Slept for about 10 hours last night, which may explain why I'm so much less tired today. :) I did wake up for an hour around 9pm to have dinner - Giffy was there, but I'm afraid my brain never got out of the "just wake up enough to avoid stabbing yourself or others with cutlery" mode, so I doubt I was the most entertaining dinner companion. Yay to the marvelous Sok for tasty stew - so tasty!

I'm hitting my head against getting MySQL 4 replication to work on a couple of Debian boxes. If that means nothing to you, then you should consider yourself lucky. I think I'm at the stage I'm going to have to get one of the systems people to give me a hand - this kind of system administration isn't really my forte, unfortunately.
On the plus side, I finally have a whiteboard! This is an essential tool for me, since it's the best place for things-to-do that would otherwise slop out of my brain and disappear. It's only half-full, but I haven't trolled through my mailbox and litter of notes on my desk.

Rang home on a mission of chocolate mercy, since I noticed Sok complaining that there was no chocolate. Of course there's chocolate - you just have to know where to look. :)
Posted by svend at October 29, 2004 4:26 PMA todo list is absolutely essential to today's modern geek. You may be interested in Danny O'Brien's "Tech Secrets of Over-Prolific Alpha Geeks". Cory D's notes are here: http://www.craphound.com/lifehacksetcon04.txt. I have a page on my wiki (therefore accessible from anywhere) called "ToDo", and have it "aliased" in each browser I have, so I just open a new tab (or, if desparate^H^H^H using IE, a new window), and type 'todo' in the Location bar. Lo! My todo list, ready for updating.
