Ugh. It’s so hard to keep this blog up to date when there’s things happening all the time.
Recently we went to Tangalooma Wild Dolphin Resort. We’re not really into that sort of thing but it was ok for free :) Emily and Isaac fed the dolphins with us but not really. It rained so they were both cold and tired. Isaac probably faired better with the actual feeding because he couldn’t tell there was a big, scary animal just there. Emily was excited until we hit the water, when she held on to me like crazy. Once we were out of the water she was excited again.
Emily and I went and saw the Wiggles on Monday. We had crap seats so next time we’ll be ready (they’re coming back twice next year apparently). Despite being far away, it was still ok and the atmosphere was better than you get from a TV. I was a bit disappointed because the show was called “Racing to the Rainbow” yet it had only 2 songs from the DVD in it. We went and bought the DVD so Emily would know all the songs! Sam, the new yellow wiggle was fine. I was worried that he’d sound heaps different from Greg but it’s not very noticeable. It was interesting to see the strange things that happened as a result of being live. Whoever was in the henry suit was being silly, making up words that Anthony had trouble repeating. Emily asked for a balloon and I told her she could have one afterwards. They were $10! I can’t imagine what the rest of the merchandise cost.
Trolltech is moving two buildings down the road tomorrow. Today was mostly spent packing things into boxes. The plan is to be back up and running by 10am on Monday so some of us are meeting for breakfast at the cafe around the corner.
My SL-A300 has died. The battery got flat and just stopped holding a charge. I’ve spent the last few days trying to get my other Zaurus (SL-5000D) running. I always thought it used RAM for storage but it’s got 10MB user flash. I think the problem is the same that I discovered one day on the A300, where a flat battery causes the device to think you’ve done a hard reset. I came up with a solution for that on the A300 that should transfer to the 5000D just fine. I’m not quite there yet but it shouldn’t be too much longer before I can have my calendar back. I thought about trying to get my data on to a Greenphone but I don’t have a reliable backup for that yet and my phone is being used by someone else (their phone had an old modem firmware that can’t handle Qtopia 4.2).
Update 15 December 2006
I found not one but two spiders at my dad’s house last night. Luckily people were there to kill them for me :)
