Well, another day goes by…

First of all, I spent a lot of the day assembling the new ufies.org server. Too bad it doesn’t work! I don’t know what the problem is… the video card I got from the second hand store was bust (grumble), but something else is wrong. It boots to the first screen, but doesn’t do a memory check. I think it’s either the motherboard, the cpu, or the ram. Tomorrow I’ll start swapping parts with my main system to see what doesn’t work. Feh.

Well, today I took Iambe‘s [archive.org link] advice and asked someone out. I actually had a very nice coffee with a salesgirl from the local staples. Too bad she’s dating her Economics prof.

Feh.

On a much nicer note, I talked to a dear friend of mine now living in the UK (wavetollau). She’s well, and busy, and I woke her up at 10am <g> But I got to talk with her anyway. I’ll be going out there sometime this spring/early summer, and I can’t wait. I need to get out of here for a while.

Also, the peer2peer personals site (http://personals.ufies.userfriendly.org) [archive.org link], is going great. We have a lack of women looking for men, and an aboundance of 20something men looking for women (gee, go figure), but things seem to be going well. I’ve been making minor improvements to the site over the last bit, keeping things up and going. Many thanks and kudos to Iambe for her work getting the submissions in and updated.
