I'm Back

I am in St. George again. Had a pretty good trip up and back. Brought some more computers for Cedar City with me.

Going to Salt Lake

I am going to Salt Lake Thursday and Friday for the semi-annual LAN Conference, which I guess will be renamed the TECH Support Conference since they are changing our job titles. Oh well, LAN Administrator sounded so much more important than Tech Support Specialist, but as long as they don't cut my pay, I guess I don't care.

I calculated today that I maintain 211 computers at work. That is more than anyone else in the state.

Harry Potter news

I just heard that the lawsuit against J.K. Rowling by another author saying that she copied names from her book has been decided. Not only did the court find that they suspect the author was lying, they made her pay court expenses to J.K. Rowling and Warner Bros. This is great news.

A new Week

Back at the old office. I'm not feeling too good today, but I have to be in since I am setting up a computer for a person that complains constantly to upper management whenever she sees an opportunity, plus I am secretly hoping that I will cough on her and get her sick. She brought her computer in last week and put it down on my nice desk on the glass and put a serious scratch in it. Since my monitor is behind that glass, I get to look at the screen through a wonderful scratch.

In home news, Shaylie got the new Rolie Polie Olie DVD, I think she really likes it. Taylor is doing well in school. Both Taylor and Shaylie had pictures last week. Will pass them out when we get them.

Here comes the rain

And the rain, rain, rain, came down, down, down. The rain is pooring down here. Our street is a river again. Taylor is out playing in it. Shaylie wasn't too interested in it. Will put pictures on soon.

Fair at the Mall....Again

They had another fair at the Mall parking lot today. Taylor and I went from 3 till 8:15. She rode everything about five times. She had a great time. Pictures coming soon.

People are funny

I love some of the people I work with. I just got a call about a computer problem, I asked her to find her ip address, this is something that I have shown everyone how to do. She says "How do I do that?" I told her that there is a white square next to her clock the screen. She asks me "what does the clock look like?" I tell her it is in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. She can't see it. So I ask her to find the start button, she does, I tell her to look straight across from the start button to the right side of the screen for the clock. Still can't find it. In a last ditch effort, I ask her if there is anywhere on the screen that is telling her the time. She says the time is in the bottom right hand corner of the screen. Next we move over and find the white icon. Once she got me her ip address, I fixed her problem in about 5 seconds. I love my job!

Everyone's sick, except for me

Cough's and sniffels abound. Tonya's sick, Taylor's really sick, Shaylie is the one that got them sick. I brought back gifts from grandma J. Taylor really like her new clothes, and she really liked the box that the toybox came in. Shaylie wore her new pajamas and liked them a lot. She loves her toy box, she put all of her toys in first thing and learned how to shut it. Shaylie is speaking very well, it is nice to know what she wants.

I have the day off tomorrow, going to get caught up on chores.
