Okay, okay, I tend to return to this place every full moon. I wish I had the stamina to write something everyday, but I don't. I tend to fizzle out, and then get a spurt of energy and enthusiasm. Just like the good ole' combustion engine.

So as you've guessed, I'm full of energy today, but still have nothing to write about.

The virus issue has had us busy at work. Someone actually came up to me one break as I was talking to a friend, and asked if I was ok?

"Of course I am", I said "I use a Mac!". This of course ended the conversation, as the person couldn't argue PC's were /better under the Virus situation.

I entered a company competition last week, to redesign the 2 main break-out areas. As far as I know, when I handed in my design it was the only submission. Heck, I'd feel really guilty if I won by default, but they really hated my design! Mwahahahaha!!!

The winner gets a £50 budget to do the area... not much to go on! So I went for a simple Mural design (did I spell that right?). Communication through the century. It's basically a load of images of inventions that changed the course of comunication over the last 100 years. It's nothing major, but it'll mean I'll have some time to do the things I enjoy (painting, drawing etc...).

My eBay selling went quite well in total. I bought the Mac for £253, and I've managed to get back just under £200. Not bad at all for a motherboard replacement, faster processor, and faster graphics card.

I wouldn't mind a G5 tho.
Last week I challenged a team-mate to see who could read all of the bible first. My friend had a head start, and I'm afraid to say, he's taking it on board alot more enthusiastically then my self. He's already on to Deuteronomy, and I've just finished Genesis.

I'm getting board quite easily, which is somewhat an unfortunate thing. I have read these books of the bible before (well about half of the old testemant, and all of the new T). The fact that I'm not a fast reader either doesn't help. I've just got to pull myself together, and read. I suppose it's because I'm so far behind, that I feel I'm missing out, as he gets to read it all before me.

*sigh* I'll keep you posted on the challenge.
