Hot in Herre, yo.

The spelling is intentional, for those of you hip kids who are up to date with the "lingo."

It's currently 93.5 degrees F in my living room. Yup, that's hot. It was so hot today that I didn't say no when Nicole asked for a ride to work. It's worth it to be in the air conditioned car for an hour or so. The heat's good for ya, right? Helps ya sweat out all the bad stuff? Hrm, I hope so. About an hour ago, I was very close to breaking down and purchasing an A/C unit.

Work's kicking my ass. This job is pretty tough, but I'm learning, and slowly but surely getting the hang of things. A co-worker of mine has mentioned a few times how just when he thought he was getting the hang of things, something hit him upside the head and put him back into a state of confusion. This is happening quite frequently with me. The amount of knowledge I'm gaining is good, though. It feels like when I first started at N2H2 - learning Linux administration, TCP/IP networking, Web technologies. Now, it's RADIUS, SSL, and Windows administration. I did some Windows administration in a lab environment over at N2H2, but now I'm doing a lot more and needing to know a lot more..

It's gotten to the point where I broke down and bought a PC for the house. It'll eventually do double-duty in Nicole's MAME cabinet, but for now it's my XP client for a Win2K domain I set up with 2K Server and Virtual PC for Mac. Gonna have to bone up on group policy, Dfs, ADSIedit, and a whole lot more.

So there you have it. It's hot in Seattle, and will be tomorrow, too. Sunday it'll cool down, which is good, because I'm going to be heading to the drag races in Auburn. Last time I went it rained and I think I only saw 4 or 5 races. It was a waste.
