• It has been an interesting week for sure. And of course by "interesting" I mean "awful." The strangest part about it was that nothing particularly evil happened. Work has been busy, but good. Sum it up to just having been one of those weeks, I guess.
• My car started sputtering yesterday on my way back to the office from Arby's. I have heard suggestions that the cause of this intermittent issue is the spark plugs, spark wires or perhaps the fuel filter. An agent at work gave me the name and number of a local mechanic who does good work inexpensively. He will be receiving a call from me this afternoon.
• I just watched some guy out the window leaving the office wearing a t-shirt that stated, "If you can't race it or take it to bed, it's not worth having."
• I was very pleased to find out that the network operations centre that is home to my server was not forced to use emergency generators to maintain service, despite their being only a thirty minute drive from Manhattan. This event reminded me of a time I was driving through Jacksonville from Tallahassee on my way to Orlando and the power company there, JEA, suffered a failure that blackened the largest city geographically in the contiguous United States (Sitka, Alaska is the largest in the entire United States). I grew up fifteen minutes away from Niagara Falls and have been on the public tours of the hydroelectric power generation stations, one of which was alleged to have been struck by lightning yesterday.
• I do not have any big plans for the weekend. Probably going to stay home most of the time and do things around the house.
