Well today my SuSe XServer died, so I decided to upgrade to SuSe 7.3. That all went well. I’m doing good now. It took me like 2 hours to go through all the packages though and get the ones that I wanted. Oh well, things are good.
Not much really happened today. I had an MIS test and that was good. I think I did well.
Ok well this update’s lame, but whatever. Laters.
Well 12 hours after I left this morning, I’m now back in my room, hmmm. Perhaps I should leave again.
I went to work today and Nazanin was insane, she really annoyed me. We were making this page from a conference which had just got over in DC, it was the Mission Critical Computing Conference. Well at this confrence there’s all these people from the different national labs that give presentations on the latest technology that they are working on. So this page that I was making, I was taking all the ppt presentaions and just creating links to them, and such. She kept insisting that I change these stupid little things. I was like, woman, make up your fucking mind about what you want me to do.
But one thing that was odd about this job today was that the conference was supposed to be held on Sept 25, but because of the whole Sept 11th thing, they canceled it. So yeah, I was going throught the presentations and there was this one where this guy had actually modeled what would happen if a Boeing 757 were to fly into the WTC. And also what would happen if a bomb went off at the Pentagon. It was scary, the entire presentation was what would happen if different incidents were to happen to government buildings all over the world. There was alot more to it, but I know that if the presentation itself got out, it would be considered a National Security Breach, so I don’t know how much I can say about it…..
Yeah, not much has really happened today. I haven’t got to talk to Adam yet either, it’s sad. I don’t know when I’ll get to talk to him today either, if ever. Cause he’s supposed to work tell 10, but he said that he might leave early and go to Java Joe’s. Whatever, hopefully I’ll get to talk to him some tomorrow at least. 🙁
I think I have a phobia, it’s stop-lightaphobia. Everytime I go through a stop light, or come up to one now, I think that it’s going to turn yellow and then red before I have a chance to stop and then I’m going to hit someone. It’s crazy and driving me insane. I think they need to add another color to the stop lights, like orange or something, yeah. It should go Green, Orange, Yellow, Red. Or maybe they should make a flashy one, like the “Don’t Walk” signs, it could be like Green, Flashing Green, Yellow and then Red. That would work. I think I’ll send that one into the people, who would that be? I mean who decides what colors stop lights should be?
Tonight was great. I got out of class at 2, and I came back to the dorm room. I did some random stuff and Sri randomly stopped in and talked, and then about 15 till 3, I was like, what to do now. I had nothing to do tonight, so I decided to go back to Ankeny and go to the GLRC, it was great times. Mandy and all were there as well, so it was good to see them again. It seems like I haven’t seen them in forever. Good times.
Dustin has like a bf type person now as well. I feel sorry for him (not Dustin, the bf type guy) he doesn’t know what he’s getting himself into. Crazyness.
I’m going to go write a script for my website now, so that it will automatically sync and upload for me. Hehe, laters all.
Well here it is, Sunday and I’m back at the dorms. This weekend was really really good. Friday night Adam and were supposed to hang out with Mary, but we couldn’t get ahold of her, so we went back to my house, it was like 7:30 or something and we ate Ramen noodles and I make Orange smoothiesque type things, and then we went hot tubbing, you can use your imagination for what went on the rest of the night.
Saturday was good as well, Adam got off at three, so after that we went and visited his Mom at work. It was raining all day Saturday and it was supposed to snow like a bitch, but that didn’t happen. After we visited Adam’s mom at work, I decided that I wanted to try and find a cheap old computer so that I can use it as a webserver. So we went on a qwest for that. Of course, we ended up at the mall. We left there about 6, and it was pouring down rain and I was like, I don’t want to be out in this. So we headed for the interstate and headed for Adam’s house. That was mucho grande bad. The semi’s and such were sliding all over the road, and the wind was strong, and we couldn’t see jack squat, so I got off at the MH exit and we took the back roads home from there, they were much better. Once we got back to Adam’s house, we hung out there for a while. We were supposed to go out with Julian, Mandy, Vero and gang, but with what we had been through earlier, I just really didn’t want to be out in that. I was sad though cause it would have been fun to go hang out with the group and all. They said that they might stop by, but they never did. That was sad. But none-the-less, Adam and I had a good time at his house, no one was home, so we just hung out and cuddled and such, it was nice.
While we were at the mall, Adam and I had a bit of a tiff, it wasn’t anything big and we’ve resolved it, but looking back on it it’s pretty funny cause we were in the Gap, I can just imagine what people must have been thinking, probably the same thing we werte thinking later when we saw a str8 couple arguing on the path, “Ohh, look the str8 couples arguing.” I just bet people were walking by us in the Gap and thinking “Ohhh, look at the gay couple arguing” It’s amusing now, but it wasn’t then.
Speaking of arguments, Adam had a dream last night about us arguing and me getting really mad at him, and pretty much ignoring him. If you want a better explination of the dream, go read it on his website. (http://oscareds.deep-ice.com) But what I want to say is that he called me this morning and we talked for like an hour or so on the phone. It was really odd, cause we never just talk on the phone, but it was still really nice to just talk to him about random things. Then tonight we talked about it more, and he said that the dream made him realize how I felt earlier this summer, and he said that he felt bad. I told him that everythings alright, because everything is alright, we are happy together, and our relationship just keeps growing.
Today’s been good as well, it’s entailed much randomness and driving and such. It was good, but nothing of really any importance, other then that’s already been mentioned. My keyboard appears to be collecting a layer of hair products from when I de-crunchify my hair at night and it’s starting to make it sticky. I shall go clean my keyboard now. I’m out.
Well not much has really happened here in the last couple days. I still don’t have a working website, I’m going to e-mail them again here today. I guess Adam and family are looking at a new house. That’s goood news, it’ll be really cool if Adam gets the room that he wants. And I’ll be jeleous as hell cause I wanted the same things and never got it, of course they wait until after I move out to finish the basement. Bastard parents. Oh well. It’ll be cool for him.
I’m also thinking about moving a few things, not me though, I was thinking about dumping the webservers that I have and hosting my own. Then I could host some other people as well. So that would be cool. I’m also thinking about moving over to Suse 7.3 Pro from Suse 7.3 Personal. Not much difference, but I’ve found that there’s some annoyances when compiling things. I’m also looking at moving over to Moveable Type, Julian introduced me to it, and I’ve been looking at it some. I haven’t really had time to play with it a great deal, but I did get it installed on my computer, and that was a project in itself. lol.
The problem though with my own webserver, would be where the hell to host it. I could host it in the dorms during the year, and then possibly at Krell during the summer, but then every May and August, I’d have that 3 day down time, which would be annoying. But that’s not that bad. I’d also have to find another system to host it on, cause I wouldn’t want to use my personal system, or my backup system. So yeah, I figure I might be able to talk my mom into letting me have Andy’s computer, since he never fucking uses it, but I doubt she’d let me do that. So if anyone out there has an old computer, with at least a 500 Mhz+ Processor and 15 Gig + HD and would be willing to sell it cheap, e-mail me. Eh.
It’s looking as thogh Adam and I won’t get all that much time together this weekend. He’s working Friday night, and 12-3 Saturday and then after work he’s going to his dad’s, then Sunday he works 12-6, so those are just odd hours and since he usually doesn’t get up tell late on Sat and Sunday, well that doesn’t leave all that much time. It’s sad really.
Ok, I must go and work with the evil M$ and encode some stuff. Laters
