Day 78 of 362


Another day with no home machine... That's okay, though. Tonight, the machine goes a supremely-competent TechGopher, and all will be well. As it goes, however, I might buy a new machine anyway... Still debating that one.

As for the store, Warmachine in the morning/afternoon and World of Darkness in the evening. the WoD game means an early night for me, which is when the infected machine is being transported to one of the best computer techs I know.

Peace... GopherDave

Day 77 of 362


Alright, it's confirmed. The home computer has a virus that I cannot remove. The call will be going out to the tech-oriented Gophers.

Beyond that, not a lot is going on. With the home machine effectively down, my general productivity has slowed. I think when this is all over, I will owe y'all about half a dozen (or more) Monday Music entries. I will catch up, though. Promise...

As a side note, I'm wearing contact lenses for the first time in almost two years. It's going pretty well, except that when I first put them in, the left one was sliding around all funny every time I blinked. It took me fifteen minutes to realize I had put it in my eye inside out. One "lens flip" later and things were good on the optical front... *sigh*

Day 76 of 362

I'm dressed. The home computer has a virus. I left the camera at home. Pictures either later tonight or sometime tomorrow. Sorry.

Edit: Here we go...




Cleaning floors, then going home to wrench on a computer... or shoot it... not certain which yet...

Day 75 of 362


It's Wednesday, so that means shipment day at 'Gopher. I'll be heading out soon, but am still puzzled as to why our home computer has started acting REALLY slow over the last couple of days. I know my blog is picture heavy, but it used to take less than 30 seconds to load the page. Now, it takes upward of four minutes.

The machine is acting slowly in other areas as well, but not as noticeably as when web browsing. Hmmmm... I'll take tech ideas from any folks out there. My computer expertise pretty much stopped with the Commodore-64.

Day 74 of 362


Today is order day at the store and date day with the wife. Getting a late start, we went directly to date day and had a great lunch at O'Charley's before she dropped me off at the store so she could head to work.

I'm still waiting for distributors to call me back, so I thought I'd get the blogging out of the way. I know I still owe y'all a Monday Music, but that might have to wait a bit this week. I will catch up. I promise.

Beyond that, not much is happening currently... Just waitin' on the phone to ring.

Day 73 of 362


Got a way late start here at Casa Gopher. I should have been out the door much sooner than I am, but the sleep was nice.

Not much is happening today. We have 40K Free Play going on at the store tonight. Beyond that, I get to go home early since Loquacious will be in to play her Space Doodz.

Beyond that, have a happy...

Day 72 of 362


Okay... it's Sunday. Time for weekly financials and other minor business related trivialities. None of them take me all that long to do, they just have to be done.

On the improvement front, the bulk of the office stuff is finished. I still have two big boxes of stuff to sort through and a bunch of stuff to rearrange, but that won't take all that much time. I just have to do it. Given my schedule, easier said than done.

Games today... Deadlands: Hell on Earth and Board Games. Our usual Rogue Trader game got poop-canned for today due to circumstances beyond my knowledge.

Until later... GopherDave
