From around 10 until 12 tonight I tidied up my room. I still need to sweep it, but it’s much better. All those eftpos dockets, yellowing park ‘n’ spend receipts and studylink letters are now in the bin.
I’m going to ask the flatmates if I can move one of the couches that is never used into my room, then it will be ultimate.
It’s already quite a cool room. I have a queen sized bed with egyptian cotton sheets, two slim tower bookshelves, a huge I Robot movie poster (3m x 1.5m) (which I need to change to a better movie), a small computer desk, a swivel chair, a metal grill shelf, an open fireplace, a clothes chest and a small set of cupboards. Add a sofa to the mix (in front of the fireplace) and I don’t think it could get much better.
Actually a TV would make some difference, but only for movies and video games. I think I’ll just wait until I get a new computer with a big screen instead of a TV.
I hope I didn’t keep my flatmates up while I was cleaning, I was being quite noisy.
Edit: We got hot water back a couple of days ago! Something was wrong with the relay or regulator or something.
Hey bro! Rearranging one’s ‘lair’ is always kinda fun. Can’t say I have all that much space to play with but yeah. New poster may be a priority, hehe. Hey I was wondering if you’d be interested in buying my PC (computer, monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers etc) next year? I’m going to sell it before I go to Norway, and I could think of no finer person to adopt out my baby to. Only if you’re interested, and of course, since you helped me buy and build her, mates rates will apply. Apparently Ben wants to get his greasy mits on my mobo, but that would require breaking her down and selling parts individually, which is kinda too much hard work. Here she is in all her beauty:

So yeah. Only if you’re interested. She’s gonna be going anyway, because I need the money for a plane ticket. Anyway, take it easy and keep in touch mate.
I’d love to aye, but I’m a mac boy through and through. My next computer will probably be a Mac Pro coming out this August (hopefully). So as much as I would like to own ‘the beast’ I can’t.
Good luck with selling it, I’ll mention it to my people and try and find a buyer.
Really do need a new poster.
Looks like you really need a Ragdoll Masters poster!
Or maybe a “Italy world champion” one
Great to hear you tidied your room Thomas! I tidied my desk yesterday until 1 am. How’s it going back in the ivory tower?
It’s going okay. Much better than work. By room is still tidy!
