16th-May-2008 02:04 pm - Scarborough dreaming
Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer
So I woke up this morning after dreaming that I had been camping out at Scarborough Faire with several friends of mine. Lets see.. Vulpine was there, MustangKitty.. the Plague and The Sporked One of course. Luckyljw was there but I don't remember lifeblender; I think he had finals or something. The redhead and the viking were around as well. I'm not real sure why we were camping out there. At least in my dream it was fun. Oh and since it was my dream, the Carillon was playing most of the night.

Maybe this came up because I'd been thinking awhile back that they should do a night time Scarby.

Now I'm just in my four off-white walls at work, reviewing requests.
14th-May-2008 02:21 pm - Hmmm... am I taking two summer classes?
Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer
So far the Introduction to Databases course has 22 people in it so that one will make fine. However the Object Oriented Programming with C++ course only has 3. So yeah I don't think I'll be ordering the book for that one yet. :)

Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer

Looks like a good start to the summer. I'll have to see who is in the mood for what.

Wasn't really much to today. Went to work and then went to Logan's for dinner afterwards. I popped by Starbucks to see if the girls were doing the Monday night thesis/studying thing but didn't see them. Afterwards I came home, fired up World of Warcraft and ran the hunter while watching "The Holiday". Fun movie. :)

Now I'm going to read a bit in "First Rider's Call" then sleep.

This was a really good day. I got up when I intended to, went to Scarborough Faire, saw several spiffy people and then went to see Speed Racer. The movie was cool. Now I'm relaxing at home and watching a show on future air combat. :)
9th-May-2008 03:55 pm - Degree GPA and future plans
Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer
The degree audit tool shows "Program: Complete" for the Networking degree. Nothing surprising for the Spring 2008 grades.. As in all three classes. If I did the math right then it looks like I come out with a GPA of 3.74 for the courses on the degree plan. :) It would have been higher if I'd actually taken Microcomputer Applications instead of CLEPing it but yeah.. I'll live with the difference.

Course ideas for Fall 2008 )
7th-May-2008 02:05 am - Semester is done
Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer
Well the Spring 2008 semester is now in the record books.

I anticipate As in each of the three classes though I won't know for sure until next week after the grades hit the system. The Cisco stuff was tonight. I got a 92 on the written final which is about what I thought would happen. The skills test I aced. :) I even worked out one of the instructor's Access Control List of doom but it didn't matter since I already had my grade wrapped up.

Supposedly we'll be getting notified about a voucher thing for 50% off the cost of the actual Cisco cert test since we survived the classes.

The rest of this week is going to be relaxing. Next week I'll start doing some studying for the Cisco certification.

Now I'm going to go check in with the vampires and werewolves.

Well, Monday was an ok day I suppose. Went to work. Didn't really do much.. reviewed a couple of RFPs, tinkered a bit with mysql-proxy. I really should like my job more than I do. Oh well, it pays the bills which is kind of the point of a job.

After work I went to Starbucks for a while and reviewed for the Cisco final tomorrow. I'm just ready for it to be done. The degree is already locked up.. the Cisco class doesn't apply to it. Actually the degree was locked up last week when I turned in my last lab assignment for the programming class. Taking the final for the programming class was just a formality to get an A in the class instead of a B. Passing was never in danger.

I think I am going to go read a bit. I left the vampires and werewolves annoyed with each other last night.
2nd-May-2008 02:59 pm - Yay Friday
Saturday morning, Done, <3, Spork, Penguins, Jack Bauer
Its Friday again. This is a good thing. :)

Work is just kind of here. I'm sitting outside the office with my laptop working on reviewing "Standard Functional Specifications for Law Enforcement Records Management System, version II". Yeah, its exciting. I'm pretty sure the Master Vehicle Index wants to tell the Master Property Index just what Master Location it can index. Ugh, this shit is so boring I can't even make a good innuendo out of it. Heh.

Don't know what I'm going to do tonight yet. Tomorrow is some Cisco studying and then Iron Man/socializing tomorrow night. Sunday will be more Cisco and taking the final for my programming class. A friend is having an art show opening Sunday afternoon that I might try to make if I can find the place.
