Today...

I slept most of the morning. I managed to get up, but then had a nap. OK, so that's better than usual. And I didn't get to bed until something like 03:00 last night, so maybe it's not so bad. Well, it's coming on 02:00 and well I haven't gotten to bed yet. Still probably at least a couple of hours of time before I go to bed. So well, doesn't look like I'll get to bed until something like 04:00 tonight. Damn that sucks. Tonight thankfully it's something productive, just wish I got it done before now. Well, we'll see how long it takes.

What did I get done today. I went for a walk this afternoon. I spent a lot of time on the computers. Got some stuff installed on one computer, but unfortunately it's not working. Oh well, we'll see if we can get it working, or maybe change the hardware that we have purchased and replace it with something compatable with the software we have. This machine has been a real frustration.

Working on backing up all 4 machines. Well the four main machines. Not the two laptops which are not currently in use. Well, time to check that backup upstairs...

OK, looks like I might get some sleep in about an hour or so. It looks like the next step of the whole backup might actually take long enough that I don't want to stay up for it. I'll see how it all looks when I'm at the point that I'll be backing up the ``next'' machine. As of now, 1 machine is partially backed up (about half), and 1 machine is on it's way to being fully backed up (should be in about an hour), then I have the two machines that I haven't backed up at all, or have only partially backed up, and get those done. Might take some time. I'll see how it all goes, looks like it could be a while. I'll see.

That's kind of it. Doing a lot of work on getting computers to do what I want them to do, or what whoever is mostly going to be using the computer wants them to do. Damn it takes a long time to back up these machines. Wish I had realised that before. 4 machines, about an hour to do the burn to DVD on each machine, and then, well whatelse? Right creating the backup files, and transfering those backup files to the computer that does the backup. So it's slow at times.

I'm finding that I have too much to do in the amount of time that I have to do it. So, something has to go. And I want that something to be something that I'm choosing to go, not something that I just haven't gotten to in a long long time, and just deciding maybe it's time to let it go. That won't work. I think maybe the thing that has to be made lower priority is chatting on IRC except for the chats that are related to 12 step groups I belong to.

Oh, well. I forgot to finish this off... Well here it is finished, probably more than 12 hours after it started. I don't know. Somewhere in that range.
