I had a nice spectrum of emotion today. I was sad about the situation with Liz, QT and I and how it currently is, but I look forward to the future with hope that we can be happy. I had the joy of finally nailing a problem that’s been frustrating me at work … it only took about 5 hrs of scripting. How important can easy-to-use printers in a computer lab be anyway? It’s not like students have to print out assignments in the digital age, now do they? I experienced frustration in a meeting that dragged out longer than needed (what else is new). I had the joy of delivering a new laptop with MacOS X to a user. :) I had the fear of a vehicular incident when a deer ran out in front of me on my way home … I missed it by about a truck-length … not sure where its friend went, but it didn’t run into me.
My house is cold lately. Not just physically … but it doesn’t feel cozy either. I’m not sure why. That may be contributing to my boredom and tendency to veg when I’m here. I can work on computer projects … notably my goal of getting Cyrus IMAP working with seive scripts (anybody out there with experience building SASL with MySQL authentication?). I should also finish up the photo archive for last year’s Dance Theatre concert. The concert is coming up April 1-5th. One of my coworkers is working on equipping the theatre with subwoofers so we can have some bass this year. I’m a little skeptical of his thoughts on using computer subwoofers for this … but I guess we’ll see.
It’s hard to believe there are only two more days left in the week. I don’t have any plans for the weekend. I don’t plan on cutting wood or visiting my parents. Not sure what I’ll do.
