Today was slated to be a typical day. Work, home, web, lay awake, sleep. But, it came to be more. I was headed home, and planned to stop to do some shopping. But, instead, I got a call from Laetitia reminding me that I was going to go there today to help her install some shelving in her house. My memory sucks. So, she said she had to stop at Wal-Mart, so I met her there. She had her son, Mikael, and her friend's kids, Brian and Kaitlin (I think..). Woah, shopping with a myriad of kids! Makes one really question the want to have children! heh.. Question, perhaps, but I think my overall desires remain intact. But it was an interesting experience nonetheless.

Afterwards, we made it to her house, and I started working on the shelf. She said she had everything she needs, including drill bits. Nope. Gotta come back another time. But she was kind enough to make me dinner anayway. :) So, I ate with the kids. Fun! hehe.. It actually was a fun time. After the kids went to bed, I played with MiniHummer, the hampster. It was a real fun night overall, and I'm glad I went. She has also invited Sean and I for dinner soon.

After getting home, I get a call from work. Oh, joy. Just what I wanted to do, RAS into work and poke around a sick box. It sure did need a reboot. The harddisk /opt was no longer accessible. Kernel puked on it. So, after a reboot it worked. I'll save the forensics for tomorrow. I just hope they let up on that damn paper shreader! OH! And I almost forgot about today's emergency meeting! I summarize it by saying, in the voice of Mommy Dearest yelling "NO WIRE HANGERS!" - "NO WIRELESS KEYBOARDS"! heh.. It seems that someone high up in the company had trouble logging in this morning. The trouble was tracked down to a bad wireless keyboard. I haven't seen such a tiss even for total outage conditions! heh.. Joy.
