Almost Vacation time ...

Vacation time is fast approaching. I'm looking forward to having some time off again. I leave for San Diego on July 1.

In other news my computers graphics card broke a few days ago. I am using my backup card. This has inspired me to build a new computer. I looked at reviews and have decided on what I'm going to buy so I can build it myself.

I listened to the new Offspring album, there are several good songs on it.

Changes at work ...

Well, yesterday my boss announced she is leaving to take a position somewhere else. Her last day was to be on the 30th. Then for some reason she ended up leaving today instead. I got along with her well which was nice. I will look forward to now being able to learn from others, and to the possibilities this may provide for me to grow.

Starting tomorrow I am going to take over as the interim IT manager. I hope I can do well in this roll. I plan on working hard and applying for the permanent position as it is posted. I love the work I do, and enjoy the people I get to work with, and I Love where I live.

Heres to the future ...

A June Post

So I feel like I should post something, but I have nothing in mind to post. Nothing new or exciting is going on at work. The cubs still keep on winning. There is nothing happening in my personal life either. It is really pretty boring.

I did order a new Center Channel speaker for my surround sound. It should be better than my current cheap one, but I don't know if I'll notice a difference.

I made a doctor's appointment for later this month to see if I can get a cortisone shot in my knee so I can move around a bit more while I am in San Diego, Arizona, and Chicago.

Ordering Pizza from the command line

Command Line Web (Goosh)

I have a new home page now. www.goosh.org it is a command line shell for google. The commands are easy to pick up, and I think it is fun to use, although I am a computer nerd who runs linux.

One thing I would like to see added is a math module for simple math and conversions, like converting pounds to ounces, etc. The regular google does a good job at that.

Weezer (Red)

I got the new weezer Album today. I always like it when something arrives in the mail early. the album is officially out tomorrow. Included with my order from interpunk.com is a free 7" vinyl with 2 songs on it - "Pork and Beans" and "Are friends Electric". I'll give it a spin after I go through the CD a few times...
