Aaargh!

I've got a job application form to fill in, and I can't do it because the neighbours are hammering and drilling and sawing, and the noise is driving me scatty! I can't concentrate at all! There doesn't seem to be a single day when they aren't doing some sort of DIY. It's Sunday, give it a fucking rest! AAAAAAAAAAARrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The past couple of days, I've been playing Star Sonata, an MMORPG set in space. Like all the MMORPGs I've come across, the experience devaluing graph resembles a catastrophe curve, as does the rewards/dangers graph for missions. Plus, there's no information available - there's a quickstart guide and a tutorial, but they barely scratch the surface of the interface and playability info. There is a wiki, but it's so badly structured you can't find anything of use. Needless to say, I shall not be playing it any more. If it was a single-player game, not online, and if it had better documentation, I might be interested in continuing with it, but not as it is.

Woohoo!

Well, it's official. I have have now achieved what I came to London to do. Someone is paying me to do something I enjoy.

I am stage managing a theatre production!

The production is "The Woodcut" at The White Bear Theatre, Kennington, running from Tuesday 31st July to Sunday 5th August (7.30pm Tue-Sat, 5pm Sun). I was down there this evening setting up the lights and programming cues into the desk. Took a while, 'cause it was a bloody stubborn desk, but we got there in the end.

If you can, go see it, 'cos it's a profitsharing production, and I'd rather like it to actually make a profit so's I can share in it.

Now all I need to do, is make sure it isn't the last time it happens as well as the first.
