After a weekend... the week starts.

Okay, so, this weekend, I helped my sister-in-law and brother-in-law with some painting. Good times. I might have to actually do the painting I'm supposed to do at my house now.

Phone is working with facebook. I just poked someone from my phone at work. I remember that bit about Facebook starting something bad... yeah, I think this is it.

I also worked on Paul's old computer. he had a Dell with a Socket 478 Celeron in it. the chip was dead, and the retention bracket for the heatsink was broken. I had some replacement parts, and fixed it. Awesome. I'll see if we can fix his desktop machine sometime before that baby comes. LOL.

My wife didn't get paid last week from her old job... last paycheck... clerical error... whatever... ugh. Good thing I didn't splurge on random crap this week...

I did get the "new" media center assembled and rewired some stuff with the TV to make the installation easier. The case fits in the cabinet, and all I have to do is install the software. I'm going to go with MythTV, probably using the MythDora distro. I got that downloaded, but didn't get around to trying it. I wanted to sleep last night, so maybe tonight... after the kids go to bed.
