For those of you that are enjoying the Nemi cartoon in the Metro paper, go here to get access to all the old/new ones, http://www.metro.co.uk/img/pix/.
AFAIK, there's no archive on the site but this directory listing is about the same. Do a quick find for "Nemi" to get started.

Computer Bits
Managed to finally get around to enabling the front panel USB ports & audio on my PC. Put it off for a good while because they're fiddly seperate connectors instead of a block. Tested both USB ports & earphones, will test microphone some other time.
Also removed modem as it's redundant now because of the wireless.
Next exercise is to try to move the router upstairs again. Hopefully this time things won't crap out on me. After that, I'll setup MAC filtering on the router, again something I've been meaning to retry.

What Supernatural Monster Am I?
You are a Demon! You like to sit around all
eternity in the pits of hell, torturing the
souls of those who sinned during life. You
also like to play with fire, but you hate that
bastard Jesus!

Na Na Ni Ni Nu Nu
Just back from edit:Long Stone with gang. Great to see gothicfurby out, hope it didn't take too much out of her.
gothicfurby is DJing this Saturday which I'll probably miss. She'll kick ass!
New Zen Micro is working out great but it is tricky being selective with music but I have a plan, a cunning plan.

More CDs & Stuff...
Headed over to see gothicfurby today but when I phoned I got alan_ie who said she was still asleep so I decided to let her rest & wander about town. Popped into Tower in Eason's & bought more CDs:
Bauhaus - Burning From The Inside
Bauhaus - The Sky's Gone Out
The Cure - Disintegration
Joy Division = Closer
Siouxsie & The Banshees - Peepshow
The Smiths - Singles
All for only €50 as it was 3 CDs for €25.
On the other end of the shopping scale, I went into Peat's & bought a black Creative Zen Micro. I know the Micro Photo is on the way but that facility doesn't interest me & more accessories are being developed just for the Zen Micro.
Finally, bought a nice 5 pointed star jewelery box from Visuals for lady_bastet cause I loves her so

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Weeping Song

All went pretty well but people sat down for a bit hence I tried to up the tempo at the end. Had 2 CDs jumbled at the start but still played decent track. Was a bit more nervous than first time, think the drink helped relax me.
Biggest news of all, got my job with AMT-Sybex. As with last interview, they're a very friendly bunch & have allowed me to start after Whitby. AFAIK, I will be working with Maggie which should be fun. Good to have a familiar face. They have a few months of training & I will do my utmost soak it all up.

Today I...
I went down to lodge my redundancy cheque & 2 cheques for my mum. No bother there, just a bit of a queue. Checked on pass machine of all was ok & it was.
Then in, order to keep things moving, I headed down to the social services office to setup claiming Unemployment Benefit. Lesson one learned, blend in with the natives. I was only just in the door & two travelers (must be polite) started giving me verbals. Wasn't bothered as I was going to the other end of the room. But they followed me & proceeded to give me the Spanish Inquisition about this & that. Just gave them flippant answers & was called up in about 5 minutes. I have a few bits of paperwork to gather up & get my P45 from ESB & then that'll be out of the way.
Now on to prep for Wednesday's interview...

Yawn
So this is it, first day out of work. Don't worry not going to make a habit of it (I hope). Still it's nice to be able to chill out for a bit.
Gonna head down to the village & lodge my redundancy cheque which will tide me over for some time. Have a few other things to get sorted including preparation for my interview on Wednesday.

Quiet Weekend
Didn't do much this weekend as lady_bastet is still not back to full strength. We headed into town on Saturday for a short wander around. Bought some CDs:
Combichrist - Everybody Hates You
Velvet Acid Christ - Fun With Knives
Gothic Rock Volume 1
Projekt: Gothic
The Gothic Rock & Projekt: Gothic collections were only €7 so I figured, what the hell!
Bought lady_bastet a lovely broach but I'll leave her to fill you in on that.
Did nowt on Sunday but watch TV & listen to my new CDs on the notebook.
