Slow weekend and week

This has been a slow time recently. I just don’t have much to do. During the entire weekend, I really didn’t do much. Friday I went to the Costume party done by Aggie Christian Grads. I had a good time. Got to meet some people there. I guess I will have to go to their bible studies now just so I can get to know them better. Saturday, I went to the Maroon and White game (baseball). It was interesting to see, and then went back to my office to do some research. Sunday, I can’t remember what I did. During this past week, I didn’t do anything out of the ordinary. Just a normal week.

Trudging through

I am slowly getting through classes. Actually class is not really an issue anymore. It has gotten rather easy lately. I did get to thinking that I need to update my degree plan at some point. I looked at what I have left for minimum requirements. I need only 20 more hours, of which only 2 needs to be class. Good grief, I am closer than I thought.

My advisor wants to meet three times a week now. Likely a good idea. I mean, I need one more class, and then research and write my dissertation, and I am out of here!!!! I should get cracking and get it through.

Yet another week

Well, I had the fun of teaching Chris how to do the live stream. I get the feeling that he may not be doing it very often. There is hope that I can pass it off to someone. We had a meeting of the internet/email team before breakaway itself. Basically, we discussed where breakaway is going in the future in respect to the internet. I also snapped some pictures while I was there. One was of Curtis trying to get the TV working:

As you can see, it is not working yet. He didn’t manage to fix it. It has a loose connection in there somewhere. Somebody is going to have to open it up with a soldering iron to actually fix the thing. I shot some random pictures, including this one:

Three people enjoying themselves. The girl in the center wanted to be a part of a picture, so I let her enjoy the time.

Stuck doing jobs

People keep giving me tasks to do. I really wish they would find someone to replace me quickly. Today I kept trudging along in the task of ordering an Xserve Raid for the server. Whenever we get the thing, we will have 3TB of storage space. What makes this a pain is the fact that it is over $5000, so it has to go out for bid. Yuck. Right now I have to wait on email replies before I can go much further.

Blast from the past

I had someone ask me a few days ago if I was responsible for the Kyocera Ring tone generator for the mac. I had to let him know that I was guilty as charged. Anyway, I have put up a website for the thing. Hopefully this means that people actually use it. I changed the license of the software so I am basically giving it away now without the restrictions of the GPL. We will see if anything comes of it.
