Another whew day...
Aug. 7th, 2007 07:25 pmI finally got to a place about 7 pm where I knew if I tried to do anything else I would Fuck It Up. So I quit. Tomorrow is another day and, hopefully, one at a faster speed. I did finally realize this afternoon that I was RAS in through the most crowded VPN tunnel they have. Doh. Switched to another one and things got instantly better.
For work, I deal with DSL speed that is impaired by the fact that I have to be tunneled into the corporate network. Most of the time, honestly, it's pretty invisible. When I have to upload giant stuff - which isn't that often - I feel the slowness but the rest of the time, it's fine. This little Clearwire experiment has made me very grateful. Oh and I got email from Clearwire today that my now 5 day old trouble ticket had been resolved. In fact, I got to emails about it. Both contained links that were not accessible (at least by me).
The Mariners are doing very nicely so far. Thank you, Baltimore. And... oddly... while it is not hot hot hot here, it is oddly humid. I'm thinking Baltimore is leaking through my TV.
I have a two hour conference call tomorrow morning. At least it's on a project that is interesting and with a client I really like, respect and admire. Some days - even the days when I would trade my first born for some breathing room, I love my job. I really do. I am so lucky.
