Did tons of writing and planning for some forthcoming presentations/sales pitches. Finished a BIG5 beautifier function/procedure for my WebCM package (well not quite finished, I had it working in python, have ported the code to PHP, but have no way to test it. Maybe I really should go buy that Apple TiBook.)
Generally speaking, good progress over the last couple of days. With no distractions, I work better.
Went to this place called Cafe E.S. Kimo for lunch. I have been off my daily routine of latte for the last few days. Had one there. It was reasonable. Cream on top was too thick, but that I could live with. RMB18 each, I don't suppose they sell a lot of those.
Quite a few sites have been blocked off by the national proxy servers, so I couldn't read about Paddy Ashdown vs Milosevic on the BBC website. I tried to setup an ssh tunnel use my server at home as a proxy, but couldn't get it to work. I am not going to spend more than half an hour of my precious time to fiddle with it, so maybe next time. I am quite annoyed.
Time to go for some food. Went to the resident's club last nite. Very quite, but food was okay. It's also gone much cheaper than before. It used to cost more to eat there than to eat out in town plus the taxi fare. Pity they have also stopped doing the buffets.
