• Sorry for the late blogging, but things in the real world got a little out of control. For the record, I FREAKING HATE SETTING UP 802.11g WIRELESS NETWORKS.

  
  

  There, I said it and I'm proud.

  
  

  I got my wife's new computer built (actually, it was more of an excuse to upgrade my process to a hyper-threaded 3.06 P4), and now we're all hooked up here at the house. She used to have a Mac, but it kept crashing so we're ditching it, in favor of her new PC. I've been on the phone just about every night to the fine folks at D-Link tech support. Last night was the end all of end alls .... I'm on hold for like 1.5 hours ... he finally gets on the line and we go through the whole process of setting up the IP configurations and he goes, "Okay, this is the very last step. What I need you to do is" .... click. The battery on the cordless phone died.

  
  

  I would have cried if it hadn't been so perfect in a Murphy's Law kinda way. I had a good laugh and was able to figure out the last step on my own. So it's all good. If anyone out there is a wiz at setting up WEP encryption with the new D-Link router, give me a shout, will you?

  
  

  This week has been filled with meetings and paperwork ... not much time for blogging. So with that, I'm off to bed. Goodnight, all!
