[ mood | tired ]

Well, the Wednesday glums stayed around. Packed up my stuff from the office, I now have 2 monitors and 3 computers, as well as several boxes of crap in my living room, awaiting the space in the new building. Not sure how long it will be here. Not really sure what I'll be doing, and where either. Trying VERY hard not to fret about it, when it comes to work I like things nice and routine and stable, and this is none of those. Oh well. Came home, checked on feezles, and went over to Amythest's. She knew I was in a bad mood, so she made dinner, a very nummy combo of kielbasa sausage, Stove Top stuffing, and cheese. Probably would have been better if my stomach wasn't feeling twitchy. Then we watched NCIS episodes. Including one with Danica Mckellar as a cute nerd girl. *Happy fox* Came home, played with ferrets, took a shower, and now getting ready for bed. Tomorrow will be a busy day of moving crap from old office to storage and/or the Shoggoth Pit. Not fun, but it should go by fast. Lets hope I get some decent sleep tonight, I need it. Hope everyone has a good night, and a good Thursday. I probably won't be around til the night.

It's Wednesday, and I've got the glums. Don't wanna be here, rather be at home with the ferrets. Or my book, hiding in my book would be a good thing. But no, I'm a good employee and at the shoggoth pit. Today I'll be packing up my workstations and hauling them home for storage until we go to the new building. Not sure where I'm going to store them, but I'll worry about that later. Tonight is Amythest time, which should be good. Not much else going on, so I'm going to get going, catch ya later.

Well, the work be almost over. Didn't do much while LJ was down, worked some, answered some Minion questions, tinkered with ping.fm. Got it setup so I can update via mobile to Twitter, Facebook and LJ all at once from my mobile. Good for those moments when I care to share what I'm up to, and not at the computer. Don't worry, I don't plan on posting a blow by blow of my life. No posts of 'going to dinner', unless the dinner be post worthy ;)

No wild plans for tonight...if I feel brave, I may go grocery shopping... but I have a feeling I'm just going to stay in, watch tv and play wow. Oh, and eat leftovers. Quiet vulpine evening. Started 'Drums of Chaos' today while on break, so far quite happy. Yeah, I finished what I had been reading last night before bed. So yes, happy fox with Cthulhu in Roman times.

Really not much else going on. 30 min to go, then time to flee. Yay for fleeing. And for home :)

Before it all goes karfluki... [18 Nov 2008|09:12am]
[ mood | good ]

Before the great Blackout of 2008 I feel the need to post. Not about anything important ;) Had a good night of WoW, CSI: Miami and ferret time. Slept good, save I was dreaming about having to setup firewalls. Now at work, wondering how the slow day will go without LJ. Oh well, I have audio books and zombie games and twitter, I should be amused enough. And if that doesn't work, I have work ;) Good luck, see you after (I hope) ;)

Conversation between me and the Minion. [17 Nov 2008|03:28pm]
[ mood | amused ]

Had an amusing chat with the Minion today. He's looking at a spam complaint, and has questions.

Minion: I'm looking though the httpd logs on this server.
Me: Why are you doing that ?
Minion: Well, the spam is a nobody spam, so it had to be generated by a script off a website.
Me: Not necessarily, did you already check the /tmp and /var/tmp for files stashed ?
Minion: *short pause* Are you saying that's a good idea, or saying it because you already know what it is ? And how do you already know what it is ?
Me: *chuckle* Soon, you too will know the power of the dark side.

It's good to have a minion to freak out.

The Turkey = fail [17 Nov 2008|02:27pm]
[ mood | amused ]

Forgot today was the annual Shoggoth Pit turkey dinner. Went for a walk, and came in via the old tech entrance. Where half the company was sitting around eating, then yelling at me to get food. Got food, fled to my office to eat. Bleah, turkey. I do not like turkey, sam I am ;) Never have been a fan of the bird. Enjoyed the cornbread and corn much more. So glad me and Mom aren't having to deal with turkey on Turkey Day. Going to a Soup Fest at Nymaz's place instead, much cooler in my book.

[ mood | good ]

Well, it's Monday, and not a bad monday at that. At work, found out from the boss that we'll be working from home next week. Yay :) And yes, that means really working, not just leveling in WoW. ;) Gotta make sure I have lots of tv shows queued up on Netflix for next week ;)

Had a good night last night, came home from Amythest's place around 9:30 or so, played with ferrets, watched some TV, snagged a shower and was in bed by midnight. Slept good, fairly solid even.

No wild plans for this week. Tonight will be leftover chinese food, then probably WoW, then ferret time and bedtime. Tomorrow will be grocery shopping and errand running, then home, dinner and WoW. Kinda dull, but I'll take dull ;)

Not alot else going on, guess I should get back to the Shoggoth Pit. Ciao :)

Been a busy day so far. Got up, cleaned the ferret cage. I still love the new cage, scrubbing down the floor was easy as pie. Then I went, snagged Mom, and we went out for breakfast. Then grocery shopping for her for the month. Dropped her off, went by the store myself to get a few things for me. Came home, destressed from shopping for a bit, then went out to get ferret food, then over to Amythest 's to do laundry and hang out. Watching 'Nightmare on Elm Street' right now, and waiting on dinner to be delivered. Life is good. ;)

Had a good night. [16 Nov 2008|01:09am]

Had a very nice night. Went out to [info]thesilia and R.'s wedding reception. Was me, Amythest, [info]techie_, [info]strongbow, and Skipper of no website driving up to the middle of nowhere Texas. Got there, hung around with P & H, as well as [info]bookpixie and [info]kyojinkobu, whom we haven't seen in a long time. Was a nice crowd of people, got to meet several Guild mates from WoW. Came back home around midnight, then got coerced ask nicely by the lovely [info]luckyckljw to help her figure out some Ekiga foo. It's kinda fun, and not just looking at the cute girl making Mac and Cheese ;) Need to figure out why it didn't work on linux though. Oh well, will figure that out another day.

Going to bed in a little while, tomorrow is taking Mom to the store, then errands and laundry. Wee.

New Desk [15 Nov 2008|02:21pm]
[ mood | tired ]

Ok, setup. All is good. Got Shub-Internet and Yog-Sothoth back up and running, the wires are neater, and I still have room for stuff. I need to move the TV up a bit, make it more watchable. But yay for new deskness.

Just finished putting my 'new' desk together. Now to unload all the crap from the old desk, shut down the computers, move them over. Put new desk in place of old desk, hook everything back up and see how it goes :) Wish me luck.

Karma can be amusing some times. [14 Nov 2008|05:54pm]
[ mood | amused ]

Well, karma decided to be amusing today. Boss left early, I decided to cut out around 4. Start driving home, and get a call from the Boss. He needs me to pack up and go to the data center, the NOC has no network. The servers are fine, but the techs can't hit anything. Tell boss I don't have my laptop, start looking to turn around and go back, when I remember...I have Uxia at home. Tell boss I'll be there in about 10 min. Head home, grab laptop, go to DC. Grab Cisco cable and try to console in to the PIX firewall. Eep, Uxia doesn't have minicom install (terminal program to talk to firewalls and switches, among other things.) Start to curse, then remember that the server build area has a seperate connection than the NOC, aka it should work. Get on net, download minicom, run back, plug in to pix...no stuff. Crap. Tinker with configs, no dice. Find another cable, wee...I'm in. Call boss, we find the errant access list foo that was causing the problem, remove it. Yay, we can haz network.

So yeah, instead of getting home an hour early, I get home 30 min late ;) At least I could fix it, and the boss thinks I rock. Worth being late :)

Thank Cthulhu it's Friday [14 Nov 2008|12:08pm]

[ music | Iced Earth - Damien ]

Well, it's Friday. Yay Friday. At work, just finished packing up my old desk and stashing it in the Passport. We're getting rid of the old L shaped desks we've had for aeons here at the Shoggoth Pit, and I bought my old one. Should make a decent desk for home.

Work is slow today, one coworker is out, the boss and the minion were both late. Had me wondering if I missed something saying 'Work from home today'. Nope, no such luck. Not much going on, minion is slowly getting the hang of tickets. Trying to be patient, and not just show him what to do. I've never been a good teacher, but I'm trying. :)

Had a good night last night, WoW, ferret time, then to bed mostly early. Slept alright. Glad it's almost the weekend. Hope everyone has a great day.

Weasel Grease [13 Nov 2008|06:27pm]
[ mood | amused ]

Arwen's been acting a little off, and his symptoms sound like he's developing another hairball. So, to nip this in the bud I went to get ferret laxative, aka weasel grease. So I'll be giving him the grease for a while, see if it helps. And so Nyx and Whiskey don't have to suffer though a major hairball like Arwen, they are getting a smaller dose of the grease. Nyx and Arwen think it tastes fine, Whiskey didn't want to have anything to do with it. But after scruffing him and plopping some in his mouth, he seemed to actually like it a bit. So, I can hope he'll be a little more open minded in his food tastes. We can hope. I have some ideas for feezle Cthulhumas gifts from things I found at the petstore. I love my feezlebutts, and I know most of you seem to like my ferret stories, so I'll keep babbling :)
