My gripe of this month: making a new years resolution not to go out this year in hopes of finding my brain. Then, remembering that with all the briliant gigs that happen in Melbourne every weekend, the task is physically impossible.
Anyone know where I can find some will power?
One week down, only 51 to go.

Passing out on a friends couch at 3, only to be slapped awake at 5:30 to help her find her rat.
She leaves it on a table to run around, and forgets about it. The fucking thing jumps off the table and hides. 7:30 rolls around, and we find the little turd sleeping under the washing machine.
Had a really terrible breakfast at Nova this afternoon. Atomica was closed. Thing is, Nova's breakfasts are normally pretty good.

Still no job and running on almost no funds
Plus I've had so much spare time on my hands I've breached the acceptable use policy on my net connection (downloaded 20 Gig in 2 weeks) and now my broadband has been rate limited to a speed similar to dialup. I got another 2 weeks of ghey internet speed until they set it back to normal.

I got the dreaded blue screen last Saturday
And it doesn't want to fix. I think I need a whole new harddrive. And this whole issue has brought about issues with a housemate. It's all a bit miserable
