One Last Surgery
Happy 18th Birthday, Ruby! - (related link) . Today Ruby is 18, while Python is already 21 and Perl 24.
A very belated good morning! I dropped the girls off at their schools and listened to TNT #185 on the way. As soon as I got in, I got sucked up in debug. I think the whole day will be like this...
Panicked for a few minutes as LastPass.com went offline for a spell. I know there are security risks of keeping your passwords on an encrypted USB thumb drive vs. keeping them encrypted “in the cloud” and that moment when I couldn't get to my password archive made me re-think those tradeoffs.
Still amazed that Randall Schwartz of Perl fame is now homeless due to the housing bubble. (related link)
Perusing the new MacBook specs. Likin' the Intel quad core i7 & AMD graphics options. I'm “meh” on Thunderbolt and Facetime HD.
We finally have a surgery date scheduled in March for the removal of Michelle's chemo port.
Left work early so that I could take a 4pm and 6pm conference call with San Diego from home. I didn't want to be leaving Boxborough at 7 o'clock. Looks like tomorrow's snowy/mix weather is going to turn it into a work-from-home day.
Got the boys tucked in bed with their prayers. All five children are in anticipation of a snow day tomorrow. In about nine hours we'll know for sure. Meanwhile to paraphrase those poet laureates, Devo, "Lord, I am so tired. How long can this go on?" Good night all!
