crappy day, crappy day
started the day off by waking up at 6:30ish to go wait in line for a free mini DVD player at the new safeway opening up. originally, we thought of going at 6:30… that got pushed back to 6:45… got there at 6:50ish… line was already crazy long! we felt we were already out of the first 100 (who get free DVD players) but stuck around to see if they’d offer anything else worthwhile to people close by. they ended up annoucing the next 50 would get a voucher to come back at 8pm and pick up any leftover DVD players the first 100 didn’t pick up…
tina and i were #151 and 152. AHH!! oh well 
i doubt any of the first 100 would miss on their chance of getting the DVD player so really we weren’t that close. i grabbed lunch at safeway and heading to work, at least i’d get out of work earlier!
power went out at work a little after 9 this morning. after waiting around for awhile… they started saying we could either go to another one of the buildings (where there was power) or go home, as long as we were productive…
didn’t matter whether i went to the other building or went home ’cause the server i connect to at work is located on the same floor as me so there wouldn’t be any power… i was stuck updating documentation (booo)
i left at around 10:30 since my battery was nearly empty. awesome! at least i got to leave work early and the day started looking better… even if i did have to do crummy documentation at home
power came on back at work around 11 (a little after i left), but servers were down for quite some time later… more updating documentation (boo)
after the servers came back up, another problem came up with the licensing for one of the products i use… grr… ops guy at work said to call him about it, gave him a ring… got a disconnected number message…
ahh, all and all a pretty interesting but crappy (is everything broken?!) day… at least i’m home already
