Stick Together, Team

Today, I moved out.

Now, that's a little ironic, because I'm still at my parents' house right now, as I haven't had the energy to move my computer, and I had to pop back here to get my duvet and sheets. And pillows. But other than that, I've spent all day either lugging televisions the size of small cars, or large armchairs, across doorways and through corridors of rainsoaked bushes, or I have been shopping, or cooking. And I feel quite tired. We have work to do tomorrow, but other than unpacking our own stuff, the hard parts are done. I have so much cupboard space, I'll be running computers from inside there.

Now I'm having difficulty typing and spelling, as I am that tired, so this is brief.

I have big thanks to Dan for helping me out today, that was very cool. The van we hired was a little more than we expected, but cheaper in total because the driver helped out with the loading. We got it done in one hour. I've only taken one computer for now, as I'm going to install and customise a Linux distribution on it before anything happens. Internet there will probably wait until after I get back.

CARLOS CHECK YOUR EMAIL IT'S FULL OF LIFE AND DEATH IMPORTANT STUFF

Carlos hasn't been online for a while, and he'll have hell to pay if he doesn't get money sent here immediately. I'm going to leave this entry at that, as I need to get going home (I love that), and sleep.

Supplement: I just wanted to add, tomorrow is the 2012 Olympic bid. New York is bidding, which I think is ridiculous, because America recently had the World Cup and the Olympics within a couple of years of each other, and if you say that 14 years or whatever isn't recent, think that England hasn't had it in something like 70 or 80, whatever it is. Despite that, I seriously don't want the Olympics here. It's tax money spent on letting people run in circles. Being the fastest runner in the world, well, it's a great achievement, but it doesn't actually mean anything, unless you hunt for your own food or are frequently mugged. There's nothing interesting in the Olympics. Paris will probably get it, but they just had the World Cup, so Madrid would probably best benefit from it. So I'm going to back Madrid for the bid. I really don't see the point of backing the country I was born in just because I was born here, it doesn't make it any more special. It's just a hassle. I'll probably be gone by 2012 anyway though.

Back the bid? F*ck the bid. But we'll probablt win it after that, knowing my luck. Exactly 12 hours until the announcement (12:44). Well, give or take 2 minutes.
