Today:

Gave a presentation at the monthly IT briefing on the status of the BB upgrade. I was called upon to do so because the PM is on sick leave this week, and the guy who has weaseled his way into her go-to guy spot has a fear of public speaking (even though it's inherently a job requirement, imho). Presentation went well, and I suspect that I may be the go-to guy now (as a result of this and just generally being much better at communicating with large groups). This likely means I'll be sent to DC in July for a day or two.

After the briefing, the entire fucking campus network went down, so no work, none of the major things I needed to do for the new house, and no LJ for hours on end. Lovely. No attempt being made to catch up on LJ, other than quickly glancing at [livejournal.com profile] tvpicks to ensure that, indeed, Arrested Development is back! Yes, Fox actually failed to cancel a good show in its first year for the first time in five or six years!

The big news? We're signing the lease on the house today, and, U-Haul willing, we'll be moving this Saturday instead of next! [livejournal.com profile] gmslegion and [livejournal.com profile] jet_li_wannabe (both of whom had wonderfully committed for next weekend), if either of your schedules are free this weekend, we sure wouldn't turn you down! (feel free to fill out [livejournal.com profile] shadesong's poll at http://shadesong.livejournal.com/1875908.html as well).

No time for my usual entertainment web-surfing today. Sorry.

Dinner and/or other entertainment?!

Ew. Afraid the kids and I will be in Nashville this weekend. Sure you won't need me on the 29th?

If you come to DC without getting in touch with me, I'll be forced to kick your butt. :-) My phone number, e-mail, and domicile have all changed since you were here last, so be sure to put a note in your LJ, okay? It would be lovely to see you again. I'm going to WorldCon again this year (in Boston), so I won't be in Atlanta for Dragon*Con.

Congratulations on signing the lease and good luck on the move! And I'm glad they reinstated Arrested Development, as I know you really liked that. Now if only they would bring Wonder Falls back, I'd be happy too.

*hugs*

ah -- the campus network went down.

That explains why my email to my dad (an emeritus there) bounced back.

Small world...
