02/06/2002 Archived Entry: "LCD"

I'm back at my building today, covering for my sick cow-orker. It's given me a chance to clean up the help desk queue over here and feel productive on top of feeling sick.

One of the cool things about being back at my desk is that I've finally been able to wipe my box clean and load onto it our company-standard Win2k load instead of the bastardized home-brew Win2k image that I've had since September when I started. So, it's been a day of closing helpdesk tickets and setting up my computer.

I also am now peering at the Internet thorough my very nice Sony SDM-M81. And no, it's not just me--we're leasing these things up by the truckload and deploying them to all our users as the old monitor leases expire. I must say that I never thought the day would come when I'd have an 18" LCD on my desk.

So, a good day. I had sushi for lunch (spider hand roll, two pieces of unagi, two pieces of sake, two pieces of hamachi, and a spicy tuna roll), and this wonderful green tea ice cream for desert. Food is great. Food is one of the coolest reasons to be alive. Isn't eating awesome? I pity people who are picky eaters.
