    All those songs you’ve been downloading off bearshare and the like? Yeah, you might not want to be sharing them with last.fm. Unfortunately, if you download any of their software with which to listen to that music, that’s exactly what you’re doing; telling last.fm and users what you’re listening … Read the rest

  • For those of you curious about my unwillingness to join LJ Idol.

    Or, if you’d prefer, why it is I’ve developed an alergy to drama. Someone who used to be on this here friends page decided earlier this evening she’d like to relapse into her teenage years, and go on a wining spree over how she traumatized herself over writing an entry … Read the rest

  • Purolator, we need to talk.

    ,

    You have my package on your local delivery vehicle as of 8:13 this morning. I *know* it doesn’t take 3+ hours to get from your depot downtown. So why, pray tell, are you now taking nearly 4 to do so? I would be slightly irritated had my router actually gone … Read the rest

  • Hey, landlord? RBC? Have a clue.

    Every 3-4 months or so, my land lord or maybe the super intendant, one of the two, comes around and does their quarterly inspections of the fire alarm system.

  • This post took way too damn long.

    , , , , , ,

    Yes, I know, I should have posted forever ago. Deal with it. Anyway, things have been steadily doing that thing where they both calm down and pick up at the exact same time over the past week or so. The visit with jessica (Samari76) ended as wonderfully as … Read the rest

  • PSA:

    ,

    The real post is coming when I get home. For now, advanced warning. Things are happening at the moment. Pissed off would probably be the most child friendly way to describe my state of mind. Do not email unless you want a snipped reply. Do not IM, as I’m still … Read the rest
