… of my personal1 work supplied computer chair, to be more precise.
For some odd reason, my office chairs keep getting switched about. The current one seems rather attached as of late, though. Of course, once you try sitting on it, you can instantly tell why. It is an extremely ambitious chair. I’d wager to say, [...]

Most people would probably deplore this type of living, but I’d rather be ignorant than stressed out about stupid details. The minute I turn to think about what-ifs, they miraculously DO happen. Add to that, the fact that I am unable to think of desirable hypothetical situations. End result: gaaaaaaaaaaaah! :suspicious:
One of the first things [...]

Apparently packing brings out the best in me. Better said: it seems to amuse others around me greatly. Then again, maybe this was just a side effect, of a day filled with stress and swearing at Internet Explorer. Oh yeah… and trying to do everything at the last possible minute also counted… probably

I’m not sure about elsewhere, but here gypsies are generally rather… business oriented. They’ll stop you on the street trying to sell you whatever. It’s not a problem if you don’t need what they offer, the cunning businessman/woman1 is ready to rephrase his/her offer so it matches your needs. If you’re not taken in by [...]

Well hello there! No I’m not (yet) dead, just blundering my way through summer. One thing I never thought I’d experience, was enraging tech support. I am not a “stupid user” after all… or so I thought. Of course, I blame it all on a sun stroke.

Personally I have an insanely low tolerance to physical pain. Therefore, I generally do anything I can to avoid it1. As luck would have it, these past weeks have not exactly been conductive to my peace of mind.
First I get some serious cramps from my period. Dry-heaving can be so much fun at work… Next, [...]

… in the form of Japanese cuisine. That book cost me a small ‘fortune’, at the time, yet I’m still not sorry.

My most recent ‘master piece’ was the onigiri below:

Now the only thing left, is that shop assistants somehow realize that they DO actually sell that stuff. Maybe I should just smash their head into [...]

I’ll have to disappoint Kimmie: I’m not at all weird. Constantly making use of a bad choice of words seems to be a requirement for a (software) developer. Of course, there’s the fact that my colleagues do this on purpose while I don’t… but then I’m still learning

[EDIT February 27th 2008]
I finally installed PHPAskIt!, so now all those of you who want to ask me something, but would rather not use the comment form, can do so on the Q&A page! Yes, yes… I know: lame XD

… or so I thought for a good couple of years. This Christmas holiday proved otherwise, [...]

Who needs alarms clocks? I have dad who’s got an amazing talent for nagging. He literally nags me awake: tickling, light switching on, TV on max volume, or just plain shouting… it eventually works. That way I can get up in time to waste away a whole hour before I have to leave for work.
