New Database Server )

Nippet )

Had a really busy day today so far. Been out consulting since like 9am. Worked at the barn, played with my horse a little bit. Got a few emails and things taken care of. Going to dinner tonight with my parents to celebrate my Dad's birthday, woohoo!

Do You Feel Alive...?

Just got a whole ton of new music. I've actually not listened to much of it yet, but the new Vanna album is quite amazing. It's definitely going to go on my iPod :) I've been working a lot on adding stuff into Delicious Library. I've completed movies, so I guess next I'll work on video games and TV shows. We're like 7 episodes away from having 4,000 TV episodes haha. We've also got like 950 movies which is nuts. I'm really hurting on space now haha. I can't wait to get a new server. I'll be able to offload like 100GB+ onto there.

Yesterday, I didn't really do much, actually, I did like nothing at all haha. Around 2 or so, I went to the barn and worked there. It's so nice seeing all the horses and everything. Was also really nice to see Rita and Bethany and her new horse Joy. She's a really good looking horse. After that, I stopped by the old apartment and we picked up the server rack and a few other items that had been left behind. Got back and put everything that would fit in the rack, in there. I'll have to take some photos, maybe this afternoon :) Or how about right now :)

So there you have it, a few photos. I am really hoping to get that new database server before the beginning of summer. We're really in need of a decent box for handling it all. Today...

Woke up around 9...definitely a bit later then I was hoping for, but it's okay. I think I finished a Dirty Jobs episode, got some breakfast. Then [info]emilie called and we chatted for a bit, figured out some plans for today. I think I'll head to the barn around 2pm or so, get my chores done, then we're going to meet up at the grocery store and pickup some stuff to make a nice meal at her place...I dunno what else we're going to do. I'll finally be able to see my kitty.

Hopefully the roads aren't too bad. I guess just take it nice and easy and it'll be fine. So now I'm going to read a bit of my Anime Insider mag and maybe watch a movie. Have a lovely day everyone! :)

It's Been Awhile...

Wow, I feel like I've not written in here in forever...

Last night I went to see Senses Fail w/ Dance Gavin Dance and Sky Eats Airplane and some other band...it was amazing. I've really got to buy another Canon point and shoot. My poor SD200 is pretty much useless...I might see if there's anything Clifford can do too it, maybe replace the flash or something.

Today I spent some time working on some site-wide CSS, although I didn't get much done. Tomorrow I am planning on getting the search box on the navigation strip working better. I think we might post some site contests for layouts (both of site and my journal) and give out free Paid Accounts to those that are worthy...I'll post more about that as we figure out some more details.

Damn, never finished this entry...oh well :P

Consulting & More...

Well today I had consulting. Previous to that, I did sleep in a little, I've got to stop doing that...it annoys me, mostly because I feel like I'm wasting a lot of time. [info]emilie made us some delicious pancakes for breakfast, she's still not 100% but she's getting there. It must really suck, but I'm proud she's doing well.

Consulting was relatively easy considering I've never pulled apart an iMac G4 before. The only thing that was a bit difficult was getting the thing to split in half. The heatsink was pretty well attached so it made it a bit difficult. I basically pried it from the metal piece it was attached too. Got the drive replaced and the thing back together within 30 minutes or so. I was pretty impressed with myself haha Unfortunately the software end of things didn't go well, I just blame it on Panther being old and all. I recommended that he just find a copy of OS X Tiger so I think that's what he'll do.

I worked with the horses this afternoon after doing stalls. The kittys are all growing up and now they're really starting to act like cats. I love it.

I attempted to play some COD4 this evening but it was being stupid so I didn't bother with it. I finished up issue 163 of Game Informer, had a nice review of Final Fantasy XII so I can't wait to play it. Also had a big thing on Dark Sector which I played a couple weekends ago at Keiths. Definitely a lot of fun.

Tomorrow, nothing is scheduled so I might play some Star Fox Adventures and will work the horses. I'll be going to see the new Indiana Jones with my Dad tomorrow. That should be fun.

Hope everyone had a nice day!

New Pictures

These were all taken with my Apple iPhone ([info]roark - definitely putting them into some photo editing software works wonders - I just used iPhoto and Pixelmator, muuuuch better!).

Horse Days...

First here's a few photos [info]emilie took this morning. Thought I would share them with you all! That's my little kitty!







So anyways, I had to pick up my parents at the airport yesterday, they were just getting back from a trip to Ireland, kind of sounds boring to me, but hey, they had fun. Maybe if they had some horsey activities over there, I could handle it, and I am sure they do, but I could probably do the same thing here, for a lot cheaper.

Today, not much going on, just finishing up some Mint installs. It's some really great web analytics software, check it out if you have your own website and stuff. Also working on a new social website for equestrians. It reminds me a lot of FaceBook, but obviously not a feature-filled, but I think people will enjoy it.

I actually chatted with Adelaide the other day, one of my ex-girlfriends who I've not spoken to in ages. She was a really great person, still is, we definitely had a lot of fun. Unfortunately she's way down in CT, but who knows, maybe we'll meet-up sometime.

It's miserable here, crappy and raining...but I think I will still go to the barn as I've not got a lot of other work to get done and I've got some really delicious (or so they say) horse treats to give out.

I am thinking about going back to school since I might have guaranteed admissions to the University of Vermont, but ONLY if I can get into the Equine Science program. I think it will definitely be a challenge but it would be a real lot of fun and stuff to learn all about it. We'll see, just waiting for an email back from my advisor.

Well, I'm off to get some other things, done. I've been messing around with Linux and I love it. I've been using it for servers for many years but now I've turned my main desktop into a Linux machine and I must say, it's awesome, although not as good as Mac OS X, but definitely much better then Windows! Have a lovely day everyone!

Code-athon

Well for the last 2 weeks I've been working my ass off validating almost 3,000 (2,996 or something to be exact...) products and other various (X)HTML pages. It's a goddamn god thing we got bonuses this month or I would have flipped out and killed someone. Fortunately all of the products are done and there's only a few static HTML pages left to do.

Besides that I've been playing a lot of Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare with my friends. Unfortunately one of my friends Xboxs got the red rings which I experienced myself just the month before, so needless to say he's offline for the time being.

I've also started playing skate which is a really great game. There are a few times when I'm really hurting for the controls of Tony Hawk though. The control scheme is entirely different then I am used to for skateboarding games so it does take a bit of getting used too. It sure is a fun game though.

I did managed to get my hands on Crysis and the PC version of Gears of War, so I can't wait to try those out. Still working on getting Assassins Creed. I tried to play some Portal this evening, but I didn't really get how it worked right away so I just shut it off and logged into COD4.

Now that I've updated to Leopard, I have a good monitoring system in place and my Warcraft server is just chugging along nicely I really want to spend time with my friends, girlfriend and get into digital photography and just play games. I'll let the systems run themselves, and I'll just use them as I see fit, no more adding or tweaking. I am hoping everything is just using the things I've setup and created for myself!

I updated the software on my photography website, now you can see EXIF data and stuff, way cool! :)

Anyways, I should probably get some sleep seeing as it's like ~12AM.
