First things first.

After 395 days of uptime, my Linux box died this morning. Of course the box was so old, it died a natural death. The death was electronic, so my old Redhat installation died while still on its feet. I have Fedora downloading as I write, and will be blowing the dust off the PC I replaced just over 12 months ago and will be doing a fresh install. Emailing me on my Ms-Geek address will not give you satisfaction over the next couple of days, as my Ms-Geek domain was hosted locally. You can get me at the same prefix at grumpyoldwoman.net, however. Good thing I took some of my hosting off-shore!
So, to sum up, my e-penis is now an e-dent!

Personally, I’m doing OK. Will be off work until the end of next week. Spent some time down the South Coast with my parents (and am just finishing the bootload of mum’s take-away home cooking, bless her) and have been hard at work shopping the post-christmas sales since I’ve been back.

Spent the rest of the time watching the cricket (tune out now US residents), crying into my Kleenex over Warnie’s retirement when not laughing at how soundly we are flogging the Poms. There’s nothing more satisfying than flogging the Poms. I have outlined Australia’s stance on sporting events against England in a previous post.

Well, that’s it for now, must ease myself back in.

Oh, and Bio, thanks for checking up to make sure I’m not dead and letting everyone know :)
