Holy cats.  We keep finding more little things that need work, and our landlord\/repair guy team are being responsive and actually seem happy that we&#8217;re relaying this stuff to them.  They&#8217;re not annoyed that they have to fix things.  They seem to -want- to make sure the house is up to par.  It seems that they get that fixing things now means less work than having to fix a cascading failure later.<\/p>\n<p>That sounded geekier than intended.  In that vein, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ubuntu.com\/\">Ubuntu<\/a> installs have a habit of being at 33% of whatever they&#8217;re doing when I look at them.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I&#8217;m a little sleep deprived, why do you ask?<\/p>\n<p>While <lj user=\"nitoria\">, Cassie, and Aidan were napping, and while Hunter and Killian were playing, I sat upstairs in the finished attic and finished up a <lj comm=\"nambitions\"> piece.

Man, this post keeps swinging back toward the geek-centric content, doesn&#8217;t it?  Why am I even a little bit surprised?<\/p>\n<p>Much of my computer stuff has already been moved into the basement, where a wall-mounted workbench and metal shelving unit await their transformation into the <a href=\"http:\/\/setiathome.berkeley.edu\">SETI@Home<\/a> for Twilight Computers.  I&#8217;m not sure if any of the 486 machines survived, or if my oldest down there is a Pentium.  In any case once Comcast (some would say, the <a href=\"http:\/\/satan.ofdoom.com\/\">devil<\/a>) comes by on Wednesday, I&#8217;ll finally have the wired connection I need to sink my teeth into that project.  Not that I&#8217;ll have the free time to nurture it, but whatever.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.debian.org\/\">Debian<\/a> pretty much runs on its own, once it&#8217;s set up.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe some of the cardboard forest will be defeated tomorrow.
