Disavowed!

I really need to go to Lush at the weekend. The main reason for this being that I finally got the hot water fixed on Wednesday, meaning that I can have hot baths rather than (usually luke-warm) showers for the first time in weeks - and my stash of ballistics and bubble bars is consequently running low.

Yesterday evening got off to a fun start when the electricity decided to cut out just before, I was due to leave, meaning that I ended up having to hang around for another couple of hours until the power was properly restored (rather than doing an impression of a yo-yo). On the plus side, I grabbed a copy of Uplink from Steam and spent a fun evening playing the part of a 1337 hax0r. Until I got caught. Bugger.

Today I have a shiny new video card to install when I get home, although I probably won't have much time to admire the shiny. frayer will be here with the weekend, along with her friend lizziwig, who is starting at Oxford University in the autumn. The idea is that Liz can have a look around town before she comes up to study, but I imagine that lost of cocktails will be involved, too...

Ah, but does it have high resolution, high frame-rate graphics with gratuitous full scene anti-aliasing, ansitropic filtering and high dynamic range lighting? Does it, does it, does it? :D :D :D

Three words: Zero Point Energy. Pretty cool, huh?

You may play with my palls this weekend. Don't forget that there are balls for you to suck on too!
