Short week, but nothing too eventful. Tuesday was L&O day with pizza. Wednesday was Nick buying a car, and Dave skipped out since he was sick so I gave him a lift up there. Got a free lunch at Noodles out of the deal though. Thursday and Friday the boss was sick. Luckily Dave wasn't though, as that would have really been no fun. Had a meeting with some ITS people and HR to sort through some organizational stuff and how it should be stored and handled for some processes. Effectively was a crash course in how the whole system is set up and stuff for me, which was interesting. Hopefully once it's sorted out it'll be easier for everyone. Friday was lunch at Chipotle, which is much to rare of an occurance.
There was more of the what's lately become usual talking with people too. Friday night I started looking over some stuff and thinking about it. Saturday I ended up writing a bunch of documentation and sorted out some other things. A handful of knowledgebase articles and an email were the result. Hopefully that will solidify some policies and push other people to write more and also help this whole situation a bit.
Besides the above there was lots of sitting and just listening to music to relax. I need a better music listening chair though. Maybe I need to rearrange some stuff from upstairs. Saturday went out to dinner with the family after the soccer and football stuff they went to. That's becoming a trend on Saturdays, but I'm not arguing. My dad is continuing to take a ton of pictures with my camera - really liking it in combination with some lenses he's been renting. Hopefully his will come in soon so I can have mine back.
Sunday started off with Salem. The parking lot was amazingly empty, even though for some reason I was thinking church started 15 minutes later than it did so was late. Actually that's how it started after I woke up. Last night was the power outage fun at Bethel. Luckily I didn't have to go in, but Brent (and I think Doug) were there shutting down things. All my stuff in my office stayed up, as the outage was only a bit over an hour. A few fewer problems to deal with. When I got up I only had to start SMTP on the exchange server as that apparently didn't get started before the outage (it was down for an unrelated reason). After church was just sitting around relaxing for most of the day. Starting in late evening was movie marathon. First movie was Poolhall Junkies. I really liked that one. The soundtrack especially seemed better done than most. Next was Spawn. That's an odd movie, but decent. Finished off with The Professional, which is another good movie. And that concludes the weekend, or at least the interesting part.
