Turns out that Qwest is locked out of the phone room here, so I went on a quest (hah) to find out who to talk to. Found the Association Manager, who is from a professional management company. He wasn’t in today. Left a message with his assistant at 8:15 am asking for …
Interestingly enough, it turns out that the wall plate for the phone in the office was painted – on the inside. Yep, inside. Also, for good measure, one of the wires on the DSL line was clipped.
So new wall plate in place, the DSL is now in the office, and all is well …
If you’re seeing this entry, you’re getting the page from the new condo location. We were down for roughly 24 hours, and I hope none of you were suffering withdrawals.

Then, to round the evening out, I had “the …
The photos from Beaver Creek are now up over at the flickr. Check them out.
In other fun happy news, my 10.4.4 box at work has kernel paniced twice in as many days after the update. My powerbook at home seems to be fine in that regard, but it only sees 2 hours a …
The Mac OS X 10.4.4 update has killed my samba connectivity at work leading to dropping of the network shares every 20 seconds or so. Geigh. I’m going to apply the combo updater to see if it fixes the issue.

Friday was Kelli’s birthday and we went to Ruth’s Chris to have fatty, buttery steaks. That was pretty awesome.
Saturday involved a lot of sleeping, and missing a coaches meeting at the dojo because I didn’t know about it. But in the evening we wandered down to Chaser’s and watched The Strand and Mankind …
