    Phew. Those spots on Jack have disappeared. They stayed around for a couple of days though. Just a rash? He’s tottering all over the place now. He walks across the living room, carrying his toys, wandering from sofa to table to sideboard. And he can safely lower himself from the sofa or bed onto the…

    Oh man. I was picking up some stuff from stores today and saw a brand new G5 being delivered with an Apple screen. Nice. I wonder who that was for? Frankly, this is good motivation for me to write those grant applications I’ve been thinking about. I think I should get more into bioinformatics too,…

    Oh dear. I said it wouldn’t take long. Jack has a very light rash over his upper body, and two of his mates have just had chicken pox. Fingers crossed that it’s just a rash, eh? He’s had a bit of a wobbly day today. He must have fallen over almost a dozen times, cracking…

    I still haven’t finished Jack’s first year DVD. We seem to have accrued a huge amount of footage (1st time parents, eh?) which I’m sifting through on my Mac. I’m really busy finishing up as much research as possible before I go to Swansea, so I’m not having the spare time to get on and…

    Ha! My website is getting more regular, daily hits than the news page on the www.cardiffjif.com website! I don’t know why I’m laughing. It took me a hell of a lot of effort to develop that website. And I’m paying out of my own pocket for it’s hosting because of the PHP fiasco. Oh well.…

    We just finished watching the second season of 24 on DVD, in time for the start of the third season next week. I’m so glad it’s over, in a good way. I can almost feel an ulcer coming on from the constant stress in each episode. If I feel like this God knows how Jack…

    I’ve been buying more kit! I’m planning to use my iBook as my primary work computer for Swansea to make mobile computing easier. I’ve ordered an Apple bluetooth (wireless) keyboard myself, and been bought the matching mouse as comission for building a PC in Cardiff before I leave. Sweet!

    You know how you always try and get through the amber light during rush hour just before it goes red? Because you don’t want to wait? And sometimes it turns red? Not a good idea, because this happens: (Not me, by the way!)
