11:50pm Oops! Almost forgot. Roomie* aren’t moving, so it’s up to me to get outta here sometime. They aren’t kicking me out or anything, and I can stay as long as I can stand the baby… till they need this room. So I figure sometime midmonth-oct I’ll have to start looking for a place. 11:32pm […]

11:30pm Well, the install was… ok. We had the server in and ready to go in under an hour, however, client setup and a few weird dhcp glitches meant we left there around 3. Back in Abby for 4ish to get food (breakfast lunch and dinner, all in one!) and (because the guy at the

Phew, finally back home. After a full day and night last night last night we were wasted. I’ll recap for you though (but read all about it in today’s column [archive.org link]). We (Iambe, Martyn (rouge from cobalt) headed out Saturday morning to surprise Squiz (arranged by Sillz) on his birthday. The trip down was

Welp, another weekend of not relaxing and doing nothing or not relaxing and getting stuff done, but oh well. First of all I picked up my white board today. It has replaced my Java 1.1 class hierarchy poster behind the door (stupid door is too solid to bash the little nails into 🙁 ). It’s

Something simple today. Well, this early morning anyway. An icq sent my way gave forth inspiration. Check out this page for the works (though it’s not the nicest page) of Alfred Lord Tennyson, my favorite poet. Here’s a sampling of (coincidently) my favorite poem by him… “The Eagle” He clasps the crag with crooked hands;

12:27am Well, apparenly I’m blind. When I did an install today to upgrade one of our clients to ISDN I missed the blindingly obvious (apparently). I looked under the desk where the server was and saw the “tel”, “mod1”, and “mod2” jacks. In my search for the ISDN jack I apparently missed the jack labeld
