Steady

So, leaving tomorrow. What to write about that, if anything... Well, as long as the joviall belittlement of me is kept to a minimum it`ll be quite enjoyable. Harpers have stopped doing the "Links" section, so no rerun of the parallelizations of expression afforded me on my previous ride on the train. Oh well, i can live with that. Besides, i acted like way to much of a junkie when it came to those links anyway.
Anyway, it should be an entertaining ride, at least for as long as the booxs, podcasts and lectures last. And i`ll find something to do, surely, even though i`l be pretty tired by the time we reach Drammen.

We are now going to see how xubuntu likes virtualbox. Hurry slowly, ever so slowly. Should be fun to have a focus besides the daily media-frenzy though. The question is if i should take further steps to minimize my media-feed routine. It seems like a passably good idea, but then i would have to allot myself a timeslot for keeping up with the wondrous distraction that is my inbox. Well jolly good luck to me on that.

Seriously. Gotcha! At times i really do miss the more intense semi-controllable hallucinatory landscapes. The Flesland Flyplass Dialup Ezperience was an eerie classic, remarkably painful an experience as well, for being instantiated with no discernable input-stream.

Dangnabbit, the music i`m listening to really reminds me of Poirot. Which i suddenly felt like being reintroduced to. Which sums up my attitude towards having begun reading "The Thin Man" by Graham Greene today. The only word i manage to conjure up for that novel right now is "prattle". Let`s hope it becomes fascinating prattle soon, because my patience is far from infinite when it comes to novels nowadays. (Actually managing to get through 400 pages of Stephensons latest begs to differ, but i don`t know if i`ll listen.


And uiodetect+conhost keeps launching themselves every three minutes to check up on an f-secure file. -Very- annoying since it does this on none of my other machines. I don`t want to inquire further into the matter, but i feel myself forced to. I have no intention of doing another systemwipe until 2012, because i`m sick of that side of computers.
