gain from pain
The objective I was trying to achieve during my recent tragic loss of data has been achieved, meaning that working from home just got a whole lot easier. (Tip: if you're using remote desktop over a VPN, you need to join a domain if you want it to work. This may be true only of clients running Vista.) As for the data loss itself, Nibs says she has "made it right". I still feel bad about it, though.
Second iPod reload in as many months of about 20 GB. It got nice and warm. I wonder how much data you can pump into one before it bursts into flames.
Needed: sleep, sewing time, and socializing. Three S's.
Still not going to Burning Man this year. No half-naked fairy coated in alkaline dust gave me a ticket, ride, and time. Le sigh. I guess I'll have to be my own fairy next year.

Burning Man 2008
Don't feel bad about not going to Burning Man this year. It was the worst weather in 6 years. 2 all day white outs (yep from about 10 am to 10 pm Monday and Sunday). Then intermittent wind storms the rest of the week. It was also a bit on the humid side, and the dunes had a lot of the bike riders walking.... There was also rain and more white-outs after the temple burned. Tear down for our camp did not happen until Monday around 8 am.
On the up side... all the rest was the same, if you could find it in the wind storms... :-)
