Hmm. I have plans... and then I have things that Just Happen :-)
plans:
Get the Twiddler working under Linux.
-- The mouse driver works! Yaay!
-- and the generic X code works now...
[so, how *do* you drop DTR portably?]
Listen to more loud music. (and get some decent headphones :-)
Resurrect the Turing Alarm Clock project.
[I've been at work by 10:30am for over a week now... so
maybe it's just attitude :-)]
Do more biking, swimming, and fwisbee!
[Yeah, it would be Real Hard to do less. Humph.]
ThingsJustHappen:
spending the weekend in Way Far Northern Vermont...
[which was a *wonderful* getaway... didn't even have a phone!]
good seats at Phantom...
[what an excellent show. what an *amazing* production budget!]
work:
New phone numbers: 629-3000, 629-3013...
Thursday. Never could get the hang of... well, here's the list:
Leased line and real internet connection getting installed.
[well, the line is in, but the connection isn't up yet...]
Engineering manager coming in to town to interview people.
[Postponed another week, for lots of reasons... including:]
30% chance I'm leaving for Switzerland that afternoon.
[now 100%. Tickets in hand....]
Wheee...
And last night, my hp100 broke. (I may have stepped on it...) The
display is toast, though I could still download things from it. So
it'll take a week to repair (and I'll be gone, which is when I most
needed it :-{) But HP comes through with express service -- I'll
have a loaner unit in the morning, just in time....
Now I just have to remember to bring chocolate back this time. (In the
mean time, however, look for Lindt "Chocolate Truffle" -- it's made by
Spr\"ungli, but you can actually get it in the US! MMMmmmmm...)
