Other What currently makes your life awesome?

I got back into drawing. It's been a while; I finally have some motivation and inspiration.

 

I can ride with that? Good isn't it.

I've had my first inspirational moment with writing in ages. Happily walking through a corridor at work, passed some automatic doors and it's given me some damn awesome ideas.

 

I might just have to do the same, it's been a few years!

 

MY MOTHERBOARD IS FINALLY COMING HOME!

 

A mate of mine (and ex band mate) just posted this on facebook:


It's him with a German copy of Terrorizer Magazine that features his artwork. He always wanted to get into band-art... SUPER chuffed for him,

 

in working condition?

My new IEMs are making my life awesome because they're revealing a whole heap of things i'd not noticed before while listening to Muse. My last IEMs did exactly the same a few years back, it seems i get bits added to my music each time i upgrade what i'm listening on.

 

This. All the time. I'm looking forward to listening to Muse with an entirely new setup soon!

 

My keycaps from WASD are being shipped

 

They're sending in a new one should it should be in working condition.

Plus I get to play with my Phanteks 140 as well.

 

Old laptop (5 years next month), new SSD. I was running a 320GB WD Scorpio Black in this before and that was a large step up in storage and performance from the crappy 160GB Seafail drive that it shipped with. This is the first Sammy 840 Evo that I've used and I am well impressed with it. It's also finally free of Vista 32 bit, running my old £30 student copy of W7 Home Premium now and going like a brand new machine!

Shipped with the following spec 5 years ago:

2GHz single core Celeron
2GB RAM
160GB 5400 RPM Seafail
Vista Home Basic x86

Now running:

C2D T5750 (2GHz)
4GB RAM
Samsung 840 Evo 250GB SSD
W7 Home Premium x64

I also have an OEM HP battery in the post for it to cure the 5 minute battery life problem. Once that's done it'll be Cheesecake!

It may look every bit its age, but once you boot it up... What a sleeper!

That is all.

 

Sonos is getting a cheaper smaller option. Perfect for placement in my kitchen/office.

I'm so excited, as I've wanted to add a few more points to my system, but a play 3 was overkill.

 

I leave for Texas on the 22nd. Spend a week there, road trip through New Mexico and into Colorado and stay there till the 5th November... It's all for work, I only have to pay for my own expenses, but holy hell I am friggin STOKED!

Also get to see how much of a fuss the American's make of Halloween. Awwwww yeah.

 

Tell your boss you need an assistant and you have someone (me) in mind, all he has to do is pay the travel fare.

 

Hours of battle, and i finally flashed my IBM M1015 with IR firmware to LSI 9211-8i IT firmware => Ubuntu boot no longer hangs (system uses completely different driver now). Now i could upgrade the rest of my 2TB drives .

 

2nd day of the new job, and I no longer want to commit genocide.

 

Just completed a batch if Kinder chocolate and Kraken Rum brownies....Get in my mouth!

 

They've broken you already? I thought you were stronger than that...

 

So jelly.. talking of chocolate, Cadbury and Daim have teamed up on a new bar!

Managed to fix my sound card, myself the idiot set the output to Front ports rather than back... I don't know how I did but, I am glad I can now play music again!

 

Off to London on Thursday to meet an author and long time twitter friend.

Book launch if her second novel :-D
