Must focus..

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I know what I liked most about having the office across the hall from me empty. When you’re focusing on details, say in trying to run accounting reports which are very detail intensive, and the person across the hall is having a meeting in their office, it’s very hard to tune them out. I’ll be shutting the door and turning on some music now. 🙂

Still have a lot of work to get through this week, before I can even begin to look forward to our trip to Baltimore this weekend. It’ll be nice to spend three days just being with Angela and exploring a new place. Then I’ll come back to more heavy workload, with new employees starting, more of the job search, and I’ll probably be starting work on a side-job building an Access database for one of Jim’s clients as soon as we get back.

Yeah, the more I think about it, the more I really am looking forward to the break! OK, back to reports for me!

    Since Andy brought it up, I will point out that the Dell Axim has been working fine for me, but I haven’t been doing anything interesting with it. This weekend, however, I’ll be giving it quite the workout, as I’ll have a Pocket Streets map of downtown Baltimore, I’ll be taking a look at a…

    Personal Tech update

    Just an update on some things I’ve been doing. Angela already wrote about the Roomba, so I’ll leave that alone, other than to say, as a gadget type of guy, I’m fascinated by watching it work. (Of course, the whole point is that it works while you’re doing something else, so I need to break…

    Some interesting points raised by this article about the legalities of wireless access. I think the ending is probably right on: But ultimately if we want to move to ubiquitous wireless computing, where you can use the WiFi protocols for cheap, mobile VOIP communications, or have near universal wireless Internet access, we are going to…

    I obviously was having a brain fade there for awhile. If I wanted 3 columns but didn’t want to go through the hassle of putting all of the tweaks back in, why not just convert my current template into a 3 column design? Obviously, I figured that out and will be moving things around for…

    Yes it’s true, I hardly touched my computers all weekend long. The only time I spent online really was Saturday night, getting the latest inury updates before the fantasy footballl draft yesterday and then last night, checking the meager job listings in various places that we want to live in. After last week I wanted…
