Hmm, what’s happened since 7th January…

Birthday
My birthday happened, that was very cool. I got 30 cans of  Guinness and the Ultimate Matrix Collection amongst other things.

Laura took me to Franky and Benny’s for the most huge and expensive meal ever, after which I swore I would never eat again! We went to see White Noise at the cinema and drove home in the pouring rain in the dark. All in all it was fantastic day!

Farscape
They finally gave in to the campaigning from the fans and released two, two hour episodes to finish the story, what a great birthday present!

The episodes were a little… odd. They seemed to use earth words rather than Farscape slang in places and one of the actors was replaced, which I didn’t notice until the second episode! The ending was a *little* bit corny, but I enjoyed it none the less. And the good news is that the war between peacekeepers and sebacians is now over so John’s baby can be raised in peace time. There seemed to be a hint at one point that the peacekeepers originated from a planet that sounded very much like earth, or I may have imagined that.

Wireless
Due to asherfrancis getting a new laptop, I bought a wireless router for home so we now have wireless network access which is cool for my iBook (or would be if the wireless worked in Ubuntu). The Linksys ADSL Gateway (WAG54G) is very good and easy to configure with WEP encryption and NAT.

Bandwidth
According to my stats on PlusNet, during December my household used 20Gb of bandwidth. Is that a lot?

Illness
I’ve been off work with the flu since Tuesday which sucks. But lauperr has been an angel looking after me 🙂 🙂
