A day at the home office.
I didn’t actually get much accomplished for company #3, but I did build up my laptop so that it would be fully functional. For my last gig, I used a company-supplied desktop (my former desktop). For company #2, I have always used my home desktop. For company #3, I’m using the desktop when I’m at home, and the laptop when I’m on site. I have not had to do much with my laptop ever since I purchased it, so Tuesday at company #3 was my wakeup call. The computer could not do many things because I hadn’t loaded the software.
Since much of the day involved loading things, I monitored the laptop while watching a movie. Good movie… and it was a long movie — 2:45 long — so excellent for this operation.
During one of my longer loads, I got my passport sent out for renewal. I hope it comes back before I leave for New York (and Canada, where I’ll need it).
Last night’s call committee meeting was a riotous affair — productive, loud and fun.
Day 150 mood: I got something accomplished, but it didn’t feel like work. Still, it’s nice to have something to do that fills the day.
