Waiting sucks, really!

I've ordered a pacemaker.. But I'll have to wait roughly 10 days until I get back home to get it. I WANT IT NOW!

Perl 5.8.8 sucks, or the lack of Perl 5.10 on my box sucks! Really

Been struggling with a regexp using perl since I couldn't get sed to work as I wanted (mainly "+" sucks with sed).

Being two hours late sucks, really!

There was some part broken (missing?) on the airplane so we had to wait for two hours before boarding. I don't really mind, I still get paid..

However it does not take the pain out of waiting, I have had two beers just hit that sleep aphex after dinner so I'm quite tired right now and I have to stay awake for some time now. The question is if I should skip sleeping all together so I wont be that tired and jet-lagged tomorrow in Montreal?

Appart from the delay the stay in Heathrow was quite ok, but it has to be said that the bacon at TGI's should not be allowed to be called bacon; bacon is thin and crisp what I got was anything but that..

Hmm, just realised that I might only be one hour late, timezones sucks! ;)

my macbook sucks! really!

My MacBook has started to behave badly. I'm staying at a hotel for 5 more months (no it's not really nice) and the internet connection is NATed (free though). So I want to access my macbook from work. It's quite easy; just set up a ssh tunnel back to the mac. But the last two days it has frozen after I left my room. So this means that I can't download my tv-series to my mac from the office. Which means that I have to wait until I get home and my collegues starts downloding Swedish Idol which means that I just get about 20kb/s compared to 300kb/s.

I'm about to go and get myself a new laptop, probably a MBP or a MBA, haven't decided just yet. Luckilly I'm in Montreal where there is a Apple Store four blocks from the hotel so I can go down there and get a new one in a heartbeat. But I have to wait, no matter how much I want a new computer I'll have to see what's being released on October 14th..
