it's been a few days, not overly eventful for me, but enuff that i spose i should catch things up.

monday night around 740, we lost power. in town. and neighboring town. i was washing a cover for my new ikea comforter when the lights in my bathroom went out (yes, by hand) and damned if 10 mins later (after alerting K&L) the pager went off. turns out, the timing of the problem was conincidental, but i called facilities just to make sure. (all was well, and it was an unrelated issue i was able to resolve later) power was restored 70 mins later, and there was no mention of it in the weekly paper that arrived today. chatted w/K for a few mins and we were glad that it was at least cool (yet muggy) when we lost power so it wasn't going to be a killer if we didn't get power back.

yesterday i felt like shit when i got home, and i think i managed to get something at the salad bar yesterday that didn't agree with me as i was fine in the morning, but as the afternoon wore on, i started feeling less well and by the time i got home, i was pretty much non-functional. i called M to postpone dinner, but she came over anyways. by the time she got here, i had managed to mix up a banana drink (banana + milk + ice + blender) that seemed to help settle things, so i was feeling better.

DH & i went up to visit our network helper/consultant to go over some impending upgrades to the network. reasonably productive meeting and a few interesting ideas came out as to how to handle the plethora (how's that for a word?) of wireless laptops we have that are fucking up our IP range. we'll see what happens, and we'll be talking on wednesday to go over some of the plans.

otherwise, work has been fairly quiet the last few days which can be viewed as good or bad. DH is off until after the 4th, so i get to hold the server fort down. rebuilt a server that was being uncooperative (it's nice to be able to say fuck you server and then nuke it. good thing it wasn't in production yet.)

work is work. i could bitch about the weather which has sucked of late, or how much it cost me to fix my morceau blanc de merde (way too fucking much). i thought about it, but fuck it. i need to think about going to bed.

night all.
