It's always rough to come back from a three day weekend and wade right back in. I don't think I could put it any better than @Gonzohacker so a solid ass slap to him on that one.

Along with digging back into work, I'm going to try to get myself more engaged in the blog again. After all, it's me that wants to be able to reflect on my diary into insanity.

For me, the holiday weekend was about time to reflect; on shit that I hadn't completed yet. The official docket (per the wife) was:

• Operation: Buffalo Wildwings

  • Purchased:

    • 1x Cheetah APLCMB Ceiling Mount 32-63" (black)
    • 1x ViewHD VHD-PRO4X2i

  • Installed into the ceiling:

    • During 1
    • After 1
    • After 2
    • After 3

• Pokemon Hunting

  • One stop was Lake Park
  • I put on 160km driving these fools around this weekend

• Workstation monitor upgrade

  • New nVidia chip install
  • Kernel reconfig
  • gentoo package maintenance
  • Sanity checks post-op
    • Video & audio inputs?
    • Video & audio outputs?
    • Appropriate screen orientation?
  • Purchased:
    • 1x ECGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti
    • 1x EZM Deluxe Triple Monitor Mount Desk Stamp
    • 3x ASUS VS248H-P 24-Inch Monitor (@ $225 total)
  • Pictures
    • Before 1 - Op-checking all the devices with the new video card & cabling
    • After 1 - All setup, beer in-hand, time to celebrate. How many sysadmin maintenance cycles are one-shot-one-kill?

For those of you that chose to scroll down to this extent, here's the full album.
