Couch delivered. Delivery guys hate me so much because it was difficult getting it into the apartment. Note to self, to get it out, walk it out horizontally with the back facing down, cushion side toward the kitchen, past the first counter top. Between the counter tops, stand it up on it end on a […]

I gave up on black and ordered a light brown couch today. My buyer took possession of the futon today as well, so the livingroom is feeling empty. The light switch in my bathroom was arching and trying to burn down my apartment, so I went to Home Depot. I bought my 54 cent switch […]

I am all about supporting the economy lately. I’ve been looking for a new couch lately to replace my futon. I went to Star Furniture this weekend and spent over an hour sitting and laying on things. I found a Flexsteel couch I really liked, but found out tonight it would be a 120 day […]

Oh my god, this has gotten so hairy, unpredictable and complicated that it’s actually easier to write an expect script to log into a massive amount of firewalls to gather interface data.

Cisco, your SNMP implementation on PIX and ASA annoy me. On every version from 6.x to 8.x, once you nameif an interface it removes any trace of what the physical interface is from IF-MIB. There’s no way to relate logical to physical, to know that ‘outside’ is ‘Ethernet0/0’. This is annoying because the datacenter sees […]

I spent nearly three hours this week looking at packet dumps and coming up with a TCP-level explaination for a customer’s problem, only to have it shattered by bouncing it off a coworker. grr. Tickets from AUS to AMS in mid-March are $371. That’s nearly what I just paid to fly to Boston!

Wow, what I said goes double for long disclaimers that are translated into two different languages on every email!

Dear business world, Please stop with the legal and confidentiality disclaimers on emails that stretch out 10+ lines. Same goes for top-posting on a thread of five e-mails in one. You’re annoying me to no end, especially when your added contribution is only one line.

I suppose I should call this the unfinished blog entry since it’s been sitting in my editor for nearly exactly a week now. I have acquired every episode of House and have successfully watched each episode. I’ve been watching it as it was on the telly every now and then, but now I’m complete. Season […]

I am officially alergic to cedar pollen. It’s everywhere. Constant sneezing, runny nose, very itchy eyes. I started taking Zyrtec which helped some, then changed to Claritin-D. I bought a HEPA filter the other night and have been running it full blast in the bedroom. Still having problems with sleeping, hopefully I’m wore out enough […]
