A photo of a clean-shaven white man in a khaki-coloured collared shirt wearing a call centre headset and a conical party hat.

One of the first pics from the new camera! (And no, it’s not a very good pic, I know…it was just a random snap. 😉)

An EXTREMELY poor quality photo from a 2004-era mobile phone of a silver compact point-and-shoot camera.

An EXTREMELY poor quality photo from a 2004-era mobile phone of a silver thermos that looks very much like a dildo.

Whee! Last week we had the latest Call Centre Quarterly Excellence awards…and I won something again. 😀 This time I got a Canon Ixus 500 digital camera, a flask (which looks suspiciously like a vibrator in the pic, heh), and a certificate. 😀

A photo of an iMac G5 sitting on a desk with the Mac OS X installer on screen.

A closeup of a computer screen with a block that's showing light pixels.

Yay! The iMac has finally arrived! 😀 Well... it actually arrived last week. And it was an US model, so they had to change the power supply over to an Australian one. I came in and grabbed it Thursday afternoon, powered it up... and there was this two-inch-thick lines of pixels down the side of the screen that were distorted and ghosting. 😞 I dropped it back on Friday, and the guys in the repair centre fixed it all up. 🙂 Now, waiting on the damn iPod Mini... there’s only thirty-five-thousand on back order. 😦

A photo of my bedroom, with three wall-mounted shelves underneath a window. On the top shelf is a CRT TV, a Nintendo GameCube, and two bookshelf speakers. On the second shelf is a CD rack full of CDs and an original Xbox. On the bottom shelf is another CD rack and a black stereo amplifier. On the floor next to the shelves is a graphite Power Mac G4, and next to that is a wooden corner desk with a built-in set of bookshelves sitting on top of it.

A photo of a large wooden corner desk with built-in bookshelves sitting on top of the shelves. In the middle is a PowerBook G4 with a 17" 4:3 display next to it and a white Apple keyboard in front, and the bookshelves are filled with books.

Yay! Dad was able to get the brackets for my extra shelf today, so without further ado... 😀😀 I <3 it.

A somewhat backlit side-on photo of a white man in jacket with a call centre headset on, in the middle of talking.

A photo of a 17" PowerBook G4 sitting on a desk alongside an opened box for a Canon PowerShot A75 camera (the camera that this photo was taken with).

A photo of my desk at work in a call centre. The same 17" PowerBook G4 and PowerShot box are visible, but next to it is my work machine, an eMac, with a black Ars Technica mug in front of it. To the left of the eMac is a grey call centre phone, with my mobile phone sitting on top of it.

YAY! My camera arrived! 😀 No keyboard, though. But still, eh. It ought to be here tomorrow. It was looking more forward to the camera anyway. 🙂 It’s a lot smaller than I expected (which is good). There’s fifty bazillion different options on it, so I’ll have to sit down and read through the manual when I get home. 🙂

A photo of a 17" PowerBook G4 sitting on a desk, with a full-size MIDI keyboard in front of it.

WOO! My keyboard arrived today! 😀 And it’s fucking huge. And I’m well aware I have absolutely no musical talent whatsoever. 😉 GarageBand has a metronome so you can keep time while you’re playing... I couldn’t keep time even with it on, heh. But dammit, I will persevere! 😉
