Mike’s World

Week has still been a bit tough, but next week will be the real trial. I have been focusing on work, so that has helped.

Last week and this week I have been in Foster City CA helping again with out Digital division. This week I am making more progress on backups. I still need to get NDMP sold, but will tackle that one next week. The last trouble spot is the netapp backups. I have been integrating a DL4200 VTL in to their environment, and it has been interesting.

Yesterday my friend Lisa sent me a text to checkup on me. That made me quite happy that they are still thinking of me. It sucks that I have not been able to see them.

Ok, that is enough random thoughts for one day.

Well, my week long vacation is coming to an end soon. In four short days, I am flying back out to California for 2 weeks. I am looking forward to the work, but I am going to miss home. I am flying my cousin out over the weekend, and I am glad she decided to come out, it will be a blast playing tourist for 2 days.

Yesterday was a nice day. I got my backyard leaves taken care of, but I hope that I get another run at it before it snows. I still need to do a final mowing of the back yard. Yesterday evening my father came over to avoid all of the Halloween kids. It was nice having him over, we ended up watching a crappy remake of the shining.

Today I did the annual car detailing taken care of, and that was my main off-work accomplishment. This afternoon I went to meet up with what I think is a new friend I first met on Saturday. Me and her seem to have quite a bit in common, so I am looking forward to getting to know her better. It was amazing how much in common we have, everything from geek things, to movies and tv shows, to life experiences (or in some cases lack of experiences) to god knows what. What a day.
