Lots to talk aobut today.. well, not really.. but still..
Forgot to mention yesterday that we went to the cinema (*shock* *horror*).. ok, for anyone who knows me, that's not much of a surprise.. but I thought I'd give a little film review.
We went to see 'Spy Game' (not sure if that's one word or two).. which, despite it's uninspiring title (have you noticed all the crappy film titles recently?) it was actually pretty decent. I was worried it would be a big action film, but the action was just enough to make it interesting. The plot was cool and well thought out. Robert Redford was fantastic, and Brad Pitt was also pretty good. For some reason, although I think Pitt is an absolutely fantastic actor, I've been a bit down on him recently.. not really wanting to see him in anything. This is the first film I've seen him in for ages.. and although his part didn't really show off his acting skills, I feel much more happy watching him in films again. I know all that doesn't make sense to anyone but me, but still.. it's a cool film.. go see it :)
On a less interesting note.. I'd just like to say that I *hate* socks. No, not the socks you wear, I'm talking the protocol that works as a proxy server here. I've been playing around with new irc clients.. or at least trying to. BitchX I couldn't work out how to configure it to use a socks proxy. With Epic4 I found out how to compile with socks, spent ages fiddling with the config file, then when compiling it came up with 'can't find socks.h'.. I've searched the net, and apparently lotsa programs use socks.h.. but have I got a copy? Nope. Despite having multiple pieces of software that work with socks fine, I don't have one. And with the other half out, and my linux guru friends not online, I'm at a loss. I don't understand. I was really proud of myself for going through the config, and discovering lotsa stuff. And I really don't wanna have to use runsocks. It's a nasty program, and unneccessary. And so I wait for my boyf to come home and give me some ideas. And then he'll think I'm useless :/
Oh well. Enough rabbiting on for now.
