It was certainly a day of laundry. A day of going up and down three flights of stairs every 10-20 minutes becuase our washer doesn’t pull cold water on its own — I have to put it in with a hose. It does work, though, and it’s free. The dryer is fantastic, but after around four or five loads in a row it overheats, and won’t run for an hour. But wow, gas dryers are fast!

In other news, today I finished moving non-backup files off of my backup drive. Everything is falling into place. There was a lot of file moving going on, but I’m almost done setting up complete, automatic, daily backups of every home directory on every machine, cluster, etc that I use. That should complete my data-related peace of mind.

Not much else to say. I did some shopping today. I bought more clothes. I got a bit annoyed by the constant up-selling of store-brand credit cards. Fools. They don’t want me as a credit card customer anyway. I always pay my balance in full. Credit card companies refer to people who do that as ‘deadbeats’. Funny, eh?

Stats!

No running, today was another break for my legs. Back on the horse at 05:15 sharp tomorrow. Lots of water. I’ve been doing a lot today, and sweating a bit. I think that’s why. One glass of Turning Leaf Sauvignon Blanc for dinner. I was disappointed, it’s a bit bitter. That’s all folks, time for bed.
