Lately updating this has seemed like just another annoying thing to do. I think I finally figured out why - it requires thinking. Lately at work I've been trying to push away from more of the tedious stuff and to planning. This requires thinking, but then I get distracted on some other thing that comes up, so I have all these different threads going on at once. By the end of the day I don't want to do anything. I go home, sit and just read tech stuff, and do nothing else until bed. I think tomorrow I may try and not read any tech stuff and just listen to music. It's been a while since I listened to the whole Go Home concert... Tuesday otherwise went pretty well. Spent some time with the Macs and AD again. We got them binding properly. Seems a big annoyance with the current version is they have to be bound by a user account in the domain to which they are binding. Even though we have permissions assigned to normal tech accounts for the Windows side, we'll have to use something else for the Macs (probably end up being a binding-only account). We found some interesting DNS stuff, but then that stuff got shot down, so we still have poking to do as to why some stuff has worked and others have not worked. Between Tuesday and Wednesday though I think we're pretty much set for some sort of solution this summer. Also spent some time talking to Quan about how we need to migrate people properly because of the way the Mac deals with resource forks through AFP versus SMB and WebDAV. Probably gonna end up with some sort of document. Lunch on Wednesday was Olive Garden for the Soup and Salad deal. The waiter was very quick on getting us more of both before we needed them, and even left us the cheese grater (and swapped it out twice when we ran out of cheese - yea we used a lot). That was a good lunch. Eddington's is tomorrow with the Chicken Potato Chowder - hard to go wrong with Zuppa one day and that the next. After work on Wednesday went home and watched
Ice Age. While the story isn't that great, it does hold the interest just enough and the animation is good.
