I’m not dead, just keeping busy.
Work is going well. I’m still training instead of training. However that will end sooner than later. Thursday I got a 20″ LCD for my desk. Now I just need cable or satellite.
Yesterday I did some yard work at the house I’m renting. There are some shrubs that need to be trimmed back, some areas that need to be mulched, and a lot of old sticks and leaves that need to be disposed of. And I’m getting down with some serious herbicide as I try to destroy a bunch of poison ivy and wild raspberry.
Yesterday was also computer surgery day. My desktop got a new cooling fan. That repair was approximately number 112 for the machine. The old fan had decided to start making a pleasant grinding sound. I’m not sure what caused such a problem. However, the copious amounts of dust caked throughout it may have affected the bearings.
The laptop received a 4x memory upgrade. It went from 512mb to 2GB. That is keeping the hard drive from being called upon for virtual memory duty, and that is a good thing.
