Day 14, On this day last year I took myself out for a
cooked breakfast, but this year I made it myself [I chose
against photographing it for you, sorry/not sorry], after having
been out on my bike for an hour+. I saw some more of the
wind-damage my area suffered last weekend when my internet got
buggered; I really got off lightly; while it's not uncommon to
have an 80mph wind here at this time of year, I've seen fences
damaged, heard of and seen trees uprooted (my mum's neighbour's
property has suffered some damage apparently, and a large tree
today I saw had fallen and clipped the corner of a static
caravan/mobile home - if there was anyone sleeping in there at
the time, they were lucky, one meter to the right and that thing
would look like a crumpled tin can), and people without power
for 24+ hours.
Anyway, I'm currently enjoying some coffee before visiting my
neighbours for a workout, and they're then going to cook a meal
for me... how nice!
Sorry, I have little more to add today. I had intended to get
this uploaded earlier, along with yesterday's day which I'd
gotten behind on, but tomorrow's will be uploaded somewhat late
in the day too, and I'm not sure what to do yet for that
either...
In other news I bought a graphics card off ebay and a
replacement mainboard for the Mac Pro I'm working on (the 6
capacitors I'm trying to replace in the power supply are being
difficult), but I've had issues with both, but the good news is
that both sellers promptly refunded me \o/
Maybe tomorrow I'll present an Einstein@home update, a Mac
Pro update, or a "PSU repairs" update...
