It’s been several days since I posted this-I’m doing it at work so my time is a bit constrained…
As usual the weekend flew by-Friday I took the kids to school, Erika’s parents were here-their apt. was tented. Went to Tai Chi on Sat, took the kids to the Discovery Science Center & the mall. Matt got sick Sat. night, so I took him to the Dr’s while Erika went to church. We went to the local park in the afternoon-I tried to fly my Rev, but the wind was shifty. We went swimming last night while Erika went to a church meeting. Matt has diarrhea, and won’t take medicine of any stripe except suppository. Erika hates that…
I had a performance review today, and it was OK-I get another $1,000 a year-woo-hoo! I definitely got left out to dry-but Space Manager might get me back. I installed Oracle, DB/2, SQL Server, Sybase and mySQL on one of my servers this week-loads of fun-I still think mySQL is the way to go-the open source stuff works just as well as the commercial stuff, and it’s free! Anyways, I have to improve my code quality and do a UI “audit”, as well as the usual talk less, listen more and say I don’t know.
Erika lost 2 mentors last week. They had a bit of a email spat over an innocuous joke, and they’re willing to lose the relationship because of it. The priestess who married us also died last week, so Erika is feeling a bit lost right now.
What else-the occupation is going badly-no surprise there, we’re looking at houses again, the boys love swimming, and I have to go pee! Again, woo-hoo. I have some ideas that are bubbling around, and I need to update my essays, the diet and the rest-maybe I should stretch them into book length. I also need to start the music thing-I have ideas and feelings that need to be expressed, but no time for either writing or music. I wish I had a pile of cash like one of the execs here and take off on a sabbatical. Maybe I’ll win the lottery, too.
