d000gie!!

I got a puppy last night! Steph posted a couple picz hereWe have been looking at dog adoption pages lately, and saw that HART was doing an adoption at one of the local pet stores. So we went to look. As we were walking up I saw china through the window. We had seen pics of her online (she is one of 5 siblings), and I instantly fell in love with her. She is half chow, half german shepard. Her mom was pure chow, her dad pure shepard. Not only does it make for a beautiful dog, but the shepard should help tame the chow attitude a bit. So far she has been great. We had a good nights rest, I woke up at 7 to her, I heard her making a little noise waking up. We went outside, and she took care of business. I was getting into the shower, and she decided that she needed a shower too, and ran in! I figured what the hell, now is as good a time as any to bathe her. It must be the shepard in her, cuz from what I have read, chow’s dont like baths much. We took a trip out to petsmart with her, to pick up some more stuff, and let her mingle with some other dogs. They were having an adoption there today, so ther was at least 30 dogz roaming around. She seems to have no problems interacting with other dogz, and children as well. Right now she’s curled up on the floor asleep, with her lil green monkey I got her.

Go look bitchez!

Okay, I know I am a slack ass, and havent written an entry in a long time. This is important though. Everyone go read this now!

Now, about me…
I have been busy as all hell lately. I am very happy that the holidays are over, since they take up way too much time and money. We are still waiting for the T1, I am waiting on a status update as we speak. We have been doing tonz of stuff on the servers in the downtime. Steph has been doing a major overhaul of all of the galleries again. I have been working on some scripts and other behind the scenes stuffz. Aside from that it’s been all about home depot. I am there at least once a week! I have done all kindsa stuff to the house, and I’m lovin it.

Happy Holidayz!

Well,.. the weekend is just about here. I made it to work in record time this morning thanks to all the turds that didn’t go to work today. The drive home will be pure suck though. Hope everyone has a great holiday!

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.

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
