Weekend update of sorts

Thursday:
Visited the london perlmongers pub meet after work, geeked about motherboards and cameras in a pub overlooking Westminster.
Headed up to the Alwyne to see everyone else. Had only eaten a small sandwich, so was possibly rather tipsy after what I think was a total of two, maybe three, beers in the night. Whoops. Went home, slept well.

Friday:
Caught up with ali_anarres and uon after work; had a few pints, and this time I'd only had some chips for dinner. Chatted about all manner of things, including genetic algorithms and AI I think. They appeared to be having a minor lock-in at the pub (ie. it was 23:30 and they had drawn the curtains and seemed to be continuing to serve people), but we left; I staggered home and fell into bed, slept well again.

Saturday:
Up fairly bright and early, but dithered a lot before getting to Tufnell Park to help merlinc and thamshere move house. Again.
Headed to Camden afterward with Jo & Carrie, where I demonstrated the wonderful coffee shop of doom to them. He wasn't roasting beans at the time we arrived, but the smell was still delightful. He'd remembered to keep one of the Columbian sacks aside for me, too, hurrah. (I hope he realises that the amount of coffee I buy every few weeks is supplying the tech department, and not just myself!)
Wandered down to Euston, then bussed home. Faffed too long then headed to the Mucky Pup just in time to (almost) ruin the surprise party for vixstar. (I got on the same bus as she).
Headed along to the Liquid Connective trance thing at the Rocket after 11. There was some really nice music playing and everyone was having a good time, but I didn't last thru the night as I was a bit worn out by now, and wanted to be productive on Sunday.

Sunday:
Managed to fix Carrie's PC, and upgraded it too without (AFAIK) breaking it again.
Then headed down to 93' East at Brick Lane to catch up with Jason, Charlie, Dan, Linda, Amy and some others. Saw a few cool film shorts and a couple of bands; never managed to make it out to get food, so once again was probably too tipsy after several pints. Luckily(?) most people were fairly tired after mammoth train delays earlier, and the fact it was Sunday, so headed home relatively early and crashed out in bed.

Slept terribly, and woke up feeling crap with a cold. D'Oh!

Monday:
Have had an entirely unproductive day at work.

Some camera bits I was selling on ebay have gone for less than I was hoping, but still, have added up to enough to pay for the other bits I won.
(Although in theory that money was going towards the new camera, not the new accessories. Whoops.)

Some kind of music meme..

Meme inherited from chiselwright:

# Total amount of music files on your computer?
There's just under 80 Gb, although there's then another approx 80 Gb downstairs on the file server. it just happens to be the same set, plus or minus any recent additions that haven't yet been mirrored.

# The last cd you bought was...
Steve Reich - Different Trains

# What was the last song you listened to before reading this message?
Umm.. Prague Spring, or Leper Colony, from the Legendary Pink Dots' album Shadow Weaver.

# What new music are you really excited for in the coming year so far?
Hmm, nothing comes to mind right now. I'm going to have a look out for any albums by Iszoloscope, Modular, Vegas Soul, and Milligramme that I don't already have though.
