Short Updates

Posted by Scott at 10:18 PM

Good morning! Going to be working from home today (after I drop the girls off). I have to be here when they come to replace the water damaged back doors of the garage. 6:16am

Nerd humor alert. "I wonder if Skynet is an emacs session that got sentient." (related link) and "CPAN is the language. Perl is just a syntax." (related link) 6:17am

Reading my non-gmail email. What!? You say the mighty gmail is down? I think that was in the Book of Revelations, wasn't it? 6:22am

Dropped Claire & her friends off. Helped Michelle get the rest loaded into the car. After she drops Abby & the twins off at school, she & Timothy head to the Y so she can teach a HiLo class. I'm working from home and expecting the contractor soon. 8:36am

The contractor has fixed one door and is starting on the other. Meanwhile I'm stumbling through VisualStudio, which is not natural to this Emacs/GCC/Command line guy. 1:15pm

How nice that IT forces my work-from-home laptop to start its weekly virus scan Friday at noon. It's like they WANT me to go out for lunch, because the laptop is all but unusable until it finishes. 2:16pm

Went over the house with the gutter guy. He's writing up a quote now. With as many issues as we have with water, I'm amazed at some of the houses that have no gutters at all. 3:24pm

Heading with the family out to the talent show at our middle school. Hope the boys behave... 6:13pm

Back from the show. The boys got a little impatient near the end but I can't blame 'em. 8:55pm
