• Not feeling great today. I did get some unpacking done though and started two breads for baking tomorrow. #
• Time to hit the hay. Feeling a little better after some relaxing. Hopefully the headache is gone by morning… #
• Two batches of bread are kneaded and proofing. It's amazing what a 10 minute knead can do, both for bread and baker! #
• Ciabatta came out looking OK. Sourdough is doing it's final rise and I'm out the door for a few errands… then diiner! #
• I am horrible at shopping. I can't find anything…. Ever. I see no logic in these store layouts. I need store GPS. #
• The final loaf of the night should be done baking in a few minutes.. which is good because I can't keep my eyes open! #
• Not bad looking bread! http://yfrog.com/4ils7rj #
• Arg. I cannot get VMWare Server running on Fedora 12 for the life of me. I've done all the patches ect but when I reboot, it's dead again. #
• Time to head home. Bread is baked, but cookies await! #
• Cookies came out terrible. You wouldn't want them. They aren't perfectly cooked with tasty walnuts and chocolate chunks.. nope. Not here! #
• Time to pack up my cookies! No.. I mean.. uh.. throw them out. Yeah.. Time to throw them out. They're just awful.. you don't want any. #
• After perhaps a few late night cookies… yogurt for breakfast seemed to suit me well. I might just reach for an Apple as well… #
• Qemu seems to be doing an OK job handling VMs on Fedora 12. Well integrated. I'll do some informal speed tests but so far so good. #
• Back from Praise team rehearsal. Quite a night. Few people missing but we got a lot done. Sunday should be great! #
• I love recovering files for people from our backup server. It's very gratifying to actually be able to help someone. #
• My new scale came in! Horray! Batteries not included though… jerks. I'm having a cookie, That'll teach 'em… #
• I'm trying to force my work area into a much smaller office. It's not pleasant and I'm increasingly annoyed with my forthcoming arrangement. #
• After a quick dinner, I'm off to the church to help the choir a bit.. and then I think I have a meeting as well.. #
• Finally got my new server running just the way I'd like. With tomorrow night free, maybe I'll attempt to swap it out with the old one… #
• Finally getting my first sip of tea. Priceless. Nothing quite like a nice cup of green tea to help relax and focus the day ahead. #
• I've sent some tough Emails this morning.. I hope I don't regret them this afternoon! #
• Time to get out of the office. I need to grocery on the way home. Time to start thinking about the week's meals… #
• Alright. Groceries sorted and now I need to clean up the kitchen and make dinner. Thursday's have become fish-day it seems. #
• Things are looking up for my new office space. No word yet on 'Move Day' but the floor plan has improved.. and we even get windows! #
• Roasting some chickens tonight for dinner. The usual usual suspect will be over as well.. should be fun. I need a roasting pan though… #
• Lots to do today. The kitchen is a mess, but the roast chickens were great, and lots of leftovers! Now, time for the server work… #
• My server project for today actually went quite well. No issues as of yet. Storage is working and speed is much better. #
• Fired up the HP LaserJet 5 to print our some seed catalogs. I love old printers. Incredible piece of equipment.. and duplexer to boot! #
• I am forever melting things on my dish washer… I have again filled the house with the scent of melting plastic #
• Wow. It looks like I've landed a Mackie D8b console.. on Freecycle! These things used to sell for $10k! I'm pretty excited! #
• Waiting in Chester for the guy giving away the D8b #
• Well, that was a waste of time. Perhaps I'll meet up with the guy and get the board tomorrow… #
• Time for some dinner. Lots of leftover Chicken and all the sides. I've been waiting for this meal all day! #
