Musician and nerd at large. I'm a Mac and a Linux. My opinions are mine, not my employer's.

I scored a pair of these nearfield monitors in mint condition for half price. A friend with a studio in Portland upgraded to the 8 inch version (these are the KRK Rokit 5.) They sound amazing.

The Almighty Matrix has been confirmed totaled. In better news, I just found out my credit rating kicks copious amounts of ass. :)

Ooh car shopping! Will you post pics? - Mary B: #TeamMonique
But first, my deep condolences for the almighty Matrix. Where ARE my manners? - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Car shopping is done. Pics pending. - teleken

Wow, I just got the news Ray Manzarek (keyboard player for the Doors, for those of you under 30) passed away. As a guy who started taking organ lessons as a little kid in the '70s, he was an icon to me. RIP, Ray, and I still screw up the intro to "Light My Fire" every time I play it.

Running a Mac VM on my Mac feels... Schizoid.

Building a Mac VM. Why? Because I can. :)

20 minutes end-to-end for the build and it's quick! I'm impressed. - teleken

I'm about to run a virtual Ubuntu machine inside my virtual Windows 7 machine on my Mac. If the Internet explodes, please accept my apologies.
HOLY CRAP IT WORKED. - teleken

Ubuntu VM built, VPN configured. Achievement unlocked. Got a sweet discount on VMware Fusion Pro for being a former Parallels customer/victim too. :)

As my glasses got smacked off of my head in the wreck, I've had to wear my contacts the last few days. They don't suck! #yayforvision

Lightning never strikes twice, my skinny German ass. I'm at Tempe St Luke's Hospital - my car was sandwiched between 2 SUVs.

Oh, no! - Ell Bee, See?

Re-did my office/studio for the umpteenth time.

Too bad I can't sit at my desk for more than an hour at a time due to the pain. EVENTUALLY I'll be able to get back to music, I suppose. - teleken

For the life of me, I couldn't figure out why this synth patch was called "Cheap Floyd." Then it hit me...

Still getting used to this whole "go to bed at 8 AM" thing. :)

What time is it now? - Melly #FForever
For me? A few ticks past 11 PM. On the days I work, I come in between 11 AM and 2 PM your time. (6 PM to 9 PM my time) - teleken
So you're at work now? - Melly #FForever
Off tonight, tomorrow night, and Tuesday night - I work a 4 day week now. - teleken

We may work long/weird hours, but at least they feed us. My office has a fully stocked deli. All the food/drinks are comped.

3:45/10:00 to go. There are going to be some long nights ahead until my body adjusts.

Indeed - last night was the 8 hour one; 10 hours tonight and tomorrow night, 12 hours on Saturday. Then, off 'til Wednesday at 9 PM. - teleken
I am, so that helps. :) - teleken

New shift starting week after next - midnights Wed-Sat fixing all the things. Nice pay bump for it too. :)

At least you're used to the crazy shifts! - Ell Bee, See?

At my desk watching training videos. Hours and hours of training videos.

Tinkering with synthesizers - it must be Saturday night.

Working from home on the iMac. This is nice. :)

Have a little Internet radio going, doing laundry while I fix these boxes. Productivity FTW. - teleken

The new gig makes it easy for us - it took me all of a minute to set up VPN on my Mac so I can access my work stuff from home if I want/need to.
teleken
The only thing better than overtime is overtime at home. Got approval from my new boss to VPN in on Saturday and grab some time and a half. Figure I'll roll out of bed, grab some coffee and wander to my office.

Yep - this is fun. :)

I think I need one of these...
we should start a band. - Big Joe Silenced
it's funny to me that with this giant pile of guitars, everything I've done in the last couple of months has been synth driven. - teleken
now to sneak the guitars back in! - Big Joe Silenced

The new shift will be interesting - I don't know the hours yet, but it'll be 4 days a week - one 12, two 11s and a 9, either in that order or reversed.
from
That's one of the potentials - I'll know sometime before week after next. - teleken

En route - first day at the new gig. No, Melly, I'm not wearing the boots today.

This company is run VERY much like a Silicon Valley company. Loving the culture thus far. - teleken
