Well, I have broken the one last rule that I had, I have worked on a Sunday, I am such a work whore, oh and the fact that I will be paid double time, that’s £10 p/h, in case you were wondering, as its outside of my normal working hours and on a Sunday, quite a big motivation in volunteering to work! But it has taken its toll, as I haven’t been feeling too well in recent days and I am now totally exhausted, and now I have to wait until Thursday for my next day off, so I will be working 8 days straight, probably end up sleeping all the way through Thursday out of pure exhaustion, which is caused by lack of sleep, despite feeling totally shattered, I just cant sleep until about 4 – 5am, early starts and late nights are not a good combination. The only way for me to be able to sleep is to get wasted (drunk) then I can sleep, but then I oversleep and end up being late for work and have a hangover to boot, seems that I cant win, extremely frustrating!
In other news, in fact some relatively old news now, I have invested in a Dolby Digital surround sound system. It sounds amazing, much better than I imagined, it’s just like being at the cinema. The sound is truly dynamic, the dialogue is crisp and clear, and when the action sequences kick in, the room shakes with the volume difference and sub-bass coming from the subwoofer/amplifier unit, even at lower volumes, which makes it awkward for use late at night, It needs to be a certain volume, or else you cant hear the dialogue and ambient effects properly, especially with the PC sat in the corner whirring away. Yes, I know I could turn the PC off, but it hasn’t been switched off for nearly 2 years now, so I am not going to start now, besides I am not sure if it would actually boot again if I did turn it off!
