A few things have happened that make me take notice of my life and realize I need to get some things in order.

Arnold Schwarzenegger is most likely the new govenor of California. That’s another good reason never to go to California.

The Cubs quit their 95-year suckiness for a temporary stint in the NLCS. They beat the Braves to get there. They’re playing the Marlins, who beat the Giants to get there. If I was making a bracket, I would be out at the first round.

And the Red Sox won too.

Let me say that again. Arnie is govenor, and the Cubs and Red Sox are fighting for the World Series. If I see Zane and the other Incarnations around the Doomsday clock, I’ll know it’s time. Until then, I gotta get some things in order.

There was a fire alarm in DCL today. It didn’t turn out to be anything, but it made me nervous. This was a full backup weekend, and as the alarm went off I was thinking “how many tapes can I grab?” I didn’t get any; there’s nothing prepared. I ran around, making sure the labs were empty, and then took an early lunch.

Thinking about fires at work reminds me of SSI, where the place I worked that _did_ burn down. It’s scary. I don’t want to think about losing everything I’ve worked for… again…

But rest assured by the end of the week I’ll have a new set of offsite backups prep’ed.

Speaking of off-site, the move to Siebel is only a little over a month away, and there’s a ton of things we still need to do. Just getting the networking squared away for the move is consuming alot of mine, Chuck’s, and Nate’s time. I’ve been trying to get WPA/EAP/TKIP working on a Cisco 1200, although we may not go with those as the APs for the new building. We need to get that figured out soon.

Go Marlins.
