I can now add "has dislocated something" to my application form for my Ph.D in Life Skills, managing to whack my finger playing netball. It hurt some, but not as much as I would have thought it should, nor has it hurt to much since. I assume this means that I didn't dislocate it "badly" although I'm not sure how much more dislocated it could have been and not have entered the "ripped off" zone. It certainly was at an odd angle, and I was a worried I had broken it again, it being the finger I broke playing soccer last year. However it wasn't so that is good.
In othernews the internet is cool for it has made finding a house in Hanmer very easy. If anyone wants to come with Si, Des, Sara, Will and I to go Geocaching in Hanmer during labour weekend they should organise themselves a house like ours and join the party. Note: Party not supplied, although Si did promise to bring his "trousers." Yes, geocaching is geeky.
Speaking of geeky :) Check out google on the SMS front. Dear God, they will devour us all. To define a word just type "define word" and send to 46645 and they'll text back the info. (plus a bunch of normal queries and white pages, and location details, but I think define is most useful to me) Anywho, I doubt it works here, although I can't find the appropriate zone code for it anyway, but when it does work here - cool.
Make sense of that sentence? Who me?
I have much I mean to say, but unlike previously I no longer spend 8+ hours at school with a computer and nothing else to do but blog. Now I spend the time sitting in front of a computer with stuff to do. So my time to blog has decreased. Still, I'm not Dan Mr "I'll go off and join the army/seals/Cobra/Imperial Guard and not tell anyone about it ever."
Yeah.
Posted by luther at October 8, 2004 05:16 PM | TrackBackSitting in front of a computer and having work to do, I can relate to. Makes blogging less frequent. However, James leaving the country for a couple of days makes blogging more frequent. This is good. But no James is bad. Can't win them all.
Geocaching in Hanmer would be WAY more fun than geocaching in Canberra. We went through long (shoulder high) grass and I kept wondering about snakes, because they have Brown Snakes here, which are prettydamnpoisonous and I was bit scaredypants. We all survived though, which is always nice. We did one in the botanic gardens and a buggy one around the Entomology Dept of CSIRO. McGowan had a story about doing one out in the countryside around Canberra and accidentally standing (without noticing) on an ants’ nest and having many little bitey things swarm up his ankle.
If I were a geocacher, I would be a geocacher in New Zealand. Snakes and ants are a giant suck.
Google SMS does not work from NZ. Unless you txt someone in the US and ask them nicely. Also, party at 154 Stanmore Rd tomorrow (Sat) night.
Posted by: tark on October 8, 2004 10:29 PMEnd of an era, you know. 15 years and they're going to bulldoze it down. So you should come and if you don't like it you can just go but you won't like it -- uh -- you will like is what I mean.
Metal.
