For the past 4 years I’ve been using mozilla and was happy with it but
lately the nightly builds are extremely unstable with multizilla and so
I decided to leave it. Now I’m happy with Firefox after using it for a
couple of days. It seems to me that firefox is lighter than it used to
be when I tried it around v0.6 I think. I’ve installed Tabbrowser, User
Agent Switcher and ProxyButton extensions which gives me everything I
liked about multizilla and mozilla.

What a long day today was! First I went to work and it wasn’t that bad
except that I found out that one of my favorite managers (not mine) is
quiting and going to MTC instead, which is a total lose for our company.
Then I went home took a nap and my long day started. Got a call from
Midas as they were delivering our audio tower, TV table, and computer
chair. Went to our apartment and it turned out that the chair they
delivered had like a hole in the sponge or something. I let the guy
finish putting up our furniture together then I called the showroom to
have the problem solved, which they did without any problems but now I
will have to wait till sunday for them to exchange the chair. We went to
AlGhanim Electronics after that where we bought a wet/dry vacuum
cleaner, a small rechargeable vacuum, a toaster, water filter, an alarm
clock, a 5000W voltage regulator, and a safe. I was afraid that the
stuff wouldn’t fit in my car but thanks god they did except for the safe
where they are going to deliver on sunday. After that we went to sultan
center. Since the apartment has just been built, it needs cleaning badly
from all the dust. We bought all the cleaning stuff we were able to find
and we were so disappointed as we were thinking that we will find
everything at sultan center salmiya but instead we now have to pass
Mishref Co-op early in the morning to get the rest of the stuff we
couldn’t find. Tomorrow will be a longer day as we have to clean the
apartment AND pack ALL our stuff to have ready for the move on saturday.

I can’t wait till I finish and furnish our new apartment. We just have
one bedroom, one bathroom, one kitchen, and one living room but it is
taking us ages to just furnish this thing. We can’t seem to find
anything we like and when we do, the displayed item is the last piece.
Since we don’t have much room we had to either decide whether I get to
have a computer desk in the living room OR get a dining table and put my
computer stuff on half of it. We decided to go with the later especially
since I don’t really care as long as it’s a place where I could put my
puters on. Anyhow, we went to a few places and finally found the perfect
one at Home Center. It was in our price range which was KD200 and it had
8 chairs. Also, it was 1.5m by 1.5m so it’s perfect as I would get 1.5m
by 0.75m. We go to other places in Farwaniya as well to look some more
and then decide to go ahead and buy the table. We also needed an audio
tower for my electronic equipments so we go to Midas and buy a matching
audio tower that we have seen before. We go back to Home Center and my
wife asks the guy whether they have it in stock and the guy says yes. We
go to pay for it and at the counter after waiting for frigging 15 minutes
the guy on the counter tells us that the display is the last piece. It
was all scratched up and he was like I’ll give you %15 off on it. Man
that pissed me off especially I had my new Mac mini at home waiting for
me and I’m wasting my time there. Lesson learned: make sure the item is
in stock before going and buying another matching item.

I’m going to be moving soon to a new apartment and so I’m getting new
furniture. I almost got everything I wanted but still missing the most
important piece; the computer desk. I haven’t found the perfect one yet
and don’t know where to start looking but I went to Midas, Ikea, and The
One but still haven’t found the perfect one yet. I’m going to Farwaniya
tomorrow to look further and hope I found one soon as I am moving
hopefully this weekend.
