So... After doing some soul-searching, I decided that I needed to get my act together and get my MCSE Certificate. Considering I've been a Linux user and admin for the last 10 years now, this wasn't an easy decision to come to. BUT, it is one I've been thinking about for the last several years ( Read more... )

Well, I don't work in porn anymore. As of today, I am no longer a FriendFinder Networks employee. I won't go into the gory details, but I will say that the biggest factor in my stress and depression over the last few months is no longer an issue ( Read more... )

Well, I've been slackin' on posting to the blog... I've been *very* busy at work and playing lots of WoW at home. At work, we have lots of new hires, and I've been actually getting away from my desk and working on user machines. I have done quite a bit of server playing though. My biggest headache at the moment is the fact that I'm thoroughly ( Read more... )

So we hired a new either director or manager of Infrastructure here at work. He starts today. We decided to give him a linux box and I installed Fedora Core 6 on it.

Well, I was going to go in to work today to finish something I should have finished on Friday... and I may still do so. I've been feeling pretty lazy today.

When will the insanity fucking STOP!?

Korean Air Bans LaptopsJesus. Am I going to have to take a fucking certificate of 'it's not a fucking recall model battery' onto my next plane flight ( Read more... )

Yeah, my boss pulled me aside whilst en route from the fridge to my desk to make something work. The nerve of that guy! Geez, you think I've got better things to do than play WoW all day, huh?

Oh well... Time to get busy. :-) This stack of RT requests won't resolved themselves, will they?

Well, it's another Monday at work. Today's filled with lots of new-hires we were notified of on Friday that started today. We usually ask for a week's notification at the earliest. Unfortunately, they expect us to be Gods and pull these miraculous deployments right out of our asses. How cool is that ( Read more... )

Yes, I truly believe that I'm a woman sometimes ( Read more... )
