Unless I'm mistaken the 'boys' should be running thru Colorado heading for the Denver area today. Especially once they leave Nebraska the scenery starts to get better with the Rockies in the distance. Gotta do that trip again but while taking my time. Every time I've been that way it has been with a deadline. Be nice to do it as a tourist.

There's a new kid on the Farm, first here in what, 3 years?

Mail merge is running again, this time over the weekend, maybe it will succeed this time.

Tired. Just can't do it on 5 hours sleep. In the middle of the 'big' migration, moving the email to a new server and new domain. Canceled it the first time when we found out that the scripts that worked on W2K & O2K won't work on WXP and O2K3. We have to touch every PC, whether remotely or in person. Gas is back down to $2.61/gal.

And it has now been a long while.

Been a bit under the weather lately. Came in to work tonight because we are supposed to be doing an email domain migration: Moving our email from the old server on the old domain to a new server on the new domain. But the vendor that we are working with still isn't ready 2 hours after we were supposed to begin. To be expected on a project like this, but I'd rather be in bed. Oh well, it gives me an excuse to work on this.

Gas prices. What a yo-yo. The price of gas dropped to 2.65 by the end of April and stayed down for a couple of weeks, then climbed up to 2.87 for the Mothers Day weekend and is down to 2.71 tonight. I don't know what to expect anymore. I see Oil is below $70 right now even though prospects are high that Venezuela may cut exports and Ecuador has canceled a contract agreement and who knows what will happen with Iran?

Wish I had brought some munchies tonight, but I didn't expect this. I have actually caught up on most of my email for the first time in maybe 6 months.
