Well I attempted to do the firewall cutover last night. Now I am friggin tired. Got home at 12:30 and was in bed about 1:15 am. Then I was up at 7 am to get to work today.
But enough about work. Personal life. Hmm, my friend had a birthday on Saturday. I got him a cool shirt that reads, "Tortured Artist. Without angst there is no art."
Not much more excitement than that going on. I spent probably more than I should have on a couple of 550 dollar monitors. But they are really cool 20" widescreen LCDs. But I spend most of my life in front of my computer so that is where my money goes.
In fact since getting this job and making more money I find that my expenditures have gone towards things that will keep me occupied more and more in my own room. I got Season 1 - 4 of Stargate now. I picked up a couple of books and I got a new power supply in addition to the two monitors for my PC. The power supply was needed to fix the power issues my PC was having so that was a given. But I probably didn't need the monitors for another year or so before my current monitors would die on me.
My friend is opening a tattoo shop here in Eagle-Vail so that will be pretty cool. I am hoping once that opens that it will lure me out of the house more. The reason I don't visit him more often now is because his current tattoo shop is about an hour away. I am also hoping that I can find a new D&D group that is closer to me at that time to. I plan on hanging a sign at the shop asking for gamers.
I really need hobbies to get me out of the house to meet others. The problem is that you don't meet anyone snowboarding because that is really a solo sport. It is tough to talk to someone when you are launching yourself off an 8 foot cliff with the wind rushing past your ears.
I need to find hobbies that force me to interact with other people and to actually talk to them. Unfortunately I live in the Vail Valley. There is plenty to do in the outdoor activities but finding an indoor hobby that matches my interests is a bit harder.
