Despite meaning to have a shower an hour and a half ago, I've failed to do so due to having Shiny KDE of Shininess to play about with. I now have Shiny Terminals of not quite optimum shininess because I can't work sed and hence re-write the eterm config file with 'use all these shiny pictures in this directory, look? see? shiny!', a taskbar full of useful shiny icons, and, uhm, no taskbar space.

But, ooh, look, shiny!

Despite general bouncy of shininess, I am actually rather tired and irritable and liable to create Shouty Doom at anyone who comes near me. Also I have no idea how to make the Shiny Psion Tools of Shininess talk to my USB/Serial cable, which is a shame, because they look very shiny indeed, including a proper clipboard-transfer thing, so I might possibly be able to start making informative day-style LJ posts like I used to.

Given that I skipped CICCU stuff in order to have a shower and go to sleep (oh, and to avoid having to deal with People and hence creating Shouty Doom as mentioned previously) I suspect I ought to do at least the latter in fairly short order. G'night.
