  • @peeppeep I’m here, I’m here. I’m sorry. :( Problems at work this morn and catching up. Love ya, honey! :))) #
  • @WyldGade @pegva I’m here, I’m here. :) #
  • Oh and GM everyone. :) Thx for asking about me. :))) #
  • @tvhoppin GM. Thx! She’s a Bouvier (des Flanders). Her site’s at http://is.gd/11ji #
  • @breakall GM. Sounds like that could be quite a cool hack. :) #
  • @Osolage GM. Depends on what you want to use wake-on-lan for. Excellent for LOM, of course. #
  • @WyldGade Work and other things, yes. :::sighs::: #
  • @peeppeep Thx, baby. :))) That, and you, mean the world to me, you know. #
  • @WyldGade Thx, Sarah. I greatly appreciate it. :) They will. I’ll make sure of it, damnit. :D #
  • @pegva Oh, I’m sure you couldn’t if I didn’t turn up! LMFAOOO! :) #
  • @Osolage “lights-out management.” Very useful for running mid-night updates, i.e. firing up, updating, shutting down. #
  • @jmlumpkin @pegva Yep, @peeppeep is definitely one prolific writer. :) #
  • @Osolage I would suggest a wake-on card for a workstation that you could tunnel into then manage your servers from there, FWIW. :) #
  • @Osolage Nah, one in the same. #
  • Just walked by a student who’s wearing a gown that looks like a plastic bag so I told her “nice bag.” She said “thanks, I needed that.” :D #
  • @insanity_rocks @Daecabhir @kazama @VividMuse @oddlystrange @DougMeacham @RVAfashionista @jmlumpkin @duriechee @breakall GM all. :) #
  • @nantekoto Mac OS X and Win2k3 here. If you’re into open source and have a Linux box, check out Nagios. Good resource: http://is.gd/11mL #
  • Awesome. Our VMWare consultant just showed up. May be laying low for the rest of the morning. Exciting project about to start! #
  • Oh, BTW, y’all should check out @peepeep’s updated profile. ;) :)))) :::gushing here::: #
  • (sorry, @peeppeep; couldn’t help myself!) :))) #
  • @keitha Are you Brightkiting today? #
  • @TrevorDickerson GM! Sounds like an uneventful trip (that’s a good thing). Hope you didn’t think too hard (catching up on last night.) #
  • Stepmom just emailed me to let me know @HussiTheDog’s mom released her “2008 line of pups” last night. :) Will post pics laterz. #
  • @breakall Actually, I would have prefered to “stumble” along but I don’t write the checks. ;) #
  • @keitha Sure you set BK up to point to your Twitter name? Should be working as @TrevorDickerson has been successful. #
  • @keitha Nope, that should do it. FWIW, I’ve been having issues w/ BK not recording my SMS messages. #
  • Uh oh. Think I’m getting one of my painless migraines. Screens/monitors are looking fuzzy to me. :P #
  • When someone makes a statement to me and I answer “okay,” why do they then say “I asked you a question.” Huh? :P #
  • :::smacking head and grinning at @WyldGade::: Of course! I’m supposed to be a mind reader! :)) #
  • ::::hanging head in shame::: POS SMS. :P LOL! :D #
  • @peeppeep http://twitpic.com/53uz - Niiice. Welcome back, FOTD. We missed you! :) #

  • @coreyopenmls Went with this: http://is.gd/11rd Ordered from our primary vendor, GovConnection: http://is.gd/11rg #
  • @radiotowers FWIW, I can relate. When I was in the Navy, we couldn’t get anything accomplished. :( Fortunately, I don’t handle the $$. #
  • @radiotowers I just do the purchasing and implementing. :)) #
  • @radiotowers Oh, wow!!! And they’re paying him all this time??? Ouch to you too, @beatnikgal. :( #
  • @jmlumpkin That’s why I stream audio over the T1 and everything else over the biz class cable modem. Shhhh. ;) :D #
  • @jmlumpkin If I remember correctly, y’all are probably overdriving that T1 w/ the number of employees there. 900 peeps here on both. #
  • @ricewenchie Niiice! @peeppeep comes up w/ a “few” good ones. ;) :D #
  • @jmlumpkin That’s it??? For some reason, thought you had more. What are they sending across it?! Wow. :P #
  • NO WAY!!! @crocs is following me! I LUVS YOURZ SHOES, CROCS PEEPZ! :))))) #
  • @jmlumpkin Wonder how far you are from the serving CO. Saturation at your firewall maybe? #
  • @radiotowers Wow, that sucks, dude. :( Do what you gotta do, of course. Yeah, funding’s kind of a necessity. :) #
  • @peeppeep More than not, honey. ;) #

  • VMWare install is going very well. Also think I’m going to set up one of the old XServes as a target drive for the new one. #
  • @peeppeep Awesome, honey! :)) If the weather holds, maybe we can stroll the river or something. :) #
  • So, Dad just called me. @HussiTheDog’s mom had six pups, all males. Three fawns (like Hussi) and three brindles. :)) Pics forthcoming. #
  • @Vair Trust me, you’re not missing much. :P :) #
  • @choochus Slurpee, yes. Nectar of the gods. :))) #
  • @acmorton Absolutely. More “code-y” than WYSIWYG but it works well for the “price” albeit free. #
  • Watching: YouTube - Cialis Commercial - this is the FUNNIEST thing I’ve seen today! I’m dyin’ here! http://tinyurl.com/533b5l #

  • @tweetdeck Whew, cool. Thx much. :) #
  • @WyldGade Thx much. I appreciate it. :) We’ll see for sure. #

Hung Out to Dry? Not.

A lot happened yesterday. And, as usual, much of it was related to finances, or lack thereof.

#1. I have a van. I’ve talked about it before. I haven’t driven it in a month. I have no reason to. It’s a really nice van. Been to Florida a couple of times and did a great job hauling five kids and two adults around. It now sits in the parking lot in front of the new apartment I moved into. My Forester sits two spaces down from it. And I’m paying two car payments because “someone” reneged on taking the van. That being said, I like the Forester; I hate the van. However, I intend on doing something about that. Don’t worry; nothing “illegal” so to speak.

#2. I hate taxes, however, I recognize the need for them. I made the mistake of letting “someone” previously handle the finances. That “someone” knew about the multiple jobs and projects I was working on. After all, I had to pay ALL of the child support somehow, even when “someone” wasn’t working. Because some of the side jobs were contract-based, we had to handle our own taxes. I discovered that this wasn’t happening. No monies were being set aside to offset the taxes. That left ME with a pretty sizable bill with Uncle Sam. Okay, fine. I’ll pay it because I have to. However, yesterday, the state mailed me a letter saying I owe them too. Wonderful. Yippee. Needless to say, yesterday wasn’t a good day.

All this being said, I know what I need to do. Call the van’s loan company and send letters to the Fed and State and plead for payment plans. All the while paying the child support and other bills and hoping I have enough money left over to buy myself some crackers at The Dollar Store, which I did the other night. (Actually, they’re not half bad.)

This post may have a negative overtone. Yeah, I may be feeling a little negative, however, I’m also looking forward to getting all this straightened out so I can move on. My future’s actually very positive which I’ll post more about within the next day or two. I have many positive changes going on now, one particularly who’s making me smile more and more often. (She knows who she is.) That being said, it’s all good, even this stuff. :)

Y’all have a good one!

On a lighter note, I’ll leave you, dear reader, with this. I just can’t stop laughing! :))))
