Well we didnt go to that LAN party yesterday… we slept late and then with the heat and our allergies bothering us we decided it wasn’t really worth it, and we’d prolly just end up being crankie.

We did get irc.clockbot.net linked up with the other servers tho! I sent out an email last night as the “official announcement” of the room moving. So far it’s going over well.. except for a little episode last night…

See there is this script kiddiot, Yoshi, who used to chat on scifi, causing trouble and having a big ego about being “so into computers” He uses CompuServ and runs windows ME, need I say more? Yes, he is the typical 17 year old windows using, mirc loving monkey who thinks since he knows c++ and mirc scripting that he is so mighty. So somewhere along the line he developed this hatred for Myk. Now Myk doesnt have time to deal with kids like him, and tells him exactly that “go away you stupid windows monkey i have work to do” and Yoshi takes offense to this. So every chance he gets he comes into the room and “fights” with Myk “trying to see how much Myk really knows” … Now if you dont know this already, Myk has worked as a systems administrator at several companys in the past few years and currently works at a fiber optics company running their linux network and developing testing programs. So he has a normal job, and really only chats for fun, obviously doesnt have time for a windows monkey to come in and doubt what he knows. It’s all quite lame… So back to the point, Yoshi chats on a server linked to ours, he’s not an ircop or anything, but came into BOTH rooms we are in (deep13 and 13thhour) last night and caused a scene… asking why clockbot was linked, who gave him permission, then throwing around baseless accusations about how Myk “nukes” people and how he treats me badly. Now obviously to link a server you need permission of the servers being linked to, n stuff, so it was quite obvious that we did have full right to link. And about the treating me badly, wtf? He must be confusing Myk with my asshole of an ex.

Anyway, I had to deal with this stupid fight last night, and it sucked ’cause I was trying to read, when Myk comes in the room and was all “yoshi is trying to get us unlinked” Gah… eventually he left tho, hopefully he’ll just stay away. This was really upsetting to me because we did so much work to move the room, change our irc server to link up, and we thought this would be such a perfect place. I told the other ircops around that we didn’t know yoshi would freak about this (i didnt even know he chatted on the server much) and that we were all mature enough to just ignore problems with him… he just needs to keep his distance if he has a problem with us, not come in and start fights. It was pretty much agreed, and most people in #deep13 realize that he’s just a lamer anyway… so things are cool. Still it did upset me that all my work moving the room n stuff was threatened by one loser’s lameness.

Ugh, I wrote a lot about that %(

I didn’t sleep well last night… Because of the room crap I didnt even TRY to go to sleep til after 3 am anyway… I read for a while… tried to go to sleep… then my allergies started acting up, took some benadryl ’cause that usually makes me sleepy. It did and I fell asleep when Myk came to bed, I dunno.. must have been after 5 or something. Then I woke up at 7 with my left eye all tearing uncontrollably, stupid allergies! My eyes are still all teary. I did fall back to sleep for a couple hours, but finally around 11 I decided to get up.. I feel so tired %(

*Yawn* So have I mentioned yet what a disappointment the 6th Wheel Of Time book has been? I am about halfway through and it’s no where near as captivating as the other books have been, I find myself continually putting it down, and that’s sad… I guess this is what everyone means when they say the series gets dull %) Apparently I am not the only one to start getting bored at book 6…

Hmmm oh… heh.. the other night I asked Time to tell me about DNS… actually i said “Tell me a story about domain names” since I realized I never really learned much about the history of the system or how it currently works exactly. So Myk started explaining it to me, took about 20 minutes, and after I guess I had a bit of a puzzled look on my face so he got out his O’Reilly DNS and BIND book. It’s actually quite interesting… I’m surprised I survived previously without knowing it ;)

Anyway, I gotta go wander off to irc and teach everyone how to use nickserv n stuff… we are all such newbies at this! Being on crappy no services scifi for so long… hehe *wanders off*
