argh! Dial up!!!

Argh! I've returned to dial up from home!

This is a terrible, terrible situation! Everything is so incredibly slow, I'm just not used to it. It's been about 5 years since I first got high speed internet, and I have become so accustomed to it.

I think this is part of the reason I've never got my license - I know once I start driving, I'll NEVER want to go back to walking / public transport...

It's only until Friday, but that's still a long, desperate wait. At least I have Foxtel to keep me occupied.

But this week just gone I saw Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith at the midnight screening, and thought fairly highly of it. It's easily the best in the new triology, and possibly better than Jedi. I need to see it again to give a more thorough review, but my intial impression is 8/10

I also was taken to see Henry Rollins stand up routine, and that was hilarious. Rollins is a master ranter, and funny as hell. Big shout outs to Maz and Nige for the ticket.

  1. Oh man, I know what that's like. Hope you've got your broadband back now...waiting for a page to load on dialup is like waiting for a bus on a public holiday - WHICH IS WHY WE HAVE CARS! Hang in there.
