I’m impressed

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

The laptop hard drive, which was ordered after 3 PM yesterday, and which I was told by the Compaq help desk person to not expect until Monday, maybe even Tuesday, arrived before 9 o’clock this morning. I probably won’t even attempt to work on that until Monday anyway though, as I’m leaving at noon today to head out of town and do the holiday celebration with the in-laws this weekend. I’m looking forward to it!

    Finally a bit of time to breathe! I’ve been busting my butt most of the afternoon. Had a bunch of database projects get thrown at me at the last minute and have been trying to get all of my “pending” file cleared away so I don’t have to think about any of it this weekend….
