Oh yeah, it's gonna be awesome. And no, there's no motorcycle content inside.



  1. Leave work.
  2. Go to the grocery store and pick up a couple of things. Maybe get a venti coffee with two shots of espresso, as well.
  3. Go home, cook something worth eating (probably spaghetti with meatballs and roasted garlic, leftover from earlier this week).
  4. Eat whatever it is I cook.
  5. Maybe take a half hour nap.
  6. Walk back to the office.
  7. Pack up two external FireWire hard drives.
  8. Call a cab, wait for it.
  9. Go to the colocation cage in Cary.
  10. Unpack the hard drives, clone two drive images, and stand around in the freezing cage waiting for them to finish.
  11. Pack up the laptop again, get my ID back from the colo folk.
  12. Either call another cab, or walk the 9 miles home, depending on how much I feel like spending, how late it is, how cold it is, and how tired I'm feeling at that point.
  13. Arrive home, hook the laptop into the Command and Control Center.
  14. Start loading RSS feeds until I need toothpicks to keep my eyes open.
  15. Sleep, or die trying.

I'm one crazy motherfucker. Don't even try to stop me. I'll take you down with me. Hell, I had fucking popcorn for lunch. Believe me, you do not want to tangle with someone like me!

Tomorrow, on the other hand, will be the day for doing all the remote backup shit from one host to it's replacement, and for possibly watching the ripped copy of "Garden State" I made for Netflix. You're welcome, Netflix.

Oh yeah, this is the good life, alright.

Oh, and hey, whaddya know? It's 4:06. Market closes slightly up, and I am a FREE MOTHERFUCKER (for a couple of hours, that is)!

HA CHIBA DA, people. HA CHIBA DA.

Sure, you've got the facts on your side -- but that's just your opinion.

You can build the most elegant fountain in the world, but eventually a winged rat will be using it as a drinking bowl.

I used to think she was smart. Now I'm not sure why I believed that.

People make mistakes by MohammedNiyalSayeed (4.00 / 1) #10 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 09:58:25 AM EST

Her mistake is babbling about stuff above and beyond singing neu-Country songs.

Weekend plans by georgeha (4.00 / 1) #4 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 08:27:32 AM EST
Tonight, maybe get some sort of dinner and a movie. put kids to bed and luxuriate in only 2 adults being in the house.

Tomorrow, get haircut, workout at Y, take eight year old to see $product.

Maybe rack off Maerzenbock.

Sunday, alone time with Mrs. Ha during the afternoon.

Oh yeah, I'm sort of on call too, so any of that can be interrupted at any time.




Alone time by MohammedNiyalSayeed (4.00 / 1) #9 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 09:57:05 AM EST

I'll have plenty of that this weekend. Where, by "this weekend", I mean the rest of my life. Totally overrated, unless you get to spend alone time with someone else, at which point, is it really alone time anymore?

Don't be glum, chum by georgeha (4.00 / 2) #14 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 12:04:38 PM EST
Why, if you chase after chicks in their 30's+, you can experience what geek-chasing girls experience, the odds are good...

Or find a place that allow puppies. Or motorcycles.

Nah, not for me by MohammedNiyalSayeed (4.00 / 1) #15 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 12:13:18 PM EST

"There's nothing more foolish than a man chasing his own hat."

Besides, it'd just get in the way of my monastic ambitions. That puppy idea has some serious merit, though. I can have dogs here, I just need to be able to let go of the notion that I can leave the house for the occasional weekend out of town, or get a shoulder-mounted variety of puppinator, such that I can cart him or her with me everywhere I go.

More along the lines of something like by MohammedNiyalSayeed (2.00 / 0) #17 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 01:39:35 PM EST

this or this. I think I'd worry about the little furry bastard falling out too much if they were behind me, plus, in front, you can get extra dog smooches with relative ease.

"Chum"? by ti dave (4.00 / 1) #20 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 09:37:53 PM EST
OK. You can be Joe and I'll be Frank. Maybe we can get DU or Stacky to play Chet.

You're lucky by ENOENT (4.00 / 1) #6 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 08:34:45 AM EST
We're not allowed to do cloning, or any other kind of reproductive experimentation, anywhere onsite.

Life is just one damned thing after another.
Love is just two damned things after each other.




You should switch to the financials field by MohammedNiyalSayeed (2.00 / 0) #8 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 09:55:57 AM EST

I do cloning all the time. All the time. It's not as exciting as I thought it would be, when I first learned about it. Mainly, it's a bunch of progress bar watching.

Go progress chrome, they paint the moon today.

Financial cloning? by ENOENT (4.00 / 1) #13 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 10:42:36 AM EST
That explains why one fat old white guy in a grey suit looks like another.

Hot, wet firewire action! by greyrat (4.00 / 1) #12 Fri Feb 18, 2005 at 10:26:04 AM EST
and presumably hot, definitely wet furry action!

HA CHIBA DAAA!!!

Me. I get to take care of step-kids this weekend, including getting college-boy onto out local home network (brrrrrrrr!)
