Buffing It Out
The weekend was full, that’s for sure. Still trying to catch back up, in fact, which explains the cobwebs on the site. Friday night I was at work until one in the morning upgrading the servers for www.unc.edu and blackboard.unc.edu. For various reasons, none of the upgrades took, so I spent most of Saturday returning to square one.
Afterwards, we drove three hours to the inlaws, for Mother’s Day in the case of the Sainted Wife, and because the Father-in-law possesses a great deal of quality Scotch in the case of me, and me needed that by then, though the Scotch did nothing for me when it came to responding to two early morning emergency pages that night.
Thankfully, Sunday was mostly uneventful, at least until the Father-in-law, hereafter referred to as “Radar,” backed into the minivan on his way to the grocery store. Fortunately, he’s also our insurance agent. Should’ve seen the look on his face when I asked if this was going to increase our rates.
