Our lives revolve around traffic
Tuesday, June 21st, 2005Today began with me actually waking up on time. Well, more on time than of late. Lately, I’ve been setting my alarm for 6:00, and actually getting up more around 7:15. Today I set my alarm for 6:15, woke up, looked at the time, and then set my alarm for 6:45. Got out of bed at 6:44, showered, dressed, performed my daily hygiene rituals, and was out of the door by 7:15. That’s important because leaving by 7:15 means I get to work before 8. Leaving at 7:30 means I get to work around 8:30. Yay California!
So, at work on time, did some stuff at work, mostly… work. I did do some non-work things like, update my webpage! Yay! Check out my new homepage with redesigned title and sidebars. That motif is now continuous across my wedding and about me pages now. Also, I added some more photos as well.
On my commute home I got a page from work notifying me that our backup ISP circuit went down. So that’s not good, but I can look at it when I get home. About 27 seconds later, I get another page informing me that our main ISP circuit went down. So… okay… wha’ happened? I’m thinking I can check into it when I’m not cruising along at the rate of 440 feet per minute (bonus points to the first one who can tell me what my speedometer was reading at that time). About a minute later I get another notification (at this time I am thinking that this proves the whole place literally falls apart without me), but this one saying the main circuits are back up, and 27 seconds later a final notification that our backups are up. So, I don’t know what was going on, but it’s something I get to look into tomorrow.
But Kurt, what did you do then… ?
