it's a bit messy

i've been sick for a week, and i'm not quite fully recovered. i woke up about 3am shivering and sweating, checked my temperature and found it to have returned to a warm and cozy 35.5.

i look around at my room - what feels like my neglected life - in horror, knowing that there's a million things to tidy up and sort out and that tomorrow it's back to business as usual, even if i'm not 100% yet.

i made it for blood tests this morning, and found out that i would've made it yesterday, too. they operate until half past ten. the girl who stuck me did so aways to the side of my arm, which confused me greatly. never seen that before.

i mean, i guess she could stick me just about anywhere to draw blood, no?

the obliquely referred to mistake correction story came to a successful conclusion afterwards :)
in addition, i was treated to a quick review of starcraft - the board game, which sounds really good.

i remembered what i loved about pick of destiny yesterday - ben stiller was absolutely brilliant! guitar center guy is a character that definitely needs his own feature :)

i took on the mantle of compound suffering in going to the city council to be bled for municipal tax, fight with the elderly and get my resident's card replaced. then i did some shopping (the whole roast chicken was good, the apples are good, the doughnuts are good... pity the damn carrots are gross) before settling in to watch house of 1000 corpses.

house of 1000 corpses is an absolutely wonderful movie - it just bumped the cell down my favourites list of most aesthetic and artistically disturbing movies. great fun!

this - this is just beautiful. *sniff*
xkcd is almost always great, but this is how *i* feel when hit with a segfault. i now feel untold compassion for my executable.
