I had a great day at work today. Casey and I finished going through the installation of IBM DB2 and IBM Directory Server in a clustering environment. Tomorrow we are all ready to start on the IBM Tivoli Identity Manager installation, complete with screen shots. It’s a real pleasure working with Casey. He is a … Read more
I had a good day at work today. I finished up the rebranding activities (for the most part) for the UNIX version of the installation guide. I’m all set to work with Casey tomorrow getting screen captures on the cluster installation on Windows. I had planned to stay in tonight, and “clean up” and do … Read more
I had a restless night last night, waking up several times during the night… 2:33, 4:24, and finally, 6:15, at which time I just got up. I’m having some pain in my neck that I’ve been trying to ignore for a little while now. I think it’s probably related to that incident at the beach … Read more
I got up at about 9:30 this morning. I checked the time of the Palm Springs Pride Parade, which I thought started at 1:00, but found out it was starting at 11. Since it was an hour and a half away, I decided to bag that trip. I piddled around, had cereal and toast, check … Read more
I slept in until about 10:30 today. After logging in and checking the local events, I decided not to go to Palm Springs for their Pride Weekend. The actual parade is tomorrow morning at 11. I may take a road trip to that. Early afternoon I rode out to Newport Beach. It was a short … Read more
During lunch I ran back to the hotel to change rooms. This is my third room, and I’ve only been here six days. Hopefully it’s the last one, unless I check out and back in during the time Steve is visiting next week. Right before leaving work, I noticed that dancing tonight started at 9:00PM, … Read more
I had a good evening. I went with Sam to eat at Thaifoon. Yum. Yum. I had the Pad Thai dish. Don’t know what was in it (shrimp was the staple), but it was good. We shared an appetizer of spring rolls before dinner, and the dinners come with a complimentary dessert — some delicious … Read more
Happy Halloween. A lot of people dressed up at work today — under severe pressure from Kim. She had a few headbands (cat ears, mouse ears, etc.) and several cans of spray paint. Those who arrived to work without a costume early enough were lucky to get a headband. Those who arrived later, got their … Read more
Spent an hour with Brad, the trainer, going over installation and configuration. He was quite engaging despite seeming yesterday to not really want to do the session. I thanked him for his energy. I met another whole bunch of folks today. Too many names to remember. I started the update of the UNIX installation guide. … Read more
I met Kim at work at 8:10, 10 minutes late. As I was walking out this morning, I stopped by the front desk to tell them that I don’t think I’m in a non-smoking room, that it smells like smoke when you walk in, and I smelled smoke all night in the comforter. She said, … Read more
