After tomorrow I should be able to cut back on the painkillers, and hopefully calm down a bit and start work again.

What's being keeping me busy for the last couple of days has being chrome. Didn't install correctly the first time, or the second time either. Then I fixed up my security software and suddenly it works.
I need a new laptop, one processor just doens't cut it nowdays, apart from that it's not too bad.
I would however say that they really need to do something about addons. I'm missing my firefox addons.. I use a lot (40+) in firefox and trying to get used to online life without them is awkward. However I'll keep on with it for now, mainly because it's faster...
All in all not bad for a beta.. Though like many I suspect that google were pushed into releasing it slightly early once that comic leaked..

(Though the way everything else seems to going at the moment I'm kind of surprised I got it working at all.

At least two people in this world love you so much they would die for you.
At least fifteen people in this world love you in some way.
The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.
A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don’t like you.
Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.
You mean the world to someone.
If not for you, someone may not be living.
You are special and unique.
There is someone that you don’t even know exists, who loves you.
When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.
When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely
turned your back on the world.
When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won’t get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it.
Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.
Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know.
If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great.

I was at a meeting, where, how, why just didn't matter. Something I said impressed someone. So I was flown to the capital to meet some high powered idiot who was also impressed with what I said. So impressed that I met the US ambassador. Then before I knew it I was a guest of honor at the Whitehouse.
And that is the ultimate nightmare.
I'll stay away from politics here but ah.. At the moment at least I would prefer to stay well clear of there. It was a weird dream for some, everywhere, it would be an honor. But for me, no.. At least not until after January next year..
I'll finish this first (quick) post with what is my favorite quote at the moment.
"If I am not for myself, who will be for me? If I am not for others then who will be? And if now now, when?"
