The day started when I woke up. Surprisingly, I actually felt refreshed… As if I had gotten a full nights sleep. So I got up and headed to work. Grabbed breakfast at the usual Bagle Place (They know my order there when I walk in… Ham, Egg and Cheese on a Roll with Coffee and one of those tiny containers of OJ).
When I got to work, we were asked to volunteer to take the day off because we were above our quota for payroll. Seeing as I hate the job and most of my critical work was done, I volunteered and left. I headed home eager to take the A+ exam (See my earlier post!)… I met my mother for lunch and then headed out to a Technology Open House… Turned out to be with a recruiter, however she had opportunities with two big companies. One that I REALLY REALLY REALLY wanted to work for but have been unsuccessful so far. I’m hoping to get a call tomorrow… Wish me luck!
In the evening my mother and I went to Borders to pick up the new A+ guide so I can refresh on the new materials prior to taking the test. I was pleasantly surprised to find a $1 clearance table LOADED with computer books including some on ASP.NET, XML, and WAP….. All stuff I’ve worked with but don’t really own any reference materials on… so $60 got me 7 books… .normally valued around $300 or more.
Finished the night watching TiVo (Yay the TV works) and playing on There.com …. There is a cool VR/3D environment that offers games, puzzles, chat, etc… Similar to Virtual Places I guess only with better graphics.
Anyways, I’m tired now and gonna get some sleeeeeeeeeeep 🙂 g’night
FINALLY ANOTHER TiVo owner!!!!
Holy shit! I <3 my TiVo.
LOL…. Isn’t it just the BEST!
I actually got 2… One for me and one for my parents for the holidays a few years back… I have the Sony SVR2000 (The original series 1 PVR)
Which one ya got? Series 1 or 2?
Series2, 40 hour. I bought it and was going to upgrade, but i realized 40 is good.
Mine is the 20 hour version and even that is enough for me. Granted I can’t archive more than a weeks worth of programming, however thats what the DVD-R is for 🙂
