I'm busy packing the office into boxes. Feather duster, windex, cleaning the white board... I'm having fun!

If it’s the main fan on the power supply... this one you can jam with something like a stiff wire (paperclip) stuffed through the mesh in the back, into the blades to jam it and make it stop. If the noise stops too... then that’s it.

Er... Jamming a paperclip into a live powersupply? Um.... ok. I don't think I would recomend that to anyone not uber-savy with high voltage components.

Heh... into the fan blades. Not so much the power supply. I could’ve said that better. :-)

So is this your last day in the old job? Do you start the new one tomorrow, or next Monday?

Last night I dreamed that someone was posting Ron Paul propaganda using my screen name. Strange. I was really ticked off.

Ungh...two Mondays in a week?

Does anyone know why they pay me to sit here and stare at this flat glowing thing? There must be a reason.

Not sure why they’re payin’ you.

Mrs. and I have been emailing back and forth about the vacation schedule for the year.

I could use some time off...

I am trying to figure out how to solve my ice dam problem. Lots of ideas. They all seem to require that ‘work’ stuff.

It’s busy at work, but I’m still trying to think of organization plans for home.

Most require both work and cash. And time. Ugh.

Ugh.

Our house is a mess, we’re halfway through projects, and the ice is massive.

Ugh.

I’d like to know how...for sweaters.

And I’d like to quilt. And do other types of sewing.

But I think that all needs to wait until I at least have work space. And finish the painting project.
