A Hello to Sporky/Anhedonia
Babel17 Started conversation Sep 9, 2000
Hi Sporky, Just thought I would drop by and say Hi, as it has been too long. RL has been a complete alabaster to me recently, hence my lack of online time, and witty repartee. How are things in your neck of the woods? Any better lately? Mine just seems to get worse.
My website still hasn't been uploaded as yet, but I did use one of your pics. Hope that is ok. I will email a screenshot, hopefully over the weekend. I will use your OTD mail address if that's ok, as I know it will get to you. I don't know whether you have another address, since your namechange. Let me know what you think. I hope to try and get the damn thing up by the end of next week, but then I have been saying that for the last few months Also I have to work on 2 PC's this weekend, and put in another nightshift tonight, and try and find some sleep as well. Oh well, enough ranting just now. Catch you later,

No problem Me tired too, but another 3 hours or so before I get to go to mine. Nightshift, don't, don't do it! You've got nothing to gain except killing your brain.

Things are okie at this end; uneventful, as always. My address is still the same, so, it really doesn't matter And I'm off to w*rk again.

Oh well.
Cool, I will email tomorrow, time permitting. i hit a bit of a snag with the PC's over the weekend, and only managed to get the problem sorted this morning, so a lot of work for me to do tomorrow. Until I get this sorted, i cannot use my main PC to get logged on. Still, look out over the next couple of days

Ah, I was going to say hello, but then you disappeared again. Oh well. I was going to say, "what are you doing online at this time?"
~curious, Scotland.

hmm... at what time? I remember going to bed at 6 am yesterday....
A Hello to Sporky/Anhedonia
Babel17 Posted Sep 22, 2000
I can't remember what the time difference is between us.
It was about 10am here, so say 5am EST? Roughly...
You really should get more sleep

Oh the luxury
I couldn't believe my father only ever needed 4 hours sleep. Now I envy him, as I seem to need more and more, the longer I stay on shifts. I am constantly knackered. I wish I only needed 4 hours sleep a night.

I'm back. Miss me? (doubt it, nobody else has )
Only joking. How you doin'? Got over the life threatening illness yet?
5(five) Bloody weeks I have not been here! Life sux big time atm. Work even more so. Web page, along with everything else has gone by the wayside for the moment. Looks like it will be the New Year before I get anything going. I keep making promises to myself to get stuff done, but then being the lasy B'stard I am, I never get around to it.
Yadda, yadda. What's my motivation? (actually where is my motivation would be more appropriate )
I did toy with the idea of dropping off here completely, ie for good, as I just couldn't cope with everything in RL. Too much stuff going on in my head, and unable to concentrate on anything.
Still my two weeks holiday has helped (see my journal).
A bit clearer in my head over a few things now.
Anyway, hope you are OK.

So I had a look, and sent you a message (twice, sorry) funny how once the message is sent it just dumps you onto a blank page, with a few of the blue stuff behind it. Hopefully I might get a chance in a few weeks to try and get some more stuff done myself, at which point I will email you to have a look, if you can be bothered
PS The journal entry isn't up to much, it just reminds me to have a look at the photos again

I'm not sure that the form works
In fact, I'm scraping that and going for a different design altogether (yay me)
A Hello to Sporky/Anhedonia
Babel17 Posted Nov 4, 2000
Yay you! indeed
I did like your old site at C********
I liked the feel, with the black background, and the deep blue text/buttons etc. (I have tried a similar thing with mine, but then I haven't designed my own buttons etc. That is once the initial site is set up, and I then have time to modify, tweak etc. But you will see for yourself soon enough)
Key: Complain about this post
