OK, so I sais to myself:“Hey, you live close to work, why the hell not bike in the summer? It’s close enough, it’s not like you couldn’t use the exercise?”I think, Hey, that’s a great idea!So I work up to it by biking to and from work at night, just to get the legs back.Then, […]

OK, so I installed Mandrake without killing the /home drive because, well, that’s kinda easier.But, with Mandrake, things are a little screwy at the best of times, and saving the /home actually made it a little more difficult to get things done.That, and I wanted a kind of fresh install, so I backed up my […]

Windows has been acting up in a rather irritating fashion as of late.So, I think it’s time for the bi-annual re-format-re-install!Yes, it’s time for RFRI, and this time, the bonus is a re-size of the C Drive! XP is just getting bigger and bigger, and 5 gigs just isn’t enough anymore. That’s fine, I’ll just […]

I did the one thing I was trying to avoid…. AN Day 3Stupid me, I’m writing this close to a week after the fact, and since stuff happened on Monday that took a lot of my attention, I’m having a hard time remembering what happened. But I’ll try. Got up and drive over to the […]

Just two short days to Anime North, probably four more until I’m out of cash again….And I get paid on Friday.I’m going to try and not just spend for the sake of spending like I have in the past, this time I have a list of good prices, and if things are below that, then […]

Wow, it’s been over a week since I last posted anything.Well, what’s happened since: -Went to a surprise party for Mike, that was cool, he was actually surprised!There was SOOOOO MUCH FOOD!I swear, there were like 20 people there, and food for 100! So many leftovers. Lucky me, I got to take some home! I […]

Ok, chalk another one up for the government. Seems that I ordered replica firearms, not toy guns.Regardless of the orange tip. Anyway, I’m going to fight it a little, but it’s not really worth it in the long run.But, in my quest to find a little bit of legle wiggling, I found this interesting court […]

Looks like I won’t be going to Toronto.Oh well, that’s just the way it is. But then again it might be next week.Who knows? Just got my 9 month evaluation(just came off probabtion) and it was all glowing reviews!And I get a 4% raise this year!WOOT! Good to know that all the work I’ve been […]

*SIGH*OK, so the smaller database, the one that took 19 hours to generate, well, it’s not good enough for the tests that I have to run.Well, no, that’s not entirely true.It’s not good enough for the IMPORTANT tests that I have to run.It’s good enough for the silly little tests that no one really cares […]

Things are starting to happen now.The one test that takes the longest, and the one I have to watch the least(of which I was hopeing to do overnight tonight) is the only test I can run today.It takes about 7 hours, and while it’s not REALLY a test, it’s the only way I can do […]
