Nothing to see here

Then why post, might you ask? Well you might. But sometimes, "nothing" is good. For instance, I've nothing to report from DoD for the week past. That's good - no reported casualties. There's been no frost, so none of the veggies I've planted are dead. That's good. Also, I made the lawns flat this weekend, and got a bit of work done at the office on the virtualization infrastructure ... neither of which is "nothing". But lawns are boring, and by policy I can't discuss details of work. So ... pretty much nothing to see there. * * * Someone…

Mo' Snow

It has started snowing again, and is supposed to throughout St. Patrick's Day. Weird, eh? Lexi is gonna be cranky when all of her spots are covered up with snow, again! No real other news, I've had a busy weekend and gotten lots accomplished, from shopping and haircut to coffee roasting and building a small woodshop project for a coworker. Oh, yeah, and patched some Solaris boxen, and ... well, you get the idea. Sleep is for the weak. * * * No casualties were announced by DoD in the last week.
