  * up 7:30ish; W=199.2; drugs, nose, teeth; dishes, coffee, laundry
  : problems with dual-booting, probably because I edited the wrong fstab at
    one point.  :(  At least it works.  
  = living room TV: 2.2W idle, 37W running.  Not so bad, actually.  I'm saving
    a lot more by turning the desktop computer off when it's not being used.
  * 9:30 get Colleen up
  * 10:30 Wendy at the bank.  ReFi ball rolling; will save about $1000/month
    (not to mention another $1K or so on credit-card interest)  Now we just
    have to cut our expenses down to what we can pay off.
  x send postage-paid envelope to wrong address -> last pkg retrieved.  YAY!

  * Walk -- a little past Campbell Park on Los Gatos Creek.  Saw Kevin
  * Big!Lots haul: 3 FS floor lamps, 1 FS desk lamp, 1 torchiere, 3 USB cables
  * need a couple of short USB AB cables for nova
  * backup drive back up on nova via USB.

    (from several places on my flist)
  * dinner:  wings, ribs, cauliflower -- yum!
  * YD bought World of Warcrack.  Oh, well.
  : Dorsai's disk not working in USB box.  Must be the box; it boots.
    (Then sits there waiting for the ethernet card it doesn't have anymore.)
    Networking seems to be completely broken on Dorsai; cable problem?

Yesterday was a pretty good day. I got in a walk, and made a successful expedition to Big!Lots for full-spectrum floor lamps (plus bonus desk lamp and torchiere). We had three extra people for dinner; I made chicken wings, ribs, and cauliflower. Yum! I got the backup drive moved over to an external box on the fileserver, just in time for this morning's backup.

Some great news from a friend.

The fact that there are still some lingering bugs and corner cases left over from last weekend's server swap is not terribly surprising; I'm not going to let it worry me.

Some good links. Watch out for book bears!

I always get warm fuzzy feelings when I'm linked to. And Konrath should get a lot more attention; he points out a lot of the holes in the traditional publishing systems.
