Again, it’s been one of those weeks where the IT/Video guy is doing a lot of running.  It’s not bad, but just enough to keep me away from a computer for anything beyond repairs or email.

• I’m falling into an odd sleep pattern during the weekend that I am starting to like:  I’ve been sleeping on Sunday afternoon and evening, and then in the late evening I’ve been getting up and going to the church to take care of some IT issues.  Some would call that sick and wrong, but I’ve yet to find such a span of time that’s so free of distractions.  During the 8 or so hours I have before the staff rolls in, this gives me a chance to do maintenance on PCs that would be otherwise occupied, and also work on servers that I can’t bring down during the workday.  PLUS, since I’ve napped it up all afternoon, I’m wide awake the whole time.  I’m not suggesting that people do this…. this is just what works for me for the moment, and I justify it by staying at home on Fridays.

• After a few months of doing repairs and upgrades in my cubicle, I finally managed to land a storage space to use for a workbench area.  Trying to work on machines in a cube is just too messy.

• Jason has a great post on his blog regarding the importance of planning and testing backups.

• More NewPointe bloggers have hit the scene:
  • Danny Bunnelle, our music director, has begun blogging on all things creative.  You can find his blog, “iBlogCreativeStuf” right here.
  • Our very own Kevin West has also entered the blogging realm.  You can find his blog, “See The Invisible” over here.

• I realized this past week that warm weather makes me feel profoundly happy.  Winter, although it usually averages out the same, always seems to take longer than it should.

• I’m going to be moving.  I’m sort of looking forward to it, but not the actual moving process…. so much work….and SO much JUNK.

 Hopefully things will calm down soon and I’ll be able to get my brain realigned.
