Notes and shameless advertising. Yay.
I just needed a measuring tape for something and, knowing I had one in my room, I simply turned round and picked it up off the shelf. This begs the question, why the hell do I have a measuring tape on my bookshelves?!
Another day of not much happening. Thus, a notes post.
Sam's apparently managed to make his Acorn Electron run games from his iPod via a lot of format conversion and an audio cable. The irony here is that the iPod itself is at least a hundred times more powerful than the Electron itself.
I'm really enjoying the Doctor Who short story collection A Day in the Life, part of the Short Trips series. This isn't really relevant to anything, I've just never recommended a book here before.
One of my friends from school has announced that he's leaving to go to college for an HNC in Biology before university instead of doing a Sixth Year. Up until now, only people that I either dislike or barely know have left. It'll be kind of odd, I guess.
Buy my Axim.
I've been thinking that I need to do more writing. Admittedly, I've probably been doing more writing for this blog in the past few months than I ever did otherwise, but sometimes it feels like I'm not writing other stuff because it makes me feel guilty for not doing my daily post. I'm going to try to get around this by writing posts earlier in the day and maybe doing some more fiction/comedy stuff.
There might be a stick guys woodle up later if I can get it done. If not, there will definitely be something tomorrow.

I realised today that I've had my Xbox 360 for well over a year (got it at launch, though it was hidden away beneath my bed until Christmas; as you can imagine, I made many jokes about sleeping with it under my pillow) and I only have 6 games for it. And 3 of those are launch titles. And 4 of them are shooters of some description, most of which I have barely played. So, any recommendations?
Remember my semi-review of Transformers? I was clicking around TV Tropes when I came to the Rule of Cool article. I won't put it hear since I can't be bothered trying to format it or anything, but the quote at the top of the page (and the trope itself, in fact) pretty much sums up my assessment.
And that's all for today folks. I may return later with a woodle or I may not. Such is the way of the roller-coaster of a life that I lead.
Also, buy my Axim. Or don't. I honestly don't care.
