Yep, it's a collection of daily meaningless rambling...

  • 09:32 RT @defencehq 2day we remember: Millions served in the UK Forces in the 1st World War. This generation's passing is a milestone 4 our nation #
  • 12:43 Whoa. My amazon.de wish list now has 7 pages. And the sisters said "You can't always have books as gifts!" Which is totally NOT true >( #
  • 19:59 Impressive. Milow makes even Mario Barth (and David Hasselhoff) bearable: is.gd/4SL73 #
  • 21:43 Quite honestly... I'd rather commemorate the end of WWI than have to watch drunken ridiculously dressed Germans everywhere. #veteransday #
  • 22:11 Meh. SG10 is being rather reluctant about being written in a Christmas story. Come on, guys, it's not as bad as you think. Really! #

On Saturday the 14th at 4AM UTC/GMT we will be upgrading the operating system of our network load balancers to a newer version, one that will allow us to use both CPUs! Nifty, because multiprocessing is nice.

Since we have 2 load balancers, the plan is to upgrade 1 at a time, and there really should be very little impact to our website. Hopefully you won't notice a thing and I'll get to go back to the hotel and watch some wonderful late night infomercials.

We've got a lot of exciting projects coming up for 2010 and we're hoping that we'll be able to deliver them all to you, that you will find it useful/cool/lovely and then you will use the site even more. Behind-the-scenes work like this will give us the capacity to handle the anticipated traffic, so expect a few more maintenance windows especially in the beginning of next year as we've got some neat ideas to improve performance around here! We had the recent 30-45 minute outage yesterday due to one of our logging databases filling up disk space -- not so great design coupled with my human error in handling the initial problem -- and it looks like we're going to finally have some resources to eliminate stuff like that. I can't wait!

As usual, I will be updating status.livejournal.org before and after, just in case you are not able to reach our main website during the work.

Was just over checking Lifetime's schedule for December with the intent of finding Under the Mistletoe listed somewhere...


And I found it! XD


Under the Mistletoe will be shown Sunday, Dec. 6th at 5 pm (EST) on Lifetime.


Make a note since that's still a bit off, though I'm sure it'll be repeated again (the announcement, not the movie...it's not showing up again in the schedule as I keep going through it) by me (and probably on MSOL).


Just thought I'd get a jump on it and give a early heads up now before I forgot to.

Massive hugs and ginormous thank yous, first and foremost.  It means a lot and has put some more things into perspective for me so thanks so much for taking the time to share your thoughts, commiserate, hug, but thank you most for just being there and listening.  I don't let myself get into those funks too often, but when it does happen it means more than I can say to know that I've got friends to buoy me up.

Now, let's make the title says...

Please remember our war veterans today and those still fighting and risking their lives overseas.  They have made and some continue to make great sacrifices.  Please take a minute.

And in honour of Remembrance Day...

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
                                   --John McCrae

I've recited this poem so many times over the years (every year in school), I don't think I could ever forget it.

I can't believe it but today it has been 2 years. Two years since I shed my sanity and joined GW. Funny that despite all the changes GW has undergone since I joined some things never change. We still have those passionate fans and people gunning at each others throats. It still has some great people and some I would punch in the face if I met them in real life. And yet if I had a chance I would do it all over again. GW has its fault but as I have said numerous times before it has brought me some great memories and some great people.  Here is to two more years my friends of continued enjoyment of one another and continued snarking of those poor ignorant fools.

since it's been like many many millenia ago that i've actually posted something with any amount of substance (and longer than two or three lines), an actual honest to god real update 

- I am LOVING the Host! I really liked the Twilight series, but there's so much more substance to the Host. It's taking me ages to finish, but i'm loving every page.

- going to the Night of the Proms tomorrow, as an aniversary from the boyfriend. We said that we'd go on our first year aniversary, but since there won't be any Proms anymore then, this was the closest to the due-date :) and yes, ALMOST A WHOLE FRIGGING YEAR! Never thought we'd get this far. but we're still going good.

- have a feeling i'm doing absolutely nothing for school, even though i am. A have three classes in a week, which accounts to about 6 hours total. I do the assignments due, read a bit for school... and that's it. I sorta promised my thesis advisor i'd finish a book he recommended around 15th and i'm only at p12 (it's a 144 page book... so it shouldn't take me this long). Not having a lot of class really disturbs your rythm. i absolutely have none.  i'm home three days of the week, two days of class, and two days with kris. i had planned to work on my thesis monday, type my notes thursday and work on paper for popular culture friday, but for some reason only what i do on thursday actually gets done. I need to get a grip and get on with the work i've planned for myself!

- what else... had my hair cut :P i have a pony! a real pony that's really annoying if you haven't got the right brush to style it (but i have since bought said right brush). 

that's about it...
