We Wield Wii

Tuesday, April 24th, 2007

I got a Wii this weekend.

I’ve had the desire to purchase one since the first reports of the innovative controls, but I didn’t want to fight to get one at launch, and I was (am still) busy with school. During spring break, a friend let me borrow his Wii while he was out of town, and I came to love it even more. I pleaded with my wife and she conceded to allow me to purchase one.

Oui, oui…we Wii.

Kurt would love to tell you more about it.

Workin’ All Night

Monday, April 16th, 2007

Tuesday (10 Apr) I worked from 06:30 until 12:00. Went home for lunch, drove to school. I was in school from 14:00 until 17:00, then I drove home. I had a nice dinner with Becky, and started working on homework. I worked on homework until 21:00. At 22:00 I got a call from my boss Tony. He said the Network Operations Center (NOC) notified him that all of our servers were showing down. I drove into the office to try to figure it out. Tony and I worked on the problem until 04:30 Wednesday (11 Apr) morning. I drove home and slept until 10:30.

I got another call from Tony and he said that another problem cropped up that morning. I worked with him over the phone until I had to go to class at 14:00. After class I drove into the office. I arrived at 18:00, and Tony, Lae and I worked on the problem until 22:30. Drove home, went to bed.

Went to work Thursday (12 Apr) morning at 06:30 and ironed out all the subsidiary problems that seem to crop up when these sorts of problems happen. I worked until 12:00, then I went home for lunch, started watching 28 Days Later, then went to class. My second class was canceled, so I came home at about 15:45 and finished the movie.
