A study in how not to do it, probably.

nope, not really.

I installed and started playing Morrowind. That took up lots of time. Thanks jarel I didn't like my life anyway.

I caught up on my washing.

I fucked up badly, yet again, and ended up pissing off a friend.

I found out that the Creative Labs website sucks, and the annoying sods don't have basic soundcard drivers available. The only ones you can download are 5mb of _updates_ and they only work if you have existing drivers already installed. Come on fuckwits, what happens if you've lost your CDROM. Bloody muppets. As it happens, other people have said exactly the same thing, and luckily driverguide has what amounts to an iso image of the cd online. Get that tmr from work seeing as its 30Mb (adsl owners can put sock in it right now).

I took the 2CV out for a drive to clear out the engine and recharge the battery. I think I scared a few people too. Good. It still needs a service, one side is running too lean, the other too rich. Damn that I don't know enough about engines to sort it out myself.

Work again tmr, and i can't for the life of me remember what jobs I have open. Probably all the shite ones. Still waiting for my ex-box, by box of cat5, and two wireless base units.
