Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeThe air conditioning unit sits smack dab in the middle of the house within the garage. Ever since I busted the garage door too much outside air makes it into the garage creating much condesation on the unit. It has a pump that collects the condensation and pumps it 30 feet to the outside of the house. It is a total abnoxious setup and the pump has gotten to such a state that it runs all the time now.
Well, I think last night it may have died. Which is good in that we won’t hear its horrid noise all the time. But bad in that I may have a water problem to contend with quite shortly. Fortunately, I have already contrived a solution. To my wife’s chagrin it may involve tearing out a piece of wall!

This Morning
My brother and his wife will appreciate that I am listed on Chiropractic Blogs!
I like numbers. So I woke up this morning at 4:44 and then again at 6:06. I should have stayed up at 4:44 of course.
Anyhow, today’s focus is purely programming. I want to make major headway on my european project.
Today is the last day for early voting so I must get that done so I’ll have to take some time to look up some issues and make sure I’m thinking correctly rather than thinking what I’ve been told.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeMy half naked Thursdays have almost become half naked Fridays. Thanks to Tim and Cathy for reminding me!
I think that’s about half of me.
The evening July 29, 2004 5:15 pm
Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeTook Tommy to STAR and on the way North Shore was flooded so I had to re-route us but still managed to take back roads almost to Lenior City. I love back roads! I really enjoy rural TN. It’s interesting when a tree is down across a road or it is flooded around here because you get this long backup of traffic in one direction then have an occasional car drive by the other way. Seems no one ever thinks, “at this time of day shouldn’t more cars be coming?” Of course, the only way to discover what is truly going on is to drive to the point of the closure and turn around to become one of those few cars going the other way that no one thinks to question. Well I question them now!
While Tommy got some horse riding in, Amy, Cathy, Noah and I played on playground. I demonstrated to the 8 year old some climbing techniques that had mom frowning and will have my back aching later. Amy only got kicked in the face once. She is so tough and plays so hard and tries to keep up with the big kids so much that she constantly looks abused. Between Tommy and Amy I am sure we will have an interview with DCS one day.
Ended the evening with a unique pleasure! A very good friend of mine looked me up and we chatted in length. He even suggested an employment opportunity that will require some deep thought and heavy consideration. I could have talked the rest of the night. It really makes my day when old buds find me or I find them. In our crazy adult parental lives it is so easy to become so egocentric that you begin feeling alone and without friends. Of course, communication and maintaining friendship is a two way street and I don’t even stay in touch with my family enough much less my friends.
Time to hunker down to some coding. I had promised the wife some quality time tonight. I’ll have to rain check for tomorrow.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life2 psuedo-marketing emails sent
appointment scheduled with ITT Technical Institute admissions. I need to get paper from somewhere. I’d like to have a degree from UT but ITT or Devry will have to do. My ego doesn’t like it. I feel they are 2nd hand but its better than buying a fake one. Perhaps my impression will change after I visit them on Tuesday.

Posted by djuggler in : Daily LifeDomain name transfer requests along with all email, ftp etc information compiled for 5 domains and sent. That will both save $129/mth and allow me to turn on the heat with my http://www.sidesigns.com and http://templates.sidesigns.com sales.

-Sales calls for Content Monkey
-Submit Resume(s)
-Update Dice, Monster, Linked-in and other online job tools

I did not get much sleep last night. As a result, I have started the day panicy. To success I have to do the work of 4 or 5 people. I really need help.
