Guess what?
After 2 months of waiting, WE CANT GET FUCKING DSL! Appearantly or lines are fiber, and DSL cannot run over fiber. So now, it looks like we’re gonna hafta dish out the cash for a T1. There are many benefits to the T1, aside from the price. A) no Verizon. B) T1’z are mission critical, so the SLA’s are much better. C) did I mention no telco?
GRRRRRRR!!!!
Well,.. I’m back at work today. I now need a vacation from my vacation, since I got no rest the entire time. Luckily I only have today and tomorrow, then the four day weekend. Too bad I’m on call all week though. So far everything is great at the house, still have a few things that need to get done, but we are mostly unpacked, and I got a lot of the projects I wanted to get done, done. Now, I’m just waitin for my DSL to get setup, so I can move the servers home.
Happy birfday mooose!
Okay, so I know I haven’t written anything in a while, I’ve been busy. My vacation officially started today YAY! Yesterday we had our final walk-thru in the house. Surprisingly, there were only a few minor things that needed done. Like touch up some paint here or there. If my damn mortgage processor actually gets off her ass and gets things done today, we should be all set for closing on Wednesday. It will be a busy vacation for me, I am going to get boxes today. We haven’t started packing at all. Steph has done a little organizing, but no real packing. The movers are scheduled to be here Friday morning sometime between 8 & 10. Before then, I need to move my fish which I am not looking forward to. Not only will the fish be incredibly stressed from being bagged for at least an hour, but it is going to be hard to salvage much water. 55 Gallons is a lot of water! I’ll be lucky if I can save more than a few gallons. Which means I will hafta add at least 10 gallons of water to the tank as right away, and fish really don’t like that. Well, gotta get this day started.
Well,.. I just found out that we are being pushed to open several new data centers around the world. I will possibly have to go to each or any of these to setup the noc infrastructure. JOY
*pssssst*
Happy Birthday Persis!
IT”S FRIDAY!!!
Well it is finally here. Long week, though overall time is really flying. I can’t believe that it was only 5 months ago that we had started looking at houses, and now we’re just a few weeks away from moving into ours. Tonight we are having our halloween party, it should be a lot of fun. I wish my friends from around the country could be here. We miss you guys! Now I must act like I work.
Believe it or not, I actually don’t have anything to rant about today. Need to find out a real date for when we close on the house. I already setup the phone, and electricity, still gotta do gas. Based on my cross streets, covad says I “should” be able to get dsl there. Ima fill out the pre-qual forms today. Once I get a reasl date, I can actually arrange for the movers and kick my butt into gear and start packing and shit.
It was another one of those mornings today. Alarm goez off,.. I roll over. Itz cold, I’m exhausted. I lay there for a good 30 minutez contemplating calling work and working from home today. But I didn’t, I drove in, picked up my coffee and a stale onion bagel from dunkin donutz.
