How did you spend your day?

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I spent a good part of my day today at 14,000 feet, at the summit of Pike’s Peak. Yesterday I spent all day between 10 and 12 thousand feet getting the grand tour of Loveland Pass, Silverthorne, Breckenridge, Lake Dillon and Leadville, thanks to my friend, Steve. It was awesome to get to spend the day with someone I hadn’t seen for 4-5 years.

On the downside, however, once I got down from the mountains today and back into cell phone range, I got the voice mail from work telling me that one of the VP’s PC won’t start. Guess I’ll be troubleshooting over the phone first thing tomorrow morning. Yipee! 🙁

    So after another eventful Monday at work, mostly with routine junk, email updates, and Staff Meetings that are normal for Mondays, I went home with even more work to do. No, I didn’t give Red Hat another try. After that debacle I needed to actually accomplish something, so I started work on the Job Search…
