we are experiencing technical difficulties

first off, sorry for the outage earlier today. the physical machine this is hosted on decided to take a little vacation today. of course, this happened just as i’d finished all that Work From Hell and was itching to blog. i’m just glad it’s back and i didn’t lose any files. i think i need to do a back up some time soon, just in case.
so, yeah. all that backlog is completed. i’m the hero and everyone loves me for working my fingers and ass off so they can get paid next week. when i announced that i was finished, my boss stood up and shook my hand.
the server is still kaput and as of the time i left work today it was looking like it will still be down come tuesday. mike had to send the actual hard drive to california to a data recovery company to see if they can retrieve anything of use off it… for an $18,000 fee. gee, what a way to make money off other’s suffering.
i will indeed be going to the island to deliver mom’s mother’s day present. i’m glad of that. i could use a couple days away after this week. thank god it’s a long weekend.
other than that, my brain’s a little too fried to think of anything remotely interesting to parlay so i’m going to go eat some lay’s and watch dawson’s creek. have a lurvely weekend!
