TV Promos
So I was watching one of my favorite shows, Lost, tonight. Immediately following they hyped a new show, Eli Stone. In order to get us to watch they promised a special message from Oceanic Airlines, the fake airline in Lost. What a cheap way to get viewers. I remember a few years ago in the Super Bowl all they talked about was the “code black” in Grey’s Anatomy coming up...

Bored
I’ve got plenty to do with work and school, but I am not at all interested in doing it. I need to take a day off to regroup.
Pretty good weekend
First workday of the week almost done. Pretty uneventful. I had a pretty good trip to Madison, WI this past weekend. Went down to watch some Gopher puck. The scores were a little disappointing, a loss and a tie. I actually forgot that regular season hockey can end in a tie and was a little surprised when the game ended “prematurely”. Stupid Badgers. After the game we hit the...
I'm tired...
… but for no particular reason, other than I’m lazy. I’m going to Madison, WI tomorrow for the Gopher/Badger’s hockey games. Hopefully the Badgers will suck more than the Gophers and we can escape with a couple W’s.
Another thing...
Have you ever forgot your keys, cell phone, etc and then felt naked the rest of the day? I forgot my cell phone when I went to lunch today and totally felt out of place. It’s strange.
Whatever
So last night as I’m talking with Tech Support for my website issues, it suddenly begins to work. Why does that always happen? I think it’s a conspiracy.
Comcast and Personal Web Pages
So for the past few months I’ve been having issues with my webspace on Comcast.net (my ISP). I designed and maintained a website for my high school class (AHS ‘99). A few months ago Comcast updated their server or something which caused my page to disappear and stop working. I finally figured out how to get my site back, but now the features that previously worked don’t...

Waiting
So now I’m just waiting for classes to start back on Monday. Work has been pretty relaxed the last few weeks. No students around and not many calls to field from angry parents. That will all change very soon as we move into the school year. My class this semester will likely take up a lot of time so that will add more to my currently meager plate. I also need to figure out what...
Back to IT
Back at work today. Again a fairly laid back week. Nothing too exciting. More app review and making sure these youngin’s are doing what they’re supposed to for college. I’m a little behind but should be able to catch up with the relaxed schedule. Next week will be different. Classes are back in session and that will add an additional headache. I am fairly pumped though. ...
Boring
Another boring weekend day. Got up this morning and went to church. (it’s the 40th anniversary of my church!) After that went to Sam’s Club and bought some groceries. Came home and watched some football and took a nap. Made some dinner and played some Guitar Hero. I have the day off tomorrow and hopefully I can get the ambition to clean my condo.
Lazy
I am the laziest person on Earth. I woke up today at about 1 pm. I proceeded to do nothing productive all while thinking of productive things to do. I am actually doing some laundry, but other than that a very non-productive Saturday. PS. Go Gophers and go Tubby!
First Post
I’m sitting in my cube at work, debating on the rest of my day. I’ve got a couple of phone calls later today, but other than that I’m done. Hooray weekend. Three days of it thanks to the personal holiday I’m taking on Monday.
