Friday was decent. Went to Qdoba for lunch. More miscellaneous stuff at work, I seem to remember doing something big, but apparently it wasn't since i don't remember offhand. Friday night I sat around and did nothing for a bit. Ended up figuring out how to get the web browser on my phone to work for free rather than paying Verizon $7/month or whatever for it. Should be interesting to see how useful that actually is though. I have a feeling it'll be one of those never-use features. Also found the voicemail direct-access number, which is a useful number to have. Saturday I got up and spent a few minutes cleaning up files. Turns out I was a bit over quota on one of the file servers at work, so had to clean some of that up. I'm under quota now. And given how much transient data from the system junk bin is part of the stuff that's left, nobody else has an excuse to be over either. :) After a few minutes of cleanup it was time to get ready and drive out to Meghan's place in the middle of nowhere. Since she's leaving for the National Guard on Sunday and will be gone for almost 6 months, she had a going away party. Most of the non-relatives were Bethel people, so there wasn't too much meeting new people, mainly just hanging out. Turns out that one of her uncles knows some of my extended family through his work, so that was a bit of an unexpected twist in the day. After that I went to my parents' house and got the CD burner working, and also visited Sam's Club to pick out a printer for my sister. It was free samples day which is always fun. Picked up a bunch of dew to stock up my office and bring my average cost back down to just about $.50/bottle. Sams always has it for a couple bucks less per 24 pack than the other places, which is nice. After that spent some time poking at Avalon. Homes finished restoring at like 18:50, and Apps went quick and was done by shortly after 23:00. Now all the public stuff should be available, so just have to get the ITS internal stuff restored. I did bring up all the shares though, so we'll see if it's stable before I send out something about it being up tomorrow. Then we can run a full backup on it too and be done with this whole thing. It's just too bad I had to turn the Mac services back on. AFP really sucks, but unfortunatly people are still running stuff older than 10.2. Hopefully the indexes for it will rebuild quick so performance goes back to reasonable.
