G’nite all!

… tonight was the first “tech” run-through for UW-RF Dance Theatre this year. Basically the dancers go through all the pieces for the technical crew (including myself, who runs the sound system) so we can start planning what we need to get done to make an awesome show. I’m pretty psyched for this year. It should be a good show. I think we’ve been steadily improving over the past 5 years or so. Some of that has to do with better equipment, but a fair amount is due to the fact that for the last 3-4 years, the technical crew has remained pretty much the same so we work well together.
Everybody should mark (at least) one evening out of Mar 31 – Apr 3rd for UWRF Dance Theatre! Performances are at 8pm. I’ll seeya there! It’s flutterbyefred‘s last concert … so I want her to have good audience support!

… for posting this late.
I did a housecall tonight and didn’t get home until about 10:20. At that point, I needed to shovel the driveway, so I did that and then put the truck in the garage. When I came in of course I had to install the RAM that I had gotten for the G5 to bump it up to 1G. This took two attempts because on the first try I forgot to put the two cpu cooling fans back in (btw, for those who don’t know … this thing has 9 fans). I discovered the mistake when I turned it on and there were bright glowing red lights and the fans that were in the case were going louder than normal. Anyway, it’s now installed and back together and working beautifully. :D
At this point, I was a little wired. I still am somewhat actually, which is why I’m writing this post … I need to calm down. I need to think calming thoughts. This music isn’t helping, so I should probably just head to bed and lay and stare at the ceiling.

P.S. I got yelled at before I had a chance to post!
