Grams too tired to play snooker (She's off at the nurse's office now taking a nap)

So, in sympathy, I'm going to take one too and then see if there's enough of the day left to do some more work on OpenGLContext.
Using a semen extractor for a woman? (Science shows are weird sometimes...)
Written by

Vindaloo.
A few days ago I saw a science show that was explaining that morphologically, a woman's "g-spot" is the same component of the reproductive system as a man's prostate. Same program mentioned female ejaculation (in which a clear fluid is expelled from a woman's eurethra during (certain types of) orgasm), but didn't draw what seems ...
Hope is Gone (A sweet, mischevious little doggy, past the pain)

She was very tired, and having a lot of trouble breathing at the end. There's no pain any more. Love out to Gail for her loss.
3-1/2 hours wasted on Corrupted Disk (Need to buy a new one once the cheque for training clears)

Instead of getting home and spending 8 hours working on projects I wound up spending 3-1/2 hours rebuilding the computer, and 2 hours sick to death of the darn thing.
Which leaves just a couple of hours to actually do some OpenGLContext hacking. Decided to work on the "browser" component, which is the closest thing ...
Puppy is sick (Little Hope is in the hospital)

Rose's roomate Gail has two beautiful little puppies, Hope and Noah. Hope went to hospital today and the vet says she's not producing any red blood cells. Prognosis doesn't sound good, for now she's on all sorts of IV drips. Good luck little Hopey.
Good lord this month is going slow (PyCon not even a month ago yet)

How is it possible that PyCon was less than a month ago. Heck, even this week seems to have taken a few weeks to complete. Maybe it's just that it's been almost two months since the last PyGTA meeting I was able to attend... and there's still another week and a day before the next ...
Yesterday's day (Altogether pleasant party...)
Written by

Vindaloo.
Yesterday was entirely occupied with the party. Started rather late-ish (around 8 or so). Biggest news for me was when Nousha walked in (I'd been told she'd moved to China permanently). Whole thing lasted until 3:30 or so IIRC. Smaller crowd than I'd expected (basically none of the tentative repliers were able to come). Felt ...
Hmm, getting started rather late this morning (Was hoping to be up and cleaning 2 hours ago)

No work until the place is ready and all the shopping is done. Spent last night getting testing code working and beginning to port in the SNMP-level stuff. Tried forcing myself to sleep on my back last night, feels better, but didn't actually sleep much. Okay, if I don't get a move on I'll get ...
females aren't fickle; they just change their mind (It's-from-the-CBC-so-it-must-be-true...)

Interesting article this evening. Looking at the how the mating preferences of bower birds change as the females age. Apparently flashy displays are more likely to impress the younger females, while older females are looking for energy and skill in a mating dance. Weirder yet, the young females are said to be afraid of the ...
Continuing to simplify (And the party-count rises)

Snaking,

This evening I charge back into revising the core engine for Cinemon, particularly breaking out the processing of individual modems into a stand-alone operations that can be interspersed with the actual querying of the network.
Count for the party so far is 12 people with 4 of those tentative and 2 definite, but late. Still ...
