Another week has ended. Been a less than stellar week. Bad. stressful
dreams, anniversaries of bad things happening to good people, and me
finding myself low on cope and temper. At least I managed to knock
out a ton of out of date tickets today at Carcosa Corp.
I've been more vocal on Facebook, it's easier to spit out a one liner. And
since I don't have ssh access to remote from Carcosa, my usual workflow for
LJ/Wordpress doesn't work. Plus I spend a lot more time writing these things
than I do FB. Not leaving here though, it's just probably going to be a
weekend posting vs daily the way I was. We'll see.
Had my quarterly pshrink visit, things are pretty normal. I do need to get
a yearly physical before my next visit. Shouldn't be a problem. I may
even try to find a GP vs going to Carenow for everything. Need to take
better care of myself I think.
I've also offically decided to turn my gamer system into a new Linux
workstation. I've picked up some additional RAM, and a new SSD and platter
drive (6 TB for the price of 5). Next weekend I'll put my friends at
Dallas Computer Consulting to work and have them install all the bits and
test things, then I'll do the OS side of things. Then I'll probably
spend the next weekend tweaking all the tweaks, importing everything and
testing. If all goes according to plan, it will be a nearly seamless swap
of systems (I'll leave oldDagon running for a while in case my plans fail).
Then oldDagon will be repurposed as a home/backup server. Yay nerdery.
For those who care, I'll be moving back to Ubuntu's Mate flavor from
Linux Mint. Mostly so I can play the newer stuff coming in 16.04 next
month. I'll probably reinstall Hydra at some point to go back to Linux
Mint. Note, this has nothing to do with the security issues they've had.
I just feel a need to move stuff around. I'm also pondering going to a
more cutting edge kernel, instead of sticking with the Ubuntu defaults.
We'll see how everything works first.
Weekend plans? Tonight is my usual, with a side of laundry to catch up
on bedsheets. Tomorrow is a few errands,then social time with friends.
Bad movies and pizza and stuff. Sunday is more laundry and more friend time.
High content of resting. I also have books to read, so many books.
So that's the state of the fox, I'm not my best, but better than say a year
ago. Hopefully after this weekend things will swing up again. It should.
I have faith.
