Already I’m feeling the irresistable pull… Tomorrow, I’m going home. I’m going to see friends again, and life will be full again after too many empty nine-‘til-fives, Mondays-to-Fridays.

Two moments of public lollage today, much to my embarassment. The first, at the train station… Rammstein (in headphones): “Let me see you stripped…” guy next to me starts taking off his jacket And secondly, on the billboard advertising today’s Echo headlines… “Accident shears off bus roof! 414 jobs inside.”...
Programs written: 2 Programs that work: 1 Computers fixed: 0 Short stories written: 1. My latest effort is some kind of back-story for Knife. Here goes: Initiation. Enjoy!
