apple Store on Buchanan Street yesterday afternoon. They’re recruiting for the store and he wanted to ask me a couple questions. Unfortunately I missed the call and then I was working all day yesterday and then again this morning so when I finished at 2 [...]
Since it’s looking more and more unlikely that I’m gonna be able to get the time off that I want from work at Christmas I said to Tim that maybe he shouldn’t come.
It’s gonna cost him like £700 just to get here at Christmas and then on top of that there’ll be traveling expenses [...]
Ian Blair finally resigned from his position yesterday, three years and seven bullets after he should’ve. How he managed to hang on this long is beyond me.
I got paid today and transferred £50 across to my savings, I figure that’s a better idea than waiting to see how much I have left at the end [...]
