Michael emailed me earlier today to tell me he’d be home late and not to wait for him for dinner. I’m sitting here eating some fish sticks and french fries.
On Easter things went pretty much as planned, we had Michael’s mother over and Michael roasted a whole chicken, made stuffing and broiled potatoes. He also prepared some cheese, crackers, bread and hummus for an appetizer. I ate too much and drank wine.
Over the weekend Michael learned of a Thomas Dolby concert coming up in the area and we got tickets. It’s being held in Sellersville on Friday May 5th. The location struck me as slightly odd as I didn’t think there was anything in Sellersville ;) but it’s great because it’s not far from where we live. Oh and I’m not allowed to tell weirdedsel because he was so excited about the same tour but then he learned it was at a 21+ venue. Poor boy.
Last night I attended a PLUG West meeting. I drove to Collegeville after work to meet at the townhouse of a guy I know from MontcoLUG who offered to give me a ride down. It turns out that he lives about 5 doors down from where smolas used to live.
The PLUG West meeting was held at Unisys in Malvern. The topic was on “Mission-Critical Enterprise Linux” presented by the Unisys guys, and mostly focused on Xen development work they’ve been doing. They also went into benchmarks they did on their crazy huge servers. In all it was a very interesting talk and we met in a very posh meeting room, they even fed us soda and cookies and we got printed nametags. After the presentation we got a tour of the Linux development segment of their giant server room which was quite a treat.
Today was a day.
Tomorrow evening we’re having our second to last Wednesday night Shaman class.
