Alarm Clock

When decorating and furnishing the bedroom a few appliances that we took for granted had to go… namely the stereo.

At the time it didn’t seem such a big thing, I was getting an iPod and speakers for Xmas. This solved the problem of two missing bedroom appliances — stereo & alarm clock. Although the iPod/Speakers combination worked perfectly, I sometimes forgot to connect the iPod to the speakers, and this (more often than not) resulted in me over-sleeping.

As the computer is turned on 99% of the time, I tried (unsuccessfully) to locate an alarm plugin for my software MP3 player (foobar2000), during the search I came across Citrus Alarm Clock and now have an alarm clock to wake me up to the sound of my favourite MP3 playlist.

Back from the brink

I find it funny that every time I get snowed under with work, I always vow that I won’t let it happen again… Only to fall into the same trap several weeks down the line.

Having had such a hectic time finishing off some PHP work and starting assignments for university, I didn’t realise until today that I hadn’t posted in over a week… I don’t think thats ever happened in 8 months of blogging.

Now that the weekend is here I’ll be off into town partying later tonight, playing FarCry most of tomorrow and then I’ll be back doing assignments on Monday.

I’ve made a mental note to start posting more original stuff to the site too, and sometime towards the end of next week I’ll be starting on the redesign (at long, long last).

My apologies for the 9 day silence… I promise it won’t happen again. :)
