Dumb Europe, dumb Europe, dumb Europe.

I'm wondering when the bit I get to sleep is. I was all set for an early night, then the beeper went off at 11:30pm and kept going off every five or ten minutes until 2:30am, when in sleep-deprivation-addled desperation I rebooted both boxes (which is standard for the NT boxes but not for the Linux ones), which apparently was what I should have done in the first place. If they go off again tonight I should apparently just switch them off (via Remote Insight). Hooray. Then I should get the developer responsible and wire 240 volts to where his genitalia would be, set to switch on whenever the problem occurs.

This evening I am going to Ikea at fucking Lakeside, there to seek MALM bed, LACK coffee table, FJUS light shelving, BETA plant mover and REKTANGEL vase, and to try the EKTORP couch. Your advice and experience of any of these is most welcomed.

The tabletop dishwasher we bought via megabitch and korenwolf is definitely the finest new household good ever discovered, even after doing a rough calculation of just how much it costs in electricity.
