Friday was interesting. I think there were like 7 people in our department who actually showed up, and 5 were on 2nd floor. There was this thing for Network and User Services where a bunch of schools get together. Don't know much about it other than a lot of people don't think to highly of it. Anyways, got stuff done but it was a pretty slow day otherwise. I think the biggest thing I did was get stats for faculty home directory usage together. Friday night I watched
The Others. OK movie, but the ending sorta sucks and I think make the whole movie seems so boring once you've seen it. Saturday I slept in until around noon, and then for some reason decided to get motivated and pulled out the sawzall and took out one of the walls. Only took out one due to the fact that it was pretty much impossible to breathe down there (the filter on the fan after letting it run for a while is gray with drywall dust instead of blue) combined with I neglected to realize that the blade would be hot after cutting through metal and went to straighten it with my hand. I ended up finishing that computer (wiping and reinstalling Windows), which went pretty smooth. ME likes a lot of reboots though. I also managed to get my cell phone switched over into my name. A whole predicament there involved almost canceling and having to get new numbers. Apparently I'm approved for 10 cell lines though, which is just weird - nobody should ever need that many. Hopefully in a week or so I can invoke WLNP and transfer both lines to different accounts on a different provider though. After that was movie night with
Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl hosted by Nick. A bunch of people were there and it was a good time even though we didn't really get his surround sound working until afterwards (for some reason his dvd player was downconverting Dolby Digital to two channel but passing DTS through normal). Of course these get togethers end up with fun stuff and tonight we got a great quote from Tenley - "I bitch because I can." After that a few of us hung out and talked for a while. Nobodys's car got messed up either. Anyways the sawzall battery is dead and now charging, so I'm off to bed.
Any day that involves a sawsall is a sweet day. Way to get motivated and bust stuff brother.
