Used the convection part of the new microwave. It did ok, but it never
got past ‘preheating’. I guess it takes a really long time to
preheat. I put my food in while it was preheating and it cooked
it nicely.

In other news Twyla came in from the yard a bit ago holding her leg
up. Looked at it and didn’t see anything at first glance, but
then looked again and saw a cut. About 1-1.5″ long on the back
of her leg. It might be that it could use some stitches, but at
this time of night it would be a wicked expensive emergency vet
place, and I think she will be ok without. It’s not bleeding, so
hopefully some ointment on it and it will be ok.

Exciting morning here: UPS rang the doorbell at 7:30am and woke me up
(my new keyboard that I ordered yesterday afternoon came in
already… they are fast), then I was in the shower around 8:15
and the power went out. The bathroom is pretty dark with no
lights and pretty steamy with no fan. Power was out until about
9:45, which was just long enough for most of my UPS’es to die.

Went up to blug
tonight. It was a ok meeting. The folks giving the talk seemed
nice enough and didn’t push their consulting business too
much. Started playing with the new software suspend during the
meeting. I probably did about 30 reboots. After tweaking the
wireless a bit I managed to get it to where it will suspend and
resume fine in single user mode, but once you run X all bets are
off. After getting home tweaked with it some more and updated X
and the dri radeon driver and the touchpad driver. Got it
further along, but it still croaks. Finally sent in a bug report
to the software suspend list. Hopefully they can figure
something out with it.

In other news I stupidly volunteered to help the greyhound group by
manning a concessions stand at the broncos game this Sunday. It
looks like it’s going to be a big pain. They want you there for
a long dammed time, all kinds of rules to memorize. Oh well,
it’s for the dogs.

Dave the dog just had a near death experience. He was all excited and
jumping around because we were going to go on a walk, and he
jumped on my laptop keyboard. This made me think about killing
him. 🙂 I refrained however. Mostly the keyboard still works,
but the s and q keys are really sticky and don’t feel
right. Ordered a new laptop keyboard from HP, which was a
chore. Their parts site doesn’t show any parts for my laptop, I
had to know it was called something else in their db. 🙁

Despite getting to go out to the vet (nail trimming) and the petsmart
(treat buying) Dave is a hyper pup again today. He really needs
lots more exercise than the other two dogs. I guess he is only 2
years old, so has a lot of puppy in him, but greyhounds are
usually just mellow. I should ask for a loaner coat for him. He
really needs walks, but gets cold super easy. Hope we can find
him a nice active family.
