So at work they’re distributing a new baseline for all the computers. My machine got it about 2 weeks ago. The updates were pretty simple, upgrade from Office 2003 to 2007, IE 6 to 8, Security Updates etc etc. Last week at some point my computer died, it would start up and as soon as the windows loading screen would appear I would get a BSOD and the computer would reboot. That was on a tuesday. Wednesday, Desktop Support comes and picks my computer up to try and recover the machine. I don’t have a computer for the rest of the week.
Over the weekend I didn’t do much, played Eve on Friday and Saturday morning, then ran some errands and in the afternoon drove down to Nashville to see a show. The show was alright, the venue could have been better, but the bands made up for the fact that there was no drinking, smoking, moshing, crowd surfing, cursing or any other fun activities that one usually partakes in while at a show. Rcktwn is the fail. On sunday we drive back and once i get home I play some more Eve 😛
On the topic of Eve, i figure i’ll give an update of the goings on of Krandor delMarniol. Krandor’s left Legion of Black Mesa because many of the members have left or stopped playing. Krandor has found a new home with some old friends in UKM (United Kingdom Mayhem) who have many more active players than Legion of Black Mesa did. So far things are pretty good, besides the whole Circle-of-Two getting reset by Northern Coalition thing. While things are pretty turbulent up there UKM has decided to pull it’s industrial assets out of 0.0 and try to find a good empire home for them. After that is done, I think i’ll take Krandor back out to 0.0 to help in the effort to keep our home constellation.
OK, back to real life. This week starts and i still don’t have a computer. I don’t get it back until Wednesday (a whole week later). So I took some half-days and went home early, did laundry, ran some errands, etc.
Now it’s Thursday and I have my computer back up and running (though still not completely updated). It’s good to be able to get back to work 😛
That must have been weird to not have your computer at work. What did you do during the time? At my company, we’re defenseless without our computers and systems.
You in Metropolis Kran? I am moving Shy and Klyde over to Morus Mihi (Shiva corp) in October, but before I go, if UKM needs an extra miner and hauler, let me know!
Mark/Shy
Yeah, atm, I’m in Metro. Don’t know when i’m heading back out to Branch
🙁 Don’t join MM! I’ll have to pew you if you do :-\
I had my laptop with me, so i was able to surf the internet and play Eve (on the DL :P)
but, yeah, without my computer i was pretty much dead in the water.
