Do you know your cause for Insomnia?
Someone gave me an Ibm ball wheel mouse with a usb cord connector.
I needed it to replace my twisted cord. The connector is the same and all I had to do was to pull out the pins and re arrange the wires in the same way. No more annoyances with moves and clicks I don't make.
I brought the mouse second hand and I cut out another twist in the wiring 5 years ago. Not sure if that is good for a mouse cord that is used every single day since then.

Ah, Legos. One day I shall free them from the confines of the attic over the garage. They were probably the best toys that I ever owned. I'm keeping them for when I have kids. (Hopefully that doesn't backfire somehow) To put things into perspective: in sets alone, between my brother and I,we own at least a good 1,000 - 2,000 dollars worth of Legos. There was a roughly 15 years of usage on the oldest ones before they were packed away.
EM: Tonight they were showing Mission Impossible 3 at college. It wasn't a great film, but a friend of mine was going and the college also provided free (very good) snacks. Since I didn't have to pay a cent (or rather, it came from tuition money so I already paid for it), got free food and good company, it was more than worth it.

Apparently writing about JM here is his secret weakness. Muwahaha!!!! Now I have leverage over him and am another step closer towards my goal of world domination.

Kurgan X showed me this web comic done with Legos. It pokes fun at all six Star Wars films and I found it to be extremely entertaining.

Partially its because I'm the lightest damn sleeper in the universe, more because of a sliding curve ("I can't sleep, so I won't"/next day, wait longer before catching up on it), even more so because my entire social life involves the sun being down.Its not like it'd even be a problem back at uni, there's usually someone awake to talk to, watch telly with, wonder what the fuck they're doing, save from inebriation, etc, but here I've got to wake up too early, and there's nothing to do at 3am but think (which is kinda fun, but at that point I've nothing left to think about but "god I'm so alone") and read stuff I've read literally hundreds of times before.
