Invernal hails
Mar. 22nd, 2008 01:45 pmAh, such a typical British spring day, alternating between bright sunshine and snow or hail showers in the space of minutes. Lucky I don't have to go out, really. Still, good weather if you're a plant, I suppose. The squirrels outside get a bit annoyed at being caught in the hail though.
This week's been good, with opportunities to actually talk to people, rather than having to shout at them in a noisy club or the like. More of that please. Even if it does involve enduring the occasional uninflated balloon attack, or debating why The Terminator didn't just come back disguised as a coin or a nuclear bomb or something.
I am definitely considering Metal Camp this summer, if it could double up as a proper holiday and sight-seeing thing, rather than just watching a load of dodgy European bands playing so-called folk metal.
After having finished reading the book on medieval Britain, my current reading is on game theory, which is pretty cool. The artificial intelligence book I ordered arrived, about 4 or 5 days late, and in worse condition than I expected. I gave the seller a 3 out of 5 rating on Amazon Marketplace, and they contacted me afterwards, offering a partial refund in exchange for me withdrawing the rating. I'm not sure what I think about that.
