Slaving to the computer

I thought I gave up computer consulting work.

Spent a good part of today playing computer geek. Felt just like my old computer consulting days, now I remember why I gave it up.

Angel bought a new 700 gig raid. Plus I updated the drivers on her older raids with SoftRAID since it has features that the built-in Apple raid software lacks like monitoring of the raids. In the middle of all this one of her very old raids that was made from two cheap firewire drives had a drive failure. No data lost but a good chunk of my day gone.

Then my neighbor called me back in town and he bought a new MacPro Tower so I set it up for him and moved everything from his old G5 tower. He is sick with bronchitis so I'm over there using hand sanitizer constantly and being real careful not to get too close to him or touch my face with my hands. He often comes back from Oklahoma with something and I've then caught it from him ending up sick so I'm really paranoid these days.

Still trying to decide if I feel like going out tonight or not. It's been raining on and off so it's not a very good night. Going to do a little web work and maybe go out or maybe just find a good movie to watch.
