What a day… 
Did some of the things that I was going to do yesterday today since all the things that I was going to do yesterday got changed, cancelled, or rescheduled and I did much of the things that I was going to do today yesterday but didn't do much of the things that I was going to do yesterday.
Went to the gym, then as I was leaving the gym Angel calls to tell me that four out of six RAIDs aren't showing up and she thinks her cat may have messed up some stuff. Turns out her cat or something pulled out a bunch of the firewire cables and all six of her RAIDs are degraded. Four of them seem to have lost one of their slices but the other two are rebuilding themselves. For some odd reason the four that lost their slices will not let me add a new disk to them so nothing to do but couple everything off the one remaining slice and set each RAID up from scratch which involves finding places to stash hundreds of gigs of data for each drive. Still doing the data shuffle and will still be still doing it into tomorrow before everything is backed up, reformatted, set back up into mirrored RAIDs, and then copied back. No data was lost but it is hours of hassle.
I did manage to get my car into the shop for the battery thing but didn't get anything else that I was going to do today down so now I'm another day behind. My cat Mystic is going the vet first thing in the morning to get fixed so I'll be starting my day real early. Probably a good thing since I seem to be so far behind in work.
Yesterday I got flood insurance on my house. The insurance broker that I use is where I adopted my black cat Katrina from. I brought Katrina with me so that all the girls in the office could see how she is doing. Katrina was only about five weeks old last time she was there last year but she seemed to recognize the office right away and went right to the room where she was kept and relaxed right away. Cats sure are kewl cute creatures. :)
I wasn't going to trim the last big tree that I had since it was street side and not close to my house but yesterday I had the tree trimmer trim it down to about half its size rather then risk having to remove huge broken limbs after the next storm so now I once again have a huge pile for Monday's bulk trash pickup.
