Yea, cos yelling “Big Bang Theory!” Doesn’t have the same ring to it :p

Just scared myself. Just did a tally up all the bits I need to make the under-armour for my Spartan suit. This includes: Full body suit, pressure armour, belt, webbing, buckles and screws and came to just under £120… and this was on ebay! I maybe living in this suit!!

“MPAA chairman Chris Dodd expresses regret over pro-SOPA strategy, calls for compromise”
Compromise…. THIS… IS… THE INTERNET!! (That’s a polite – no, silly little man with a silly little job!)

Wiped, reformatted and set-up a new PC in under two hours… maybe a new record for me. Could have saved time by downloading all the apps/software before hand…

Just working out all my accounts and money crap, finding out when I can pay for expo rooms/tickets, supplies for the armour and what not… and finally figuring out if I can get a new LED TV to replace my dieing LCD (after the expo!)

Decided to take a break today as my hand was totally messed up (From all the Pepakura you a$$es) so instead, I broke my one promise to myself and started playing a F2P MMO… 10hours later and I’m level 7!! Can’t decide if its time well spent or be miffed with myself… gah. At-least hands are feeling better!

Oh Virgin Media, your so silly. Thinking I have 100mb line when I only have 50mb! Why do not have 100mb line? Cos your charge a stupid price for a modem that should be free/built into the Set-top box!! Now where’s my VirginTV on my xbox360 huh?

Its always interesting when my mum rings..
“Morning”
me: “What’s wrong mum?”
“Your brothers broken his hand….”
me: “How bad?”
“Specialised surgery tomorrow”
>_< The only one in the family who likes sports and is constantly being “Broken”…
