The agenda

Things have been so busy with work stuff, social events, and unplanned website issues that a number of half-finished projects are sitting around waiting for me to get to. I hate when that happens. I get stressed when I have projects that are unfinished. So, starting tomorrow (tonight’s the Dave Matthews concert) I’m going to have to get busy with finishing the documentation for the top-secret project for Geek’s top secret new site, loading and testing the Web Album Generator on the laptop, finalizing my after-Gnomedex travel plans, setting up Angela’s new Mac (delivery expected on the 8th!) to work with the wireless access point, trying to study for A+, and trying to spend some time with my wife, all before leaving in just two weeks or so. I’ll have to fit those personal projects around a few social events, but hopefully not too many!

On top of that, there are a number of work projects that need to be completed before the 22nd. I need to upgrade all of our anti-virus software, I need to have final proposals finished for purchasing an XP system to use as a test system, to check for future compatibility issues, for a possible database upgrade, and a possible ISP switch that would involve us hosting our own mail server. (I’m not holding my breath on that one, it’ll cost some serious $$) I need to have a final recommendation on those darn T1 contracts that I’m still behind on. Then I have to have all of the August database work finished for the month on the 21st as well.

So, I’ll be busy. Hopefully the unexpected emergencies are done for a little while, so I can get things caught up again. Keep your fingers crossed!

    This week is shaping up to be as good as last week. Our Positni filters redirected hundreds of copies of the Sober virus into our quarantine over the weekend.
