jiveturtle.blogsite.org...Still Offline

Just to update you guys, my home server is still offline. What a nightmare. It has taken almost two weeks just to get to the nearest electronics store to get myself a new power adapter.

I get home last night, plugged everything, and hey it was working a treat...for 20 minutes only. Obviously the power adapter is not outputting enough power to the wireless router, looks like I'll be making another trip to Nova again sometime this week.

The escapade continues...

On the home front, still the same ole' same ole'. In-laws p*ssing me off righteously, especially the mother-in-law (MIL). The temperatures have started to turn up rapidly and having a kid in a hot stuffy room is not so good, so we turn on the air-conditioning to get ourselves cooled-off and comfy. So far so good, up until the MIL come into our room and says to my wife (her daughter) "Wah, haven't you gone a bit too far? Turning on the air-con in April?". Yeah..., go figure.

I have been spending a lot of my time on this site by Danny Choo. If you into Gundam, and anything Japanese, this may be the site for you! Go check it out!

Tomorrow is "Grave Sweeping" day, so we got a day off work. Hopefully I will do something productive...like getting some sleep!

Take care folks.

Amelie Back In Taiwan, Reunion With Mister Donuts

Amelie finally back in Taiwan!  Have missed her for three months, but have been busy at work, not had chance to catch up with her.  However, Amelie did some catching up herself...with her favourite Mister Donuts! You must cut down on those foods!

Happy 2nd Birthday Amelie!

Another step up the age ladder for my daughter Amelie (populary known as Tongtong too). Time certainly has flown, and with each day, it doesn't get any easier! She's started to form her own opinions and learning to express them in various different ways. She's a clever little one, but still lacks a certain amount of discipline. That's probably going to come from me, because Chien-yu is a little soft. I just hope she knows it for own good when I give her the smack-botty when she steps out of line. Last night we sang her the birthday song just before we slept (its was about 1am already). After a couple of choruses, she picked it up quickly and sang her own birthday song! Well, almost anyway, because sounded like "Hapi tu tu tu you". More practise for next year! I will add photos later on this evening.

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.
