2 or 3 more weeks!

I'm awake. Can't sleep.. geeking out about "Leopard", CS3 and iLife '08. So I'm up consolidating files on my laptop so I can wipe it clean and start over with some new software and a new OS. My laptop seems to be getting slower by the months but it still runs hard for me. Getting iLife from a friend named "Demonoid". So far it's been downloading for 24 hours and I have about 13 to go so by lunch tomorrow I should have it! At which point I will have all my crap saved somewhere and Leopard ready to install!

Sorry geek moment.

Courtney is doing well. She's kind of mad because the doc said she's not dilated in the slightest yet. We expect baby Makayla sometime around Thanksgiving still. Believe me though, she's going to try every trick in the book to have her early! Most of her clothes are washed and I even took the swing out to leave in the living room. Sort of a reminder of how little time of "peace and quiet" we have left. I'm happy though. We also got her car fixed up, apartment carpet deep cleaned, kitchen organized (there are 2 cabinets full to the brink with baby stuff), baby stuff assembled and the hospital bag packed.

Work stuff is going alright. Had a lot of progress on Friday and Monday then the entire network crashed. Oh JOY. I was down at the end of Monday and most of Tuesday. Today we decided to try and install the new Mac operating system 10.5 (or Leopard) onto one of the machines and wound up just wasting our time. We're not going to mess with it for a little while now. Have to meet a Friday deadline because Brian will be out on Mon/Tue. Friday our new designer, Amanda comes in to fill out paperwork, claim her cubicle and go pee in a cup. Yay for drug tests. Monday she officially starts and I will now have time to concentrate on bigger stuff that's going on at the company. Woohoo! Now let's just see if she sticks around...

The next few weeks are full of adventure. I can see it already.

Medic!

Been playing Team Fortress 2.. lots of fun. That and the combination of Portal and Half-Life Episode 2.. been busy gaming. We're going to try to build up [EASY] clan again. They tried to do it with Battlefield 2 but it's just not as fun.

On the work side we had a couple of interviews with some really good potential designers and have another one tomorrow. Hopefully we can reach a decision by Friday and bring them in the next week or two. Courtney lost her first football game poll this week. She is now tied with somebody else in the office.

Last last Sunday (the 4th) I saw Mike. He came over and we hung out. Played Wii and watched my Small Hours movie. Got some lunch and stuff. Was a good day for just hanging out. This last weekend we watched Courtney's sister and had a work baby-shower for us. It was interesting. We had a game where there was candy bars melted into diapers and you had to guess the type of candy. Got lots of good stuff and later on we bought the rest of the stuff we had on our list. We now have everything we need to start off. This Wednesday we have a newborn care class and by this weekend we hope to have everything in order for Makayla. This means getting Courtney's Neon back in good working condition ($$$) and deep cleaning the house and Makayla's stuff. We only have a month to go and Court is hoping to go into labor in a few weeks. Some speculation says that she is "dropping" and should go into labor early. We're getting a lot of attention in public places now too. Well, she is. "When are you due? Is it your first one? Boy or Girl?" That's about the gist of the conversations.

Ah well. It's late and I should get some sleep.

Go Patriots!

So Courtney has had an undefeated score with the football poll at work. Tonights game isn't set in stone yet but She picked the New England Patriots and so far we're doing good. 24 - 10.

So tonight we went out to Gators Dockside with some work friends and watched the game. I'm not a huge football fan but it's interesting and fun to watch a game. Especially when your teams always seems to be winning :p

In other news Mike should be here around Thursday or Friday. Still trying to figure out what to do while he's here.

Not sure what else to report. Court has her work baby shower on the 13th. Might be able to get more of what we need from that.. we're almost stocked up :d

Well thanks for reading (:
