i have a shadow

  ^{fish eater}

today we learned an old lesson in a new form. the old lesson "always check that the computer's plugged in first" simply wasn't flexible enough. first check that the damned thing exists.

the day began with a short mission in tel aviv, delayed slightly by nystire's train - allegedly the train driver stopped for a cup of coffee.

it was a quiet, slow day and we left the base around 6.30pm. i did a quick shopping on the way home, just handled a shitload of laundry, and am now planning a) to go to bed or b) to go to the cocktail room.

and i'm sad and angry that the geezer snuffed it.
