New apartment
Posted in Uncategorized on Jul 9th, 2008
Hoooray I signed up for a new apartment today. Right across 360 from work, about a half mile commute. My move-in date will be the week after Burning Man, so it’ll be interesting.

The weekend before last, I was enjoying swimming in the pool for stupidly too long. I burned myself pretty bad on my face and chest; I hadn’t been burned this bad in like 15 years. Normally I always wear Bullfrog when I’m out for a long time, but for whatever reason this time I didn’t. […]

I hate in-line KVM appliances

So the server I ordered long ago for tifa has two hard drives. It wasn’t until later I remembered this and realized it was not setup in a RAID. I finally got around to ordering a KVM-over-IP device from The Planet so I could work in single user mode to move filesystems around to an […]

Ah, summertime in Texas. I am thoroughly sunburned from being in the pool yesterday and a 24-mile ride today. The compressor in my apartment AC died last night, so today was an exercise in staying comfortable. Apparently if you close the blinds and turn on all the fans, it’s fairly tolerable. Who knew? While googling […]
Denver roadtrip
Posted in Uncategorized on May 27th, 2008
In a fit of three-day planned spontaneousness, I drove to Denver this weekend. I left work at 7 PM on Friday and hit the road. The V1 managed to save me three times on 183 before I even got to 183. It was well after dark by the time I passed through Sweetwater and I […]
Armadillo Hill Country Classic 2008

Still alive. Saturday I rode the AHCC. I wanted to do the full 107 mile route, but after 30-40 miles it was pretty apparent I wouldn’t last that long. I made it to the ‘Dillo Door cutoff in with thirty minutes to spare so I had made good time by then. I headed down the […]
