Well, intermittently offline: When it’s only it “only” disconnects all existing connections every ten minutes – and it’s slowly as hell on connections. Wasn’t even able to download a new RC of OpenOffice.

The whole mess only happened because my landlords have this company, bits GmbH, which is doing the Internet stuff for all apartments. I didn’t want to buy from them but they basically told me, “hey, we control the wires, what are you going to do about it?”

It’s quite easy what I will do about it; I’ll actually shop around and buy my Internet connectivity from someone who actually knows what they are doing. Until then, my apologies to everybody who tried to talk to me over the weekend, and especially to Pedro for not being able to continue our Assassin Duo team play on Guild Wars.

Having no Internet at home sucks big time.

Update, a week later: Took them pretty exactly a week to get this fixed. I am really not happy.

The English Garden is actually quite nice, and we walked until our feet hurt. Didn’t take nearly enough photos – I am always shy of being “the tourist”.

I fell asleep for a few hours after I got home. What can I say; I am just an aging geek.

I hadn’t noticed this before. As you can see it’s just a little gap in between the buildings, but hey, it’s still kind of nice.

I fell asleep sometime after 4pm and woke up sometime after 9pm. Guess I really needed it – the sucky part is, it will just result in insomnia again. I know they say you should get about seven to eight hours of sleep per night; I get around six on a good night. Usually, it’s between four and five. If you think that’s cool in any way, then you clearly never had this problem.

Tomorrow I’ll go on a little road trip with two of my co-workers; I hope that’ll tire me out enough for a good night’s sleep.
