You cannot perceive beauty but with a serene mind. – Henry David Thoreau I pondered on that for a little while. I just realized that my life is so good right now, it’s the little things that make you see it. Someone was wining on IRC tonight, like this person had been doing all week, [...]

I’m in coffee hell! This morning around 10, our old coffee machine was turned off, it wasn’t till 11 that an email was sent to notify us that our new machine was ready for use. Of course the lack of coffee in that particular hour is bad, very bad… I longed for a nice freshly [...]

So my cat walks in, I can still feel the cold outside air in her fur as she walks past my head and wakes me up by gently limiting my breathing as she pushes a soft hairy blanket in my nose and mouth. I realize I’m thirsty, wake up completely and turn on the bedroom [...]

I’m happy today, I helped my brother with his first linux install, he needed xmms and little things like that.

After that, I sort of fell asleep again… Four hours later I woke up again, just before four [...]

So, Norma-Jean didn’t come for dinner yesterday evening, she had a severe case of gas. I found three butter-croissants in the enclosure. I’m guessing Norma-Jean ate the most, followed by John, as he is a little over proteined, and Manson hardly had any (running around like crazy) Off to the vet at 1 AM, 100,41 [...]
