sleeping. That’s not being diabetic that causes it. Chalk it all up to being over tired and too much sleep from last night.

Mo brought his little laptop with him but he couldn’t get a wifi port going but he said he’ll do that download for me tonight and I should bring a USB cable along and my player. The music I want shouldn’t take anything more then 512Mb and I cleared off my 512Mb Sd card. If he’s in tomorrow and he downloaded it for me, then great. We’ll see.

I left out of here just about 4pm yesterday. It was very warm out there. When I got in Rob even had the bank report posted. Good stuff. I brought in last week, $1250 but not enough to earn a bank bonus. Some of the staff were telling me that Rob doesn’t want people pulling in extra hours because they burn out. I understand that. But I think according to one of the staff there telling me (last night) that if you make line hour for the morning then you can work afternoon. I haven’t heard anything about that for the evening for working afternoons. I don’t know, I think it’s time for me to move on. I’m really getting tired of the job I have there and I’d love a security guard job. I think on Monday, I’ll ask Amad about the security guard job. Anne doesn’t mind me working graveyard duty. I don’t mind it as long as there’s not a lot of patrolling involved. I like that 4 days on and 3 off type thing.

Anne’s working in the afternoon today because they canceled her shift on Wednesday. Buggers. So, because I can’t sleep, I’m going to blog this before hand and save me some time for the morning. I’ll get up at 8am instead. That will get me 5 hours of sleep.

After work today,, I’m hauling my Compaq over to Fs. Hopefully they have the ram there but I’m going to call first to see if they do. I don’t want to have to end up hauling my computer over in the heat only to find out they don’t have the Ram for my machine. They’re going to have to test it first anyway regardless. The other thing is, I’m going to see how much performance difference going beyond the extra 512 Ram and add another 512 Ram card will be. I know there will be a huge difference going from the base 256 I have now to an extra 512. To 768. But how much more difference in performance will there be with x2 512 cards in there? I imagine the performance will be significant. I have 4 Ram slots. When I get the extra Ram I’ll have 3 slots filled. 256k, 512k, 512K. Over 1 and a half gig. Later on I’ll max the Ram to full capacity. Most likely by the end of the year. Then I might get the KVM switch and the router next and with any luck at all, I should have $100 bucks left. The router is $45, Ram $145, KVM switch $70.That’s $260 out of my $365. I think I’ll get that “Year's Best Science Fiction Twenty-Fourth Annual Collection” by Gardner Dozois. Audrey’s is selling it at $21 bucks. There are some stellar names in this collection. Besides SF signal is reading it so I might as well too.

Oh, about work yesterday. I ended up getting 2 credit cards. We ended up doing Edmonton Comedy fest. It’s a good campaign. I don’t know how many cities are on this tour but we could do all of them and as long as we have taps for them. I’d be happy with that, I did a lot of verifying in our section and I got credit cards for some of the other staff in our tap shooter section. More later.

That’s all for now.
