dude...

The FedEx man just dropped off a pretty Dell box. Inside it was a brand new shiny laptop. This thing is pretty sweet. The leather bag that came with it actually weighs more than the laptop itself. Plus, I've got a 6 hour battery to supplement the standard one that came with it. Looks like DVD movies on the plane for me :)

Tis done!!!

That's right. The office is done. Look at pictures, but don't drool on your monitor, it's mine ;-)

Office update

Last night I got one (small) section of the other three walls painted, the coffee table finished, the print server hooked up (no more HP visible :) and the bookcase put up. So all that's left is to paint the other three walls and figure out what I'm going to do about lighting. Ikea no longer sells wire lighting that will plug into an outlet, so I have one of two options:

  1. Do something else (blech)
  2. Use the overhead light in my closet to mount the transformer, and run a wire through the wall to run the lights

I'd like Option B, but I have to figure out how I'll tell my clothes apart in there with no lights :). Oh well, Kris dresses me anyway, so will there really be a difference? :)
