A little like smoking
I’ve found myself reaching for my iPhone and my twitter client, which I’ve deleted. It’s like reaching for smokes all the time. Oh well. It’ll pass. Now I need start getting projects in order.

Simplifying
So, I’m breaking up with twitter. But not just twitter. I’m reorging my tech heavy life to try and get focus and control back. My focus and time management are trashed and with ADD, a very delicate thing to begin with. So I’m pulling a Star Trek reboot on how I do things and the [...]

Silly @ work
Had a conversation with my coworker about customer service asking for passwords on the phone. It devolved into us taking turns in creating the fictitious one side phone support call transcribed below. At the time we laughed our asses off.

Must remember
I’ve been trying to remember to blog I’ve got a number of good fixes to document including wp-hascash error corrections and getting wifi to work properly in Ubuntu with an Atheros chipset. But I’m just so overwhelmed with work and life. Oh well. Soon.

Dear retailer, suck it up.
So, there I am getting my lunch at a chain eatery. I have their stupid little club card and decide to cash it in and pay for some of my meal with it. After much sliding of cards and punching of touch screens the clerk finally tells me I’ll owe .54 cents. So I make [...]
