Not tired

Jul 17, 2008 14:15

I got home at 5:30 and was fast asleep by 6:15. Hoppie woke me up by playing with the airco around about 8. He was amused that talking to me had no effect, but the beeping of the airco woke me instantly. We had dinner and watched the All Star Game....alot.
I went to bed during the 13th inning, but was still awake when hoppie came up during the 15th and since I was still awake he turned the TV on, so we saw the end. What a game. Francona is a lucky guy. And the game wasn't called for a tie. If he'd lost after his strategy of trying to let everyone play, that could have been brutal. As it is, he's going to earn the undying hatred of Tampa Bay fans and management (not that he didn't have it already.) Scott Kazmir is probably pleased to be able to get in the game and get the win though.

I woke up at 6:45. Which is as well because I had to go to work today. My computer sorta died yesterday. There was an odd smoky/charred plastic smell. IT popped the disk into a new chassis and verified that the battery and power cables still work and handed it back to me. That was quick and relatively painless. Yea! I'm hoping this chassis has a smoother keyboard.

Update: It does have a smoother keyboard, but what it doesn't have is network access. They've restricted all connections to trusted and known machines, and this one isn't. Ugh.

I really need to remember to post my blog posts when I've finished with them rather than keep them forever on the editing board.

sports, work, electronics
