tfheen Tue, 22 Jun 2004 - Lazy weekend

The weekend was spent being lazy, mostly. Karianne and I started off trying to edit some video on Friday, but most of the old equipment which I had managed to lay my hands on was disassembled, and I didn't manage to assemble it in time. Shame, but we'll give it another try on Wednesday.

Saturday, we slept in for a long time. It was so nice to be able to sleep a bit again. We were to go to a shrimp-eating party Saturday evening, with my father and Vigdis. Gro (an old friend of my father's, and the mother of one of my friends) took us with her to the party. It ended up being a very nice party with lots of food and fun people.

Sunday, we slept a bit more before going back to Oslo again. Once there, we slept even more and ate a bit of food. Slow, slow day, which I found most excellent. As I had borrowed Steinar's camera for about a week, we went to his place and gave it back. I found it quite nice to go for a walk in the evening like that, but I think Karianne got a bit tired, as it is a fair distance to walk.

Today, Monday, it rained dogs and cats, so we both took the subway downtown, I going into the office, while Karianne headed off for IKEA. After work, I got dragged down to the local pub with a few workmates, so we had a few beers there before I had to go to my little sister's for some dinner. Anja dropped me a text message a bit before I left, wondering if I could pick up a corkscrew. It took a while, but I managed, arriving fashionably late (I'm an academic), meeting up with Karianne just outside the door.

Anja had made some great food, and we had a nice time before we had to go back home; Karianne to Bodil's and I to my father's. To cap off the night, we ended up having discussions for a while, probably a bit too late for Vigdis. Nice evening.

tfheen Tue, 22 Jun 2004 - Meetings and registrar work

Friday, I managed to actually get some work done. Anders brought back one of the servers from the server room on Thursday, and the reason for it being broken was one of the coolers having come loose. The cpu was fairly burnt, and after a short while, I gave up getting it to work. Left work early to meet up with Karianne.

Monday, I've been mostly in a board meeting. We discussed for some hours, slowly getting through the list of items we were to process. Due to an oversight, we had to cut the meeting short, so we'll continue on Wednesday. Will be fun, I guess..

The rest of the day, I spent doing registrar stuff, going through the huge pile of mess that is our current set of domains. It'll be good once it's cleaned up, but right now, it's a huge pile of work, just waiting for me to go through it tomorrow.
