- I've just reached a fair approximation of feature completeness for the all-new code for RS, Now comes the fun part - testing and debugging - and the really fun part - importing and verifying all the old data. Still, at least it's concrete progress and gives me hope that I'll be finished in the not-too-distant future.
- Along the way I ended up re-reading my (largely unfinished) Big Giant Fic O'Doom and rather enjoying it. I really must get around to writing the other 80% at some point...
- I was going to go and see Much Ado About Nothing yesterday, but as it's an outdoor performance, I decided to put off seeing my favourite Shakespeare play until the weather conditions were a little more favourable.
- Instead, I went to see Shrek 2 again, in its slightly tweaked British incarnation (Jonathon Ross' voce in place of Larry King's, and someone other than Joan Rivers playing Joan Rivers). Still very, very funny.
- In 13 days time, I'll be listening to my 'Current Music' in person. W00t!
- Managed to drop one of my shopping bags coming up the stairs in my flat. There was an unpleasant breaking glass sound, and an iceberg lettuce made an impressive break for freedom. Thankfully, the broken bottle was a small one of juice, and not a litre of Bombay Sapphire.
- In related news, my stairwell now has a fresh lime scent.
- I've recently been re-reading James P Hogan's Giants novels (from whence my LJ name came). Am much with the loff for zorac (and also visar, but mostly zorac).
- I'm also in the process of re-watching Babylon 5. Only the first season at the moment, but even so I remember why I love this show so much...
- There is no item 10.

I'm just jealous because Mark is a widescreen-laptop sort of guy, whereas I would be more of a PalmPilot.
(No Sidekick jokes, please...)
