A fairly good day...

As the post says, it's been a fairly good day, despite the fact that, even though I deleted my CoH Test file and still recieved rights issues when I tryed to install CoH test and CoV, and despite the fact that, on Saturday, the latest hurrican is going to make land fall somewhere near tampa. But other than that, it's been a good day.

No, I'm not being sarcastic. It really was a good day. The entire day felt good. The weather was perfect, and the clouds were enough to prevent the sun from frying us, and sparse enough from freezing us. It was the kind of day I wanted to just blow off everything and spend outside. Of course, I'm not the type of person to just blow stuff off, so... stupid job.

My job went pretty well. We finally got our new server in!!! =) =) =). It's the one we've been waiting for for a week, when it should have been overnighted. We needed it last weekend, not this coming up weekend of hurricane goodness. My manager is not to happy with Dell right now (though I think they threw in an extra hardrive, since we only ordered 3 three and we have 4, maybe five, that came with the server.) I now have started a todo list for my work, too. I'm hoping it will increase my productivity, but that would require me to write new items on the list. It may also require me to stop procrastinating...

I need something good for halloween... something that will really be.... neat. I don't know what I want yet, and I don't have money for a costume, but I need a good costume. Something that will be cool, and gothish.... but not normal gothish... like pseudo-halloween, not so black.... gothish.

For the last hour, I was having some of the people in the lab listen to my music. Oddly enough, they don't like metal. And by they, I mean Mike. Mike is an intresting character. He's a cool guy, for the most part anyway, and kind of shares similiar intrestes with me, but he doesn't like metal. And he wears a kilt. Which is kind of odd, since all I can do is stare at his legs and want to shave them. They are really, really, really, really hairy. And a kilt shouldn't be combined with that. NO skirtish thing should be combined with hairy legs. It hurts one's eyes.

If my CoH problems aren't fixed...

Sorry about the lateness of this post. I started typing it up last night, but at the spot right before the line, Will called. So, instead of finishing up this blog post, I ended up talking to a friend who I' haven't talked to for 6 months. (OK, more like 3 months, but similiar thing.) And ya, he likes the rambling letters I send...

He says he's doing ok. He also says that the portion size of the food they get in the millitary is small, so he looks foreward to the one day a week when he can leave base for a little while and go to Wally-World and fast food places. He also says he wakes up at 4:15 every morning and goes to sleep about 9 to 9:30 every night. That must be difficult for him since, when he still lived down here, he went to sleep at 4:15 in the morning, and woke up about noon. Though he is saying he enjoys millitary life, so that's a definate sign of him snapping under pressure... ok, maybe it's not, but I can have my weird ideas, right?

Anyway, he gave me his email address, and says he normally checks it once a week. He doesn't have internet access at the base, though. What he has to do is to borrow access from nearby wireless networks which are not encrypted. So I probally won't be able to send him any big files. Of course, writing is rarely a big file, and a lot cheaper to do it over the net than over the postal service. I still plan on writing him, though.

As for ideas in my head, I'm thinking about getting a web hosting service, and putting my writings, and some sample music from bands I like, onto the web. Who knows, maybe I can even write up some really inefficent programs and put them one the ste too. But I don't know when I'd be able to do that, since I am currently low on funds.

I still can not wait until thanksgiving!!!!!!!!!! =)
