Life: October 2006 Archives

Friday is here, Yippie! What a week! I am still recovering from yesterday's early morning start at work. Things went pretty well with the migration that I did. There a some more things to do on Monday as we try not to do anyhting that may break on Fridays. We really don't like working on the weekends.....

What a week this one has been. I have a pretty full day that included a nice 3 hour chat with Mr. Unpronouncable stationed in India, who happens to work for Microsoft.

I am due in the office tomorrow at 5:45 am. Could it be any earlier? The answer is yes and I have been.

Not a lot happening tonight, so far. I am working "oncall" which means carrying the "oncall" pager and returning any pages that come in and resovling any issues that arise during off hours. Not more than two minutes after I leave the office and speed away on the stella, the pager goes off in my pocket....

I normally don't like carying the pager so much , but the money is really nice, but also I am prettymuch confined to the homestead. What a better excuse than to do some more reading/learning on php.

The weather seems to want to stay cold and miserable. I am afraid that winter is here to stay.

I made it back to the doctor last week for my post butchery checkup. Evidently the butcher did a great job as my knee is better than ever. Now my other knee need some attention. Well I am not going to do anything about he right knee until I have too.

I have been busy lately learning a new programming language, PHP 5 after work. PHP is a server side scripting language that is used to produce dynamic web pages or web applications. THere is a lot to the language and PHP 5 is a fully blown oop release in the world of PHP.
