I think I may make it to bed tonight before midnight. What a strange concept. Course, all the times I’ve done this lately I just lie awake in bed and say to myself “wow, I’m going to get soooo much
sleep tonight” till I fall asleep 3 hours later.
Got an email from a guy today who had a dream about me. No, not that kind of dream you perverts, but it was bizzare. Let me quote a bit.
I had a weird dream last night and you were in it. Well, by name only.Here’s how it went: A friend of mine told me he was cutting peoples hair in the style of old rock musicians. He asked if he should cut mine like <some name I can’t remember> or maybe — here it is! — Arcterex. I said no, ’cause I didn’t know what he looked like anyway. I only knew his songs.
Then there was a part with some scotsmen playing Waldhorns (those big horns you have in Austria) with bagpipes stuck on the end. This is not a joke. I realy dreamt it. (so it must be true)
Isn’t that weird?
I wonder what it means.
It probably means you have unresolved issues with your mother after she flushed your pet hamster or something…
So screw the cleaning, I can do that later. I was doing installs all day, had a workout tonight, even did my crunches (inspired by T, who does 125 a night (I’m at like… 50 or so)), and updated ufies with all sorts of new and (maybe) interesting stuff. So I’ll let myself relax a bit by sleeping tonight.
The installs today were actually really nice and easy for a change. There were problems of course, but as usual they were client related. The first was a T1 install, and except for plugging in the eth0 and eth1 in the wrong way, no problems happened getting things going as far as net connection or communication between the lan and the server. Getting the stupid DHCP server to give out the right gateway and dns info was. I don’t know the NT dhcp server stuff, hell, I only really dealt with dhcp in linux! The only real “D’oh” moment was when I was trying to surf and had forgotten to unlock myself.
oops
For those who don’t know our server, head to the site and learn all about it! (blatent plug)
The second install (putting a co-location box in an ISP) went so smooth it was magic. Plug. Plug. Ping. Working! I’m still waiting for lightning to strike…
Lots of work to do tomorrow, so a semi-early night (maybe I should rant less to decrease the time I spend in between saying that I’m just going to do a couple of updates and finishing them. Did that make sense? Hell, I donno, I don’t read what I write. My fingers are stopping working now so I think that’s a sign.
