Trying to figure out the meaning of life is like an ant trying to comprehend human nature as the foot comes down. — Jim Allison

Let this be my official notice that when I die I want to be cremated and my ashes put into an urn-sized police box.
Allons-y!

Did you know I’ve lived (if you count the last time I lived in Abbotsford) next to an activity centre with a pool for over a year, and never went in once? Yeah.
So in an attempt to better myself, confidence-wise regarding swimming (which I suck at), and getting in better shape, off I go tonight! I’ll try to do this after work on my free nights, since I have nothing better to do.

Dear work,
You make so many demands on my time. You are sometimes long and hard, and you exhaust me. Some days I just don’t even want to get out of bed because of you.
Still, without you my kids wouldn’t be able to live. My life would really kind of suck. I’m better off with you than without you.
Also, I’m using work as a metaphor for my penis.
Sincerely, Jim

My original power supply had a 4-pin square connector, like this, that fit into a 4-pin receptor on the motherboard. Apparently it’s called an ATX-12V connector:
My new power supply didn’t have one of those, so when I tried to power on the computer it didn’t POST. No video at all.
I thought that my motherboard was too old, so went searching around for an adapter. The 2 computer stores I went to were both confused that my brand-new power supply didn’t have one of those. Uh-oh, I thought…have I missed something?
Yep. There was an 8-pin connector coming right off the PSU and I wondered what it was for (thought it was for newer boards) and it looked like this:
Except mine could be split into two 4-pin connectors, one of which fit nicely into the ATX-12V port on my motherboard. I’m up and running!
Next up: the new video card!

Last night’s dream was the emotional equivalent of kicking a man while he’s down — no, not enough — kicking him in the nuts while he’s down.
So screw you, subconscious, and the Id you rode in on!

Geoffrey and Emily went out to play with some girls in the centre of the complex. Geoffrey was told boys weren’t allowed and Emily was told only 5 years old or older allowed.
The irony was that the girls were oriental and East Indian.
