Well it is finally here! My new fujitsu has arrived and I am very happy with it to date. I am have been playing around with it and am looking at windows stuff for the first time in about 4 years which is not exactly a thrilling experience I have to say but still its interesting to see how things have changed since I last looked at windows. Ofcourse I have gentoo running on it now with no problems, though I havn't had the chance to set it up just as I would like to due to work being very busy and me resurrecting a few older boxen of mine.
Aside from playing with new toys (much fun) I have been getting on top of some interesting technologies at work. In particular I have been designing and testing our IDS implementation. I have also managed to start to find a little bit more time to do some gentoo work but really at this point in time I am still not getting enough done and am going to have to make a concerted effort to catch up to where I should be at this point in the mentoring process. Bad Ben.
My weight bet has hit a snag as well. I have been reliably going to the gym at least 4 times a week, but of all weird things to happen I somehow developed a life and have been averaging about 3 social commitments a week for the last few months which has made it harder then I thought to achieve serious levels of gym going. A further, and more immediate complication, is that my scales I recently discovered a completely unreliable. I discovered this by accident as when I was standing checking my weight I moved a little bit and watched the measured weight vary by 5kg and STAY that way. Further tests showed that basically all my previous results were probably invalid and its entirely possible that I have gained weight. That said I am fairly sure I have actually lost significant amount of weight (2-4 kg) as cloths are starting to fit a lot looser and going to the gym for an hour every other day for a month or two is having SOME effect :)
