Go Me!

Pleased to report that I spent the evening in the company of an attractive young woman. She took me to dinner, then it was straight back to her place...

Before you get started with the "Whoo Hoo"s (yes, you jiggery_pokery), you'd better read the rest...

Women are only after one thing - and unfortunately, it's my l33t hax0r ski11z that they want. Yes, folks, it was a fun-filled evening of persuading LaTeX to display and print stuff correctly under Windows, plus the unexpected bonus of installing a network card. And all this on a machine so old it's running Win95 and has a CD-ROM drive that couldn't read my carefully prepared CD-RW. I would at this point make a poor-quality joke about a 3.5" floppy, but it wasn't even mine...

On the up-side, in addition to the free dinner, I was also plied with frozen yoghurt, cookies and chocolate, plus I got to visit the St. Hilda's MCR - how many men have done that and lived to tell the tale? All in all, a pleasant change from an endless stream of evenings spent sitting in front of my computer screen (like I'm doing just now. doh.)

When will zorac next get a proper romantic dinner?
