Nothing big starting off the day today. Sorta watched my new phone all day. I seem to get service pretty much everywhere except inside one of the server rooms which is underground. I can get it in the hallways outside the room, so I think it may have something to do with one lead wall and a rather solid combinations of multiple layers of metal on all sides. :) I can get service fine in the lab which sorta amazed me. Lunch was with Sheldon who I hadn't talked to much recently so that was fun. He's getting stressed out but should all be worth it since he gets a nice long vacation... After lunch a couple hours later there was a department meeting so that made the afternoon seem really quick too. After work went to the Verizon store with my dad again go get the one number transfered (yes, the port took around 14 hours for my phone and around 20 for my dad's - that's rather quick). Unfortunately that's not actually according to policy and the one guy who was gonna break it (and I think got us better deals on the phones than we should have gotten) wasn't working. So went back to my parents house and talked to Customer Service and got my part of it done, and hopefully they'll get the rest done within another day or two so everyone can start using their phones normally (I think we currently have 3 phones on a plan that's like $9/month for 30 shared minutes, which is sorta funny - effectively some kind of placeholder plan in my opinion). At least my phone's all done and I don't have to worry about it. And for a couple months I have unlimited TXT messaging so I'm having fun with that and stuff like IM and will probably set up and debug some data query type stuff. One thing I sorta forgot to mention. Tuesday over lunch I went to National Camera with the intention of buying the Digital Rebel. Turns out they were out and had a nice long waiting list (28 people IIRC). So I looked and newegg was out, so ended up ordering online from circuitcity.com. That shipped today and should be here tomorrow so I'll be happy when that shows up. Unfortunately my order from newegg with the 512MB CF Ultra2 card isn't scheduled to show until Friday so looks like I'm gonna try and borrow a 128MB one for a bit. I have a feeling I won't get much of anything productive done tomorrow night either...
