The last week has been kinda hectic, but in a good way. The job is going great. My days are flying by. I'm not looking at my watch every five minutes only to see that two minutes have gone by. (Intentional play on words...)
Sorry to everyone I normally see in person. Things are finally settled down at the new apartment enough that I can arrange my office so contact to the outside world has been slim to none via phone, and virtually non-existant online. Kirk, I know you called and I'll be getting back to you soon. Smilemore, I owe you a movie with Totem sometime. Acw, I owe you a firefly night. And lisalou, I owe you a dinner once you recover from your wisdom teeth surgery.
But all things considerred, Totem and I are doing better than we have for any other move we've been through. We're actually calling the new place "home" which is a welcome change. :)
In the Linux world, the tweaks to the laptop are coming along smoothly. I've got wireless installed and since I have access to an insecure network from my house, I should be able to test it. ;) From what I can tell, there really isn't any good support for WEP yet, outside of writing the drivers yourself...
On the network side, I got my 1000ft spool of cat 5 dropped off a day or two ago. Totem's office is now networked with my office on the third floor. Once I get the cable drops put in, my Linux box will be up an running like it used to. It really only serves as a firewall and file server so it's not doing much right now. ;) The advantage of broadband though (outside of the speed) is I'll be able to let the box "do its own thing" during the day. Once I get my other computer back from Jay, I'll be starting over. Well, since I'm either going to use Debian or Gentoo, I haven't decided yet, I need a broadband connection for the box to sit on. In come advantage of cable internet...
OH! Totem and I did our pre-cana today. Not much to say on that cause I don't even wanna touch the religious stuff (way too sensitive of a subject) outside of that the big day is getting closer and closer. Thats not a problem, either, so don't get me wrong. It's just coming faster and faster... ;)
