Christmas break

Well Christmas break started a little early for me yesterday with the crazy snow that piled up. I ended up working at home and missing the IT Christmas party due to the weather and the impossibility of driving down our little street.

I have the week off from work and it’s a good thing because I’m going to be all over the place. Monday and Friday are basically the only weekdays that I won’t be going somewhere. Tuesday we’re headed out to Chelsea to see my folks for the day and then go with them to my aunt’s annual Christmas-Eve-Eve party, then driving back home. Apparently another winter weather ‘event’ is supposed to break out on Tuesday so it could be some rough travel on the way home.

Wednesday is ash’s dad’s side of the family’s annual Christmas eve party at her parents’ house. Thursday is Christmas here and then going over to ash’s mom’s side of the family.

So it’s going to be a busy week. Hopefully the weather holds up and things don’t get too ugly.

In other news, I’m still waiting to hear when AT&T is going to come out and hook me up with UVerse. The dude who signed me up claimed to be out of town when I called him today (sounded like he was in a bar) and he said he’d call/email me tomorrow about it. I think he signed my neighbor up across the street last Saturday after I signed up and my neighbor definitely had it installed a few days ago already. Comcast internet has been spotty around then too so all the more reason to switch away.

Also, I’m trying to arrange for yet another move of our humble webserver to bigger and better hardware hopefully at a local (Grand Rapids) based hosting provider. Hopefully we can find some affordable colocation for a similar price to what we’re paying now. I don’t have high hopes though that we can afford it.

That’s all for now. brb.
