Cold…and Cold…


I’m running short tonight on ideas for a post, so this will actually be pretty short tonight.

It’s been a really cold day today. My magic thermometer says the high only reached about 27, and the low was 8. This is April, after all. They always say never to make life-altering decisions in April. I guess I can believe that. Last week — nearly 80, this week, not above freezing.

I had a fairly productive day at work, although (as usual) not necessarily in the ways I’d hoped. I got to do something today that I’d not done before (at least not with Windows XP) — take control of a client’s computer to do some fixing. It worked out pretty slick, and I might keep that in mind for future use.

I left work just a little early today (around 4:45), seeing as how I’ll be there late tomorrow night. Rather than come home and head right back in to town for church (which is what I did tonight), I’m going to just stick around. Late. I’m looking forward and not looking forward to it. I don’t intend to turn the phone [ringer] on tomorrow, claiming it as a holiday, so I’ll be able to get a bunch of things done uninterrupted (Good), but I’ll be there until just after 7PM (Bad). But, if all goes well, I’ll not have to rush to do anything on Tuesday morning when I return to work for real, after taking Monday off.

I’m looking forward to the first of May, when we shift mostly to support calls (rather than deadlines) and then to future work. That will be good — I like working on things that I’ve not had the time to work on (due to deadlines). It’s just the next three weeks or so that will be less fun.

Anyway, that’s about all from here; really nothing new or fancy going on. I’m working on my weekend list of to-do items; we’ll see what actually gets done. But more about that as we get closer to the time. Until then…

See, I told you this would be good an uninspired!
