Last Saturday Kris from my old job came over. She’s really into gardening and gave me a few shade and wet ground loving plants (woo!) as well as a few nice flowers that I was able to get planted earlier this week. It’s nice to finally have a “real life” person to consult about gardening […]

Not a great week for women in tech…
March 31st, 2007 by pleia2
It has not been a good week for women in Tech. Probably a quarter of the people in my friends list are women in tech, and so probably aware of what’s been going on this week, so I suppose this entry isn’t for you! There are no shortage of opinions online already, so lucky for […]

The YMCA
March 28th, 2007 by pleia2
Today was cooler than yesterday, but still a nice day. After work ended around 4 I got on some heavy gloves and hit my gardens! I spent about an hour cleaning out leaves and the dead plants from last year, by then Michael was home and we went inside to plan dinner. It was nice […]

Spring!
March 27th, 2007 by pleia2
Today was beautiful. The sun was out with just a few clouds, the temperature got up to 77 degrees. I’m so glad I have a job working from home so I can open the windows and enjoy at least the breeze while I’m working, it makes me feel so good. Spring isn’t my favorite season, […]

Primetime Linux?
March 25th, 2007 by pleia2
Earlier this month I talked some about all the great things that are working in Linux now. I started using Linux in early 2002 when Michael installed Redhat 7.2 on my computer. I was dual booting with Windows 2000 at the time, but with Michael’s help (and the help of a few friends online) I […]

Beer (again!?) and a new book
March 24th, 2007 by pleia2
I have been writing about beer a lot, it’s just that it’s springtime and beer events keep coming up :) Plus, I haven’t really felt like blogging extensively about the projects I’m working on. The local beer bar, Ortino’s Northside, is holding a beer event tomorrow night with none other than Lew Bryson! Lew is […]

I woke up this morning and I think I’m finally over being sick, just the tiredness remains. What a crappy week. The cats are acting very weird this morning.

Sick, drupal and my weekend
March 20th, 2007 by pleia2
I had a bad day. Around midnight last night I woke up with an upset stomach which lasted throughout the night so I slept horribly. I finally got out of bed around 7AM, sat at my desk until I realized that the pain in my stomach was too bad so I shot an email off […]
