3 Mar 2000 Erbo   » (Journeyer)

(Erbo looks up at the top of the page) Cool! I've made Journeyer! Thanks, nwv, I am now well satisfied in the "ranking" department :-). Also, I'd like to give a shout out to DizzyD, who enjoys reading these diary entries (search for "[03:18:53]" in the text of that page to find his comment).

It's going to be "meeting day" today. First there's a #jabber channel meeting as soon as Jer puts together his list of issues, then, at 3:30, there's a Webb company meeting down in LoDo, meaning I have to leave something like 30 minutes in advance. I used to really hate meetings, though I may be mellowing out as I get older.

Today's payday, too, so I'll need to stop off at Wells Fargo along the way to deposit my check. (I don't believe in direct deposit. I don't even use Quicken or some program like that, though I have been peeking at GnuCash's feature set recently. I still use a TI-74 calculator to balance my checkbook, although, admittedly, using a BASIC-programmable scientific calculator/pocket computer with 16K of RAM is kind of "overkill" for that job. The closest I get to computerized money management is using Gnumeric spreadsheets to plan the budget and keep track of how much my options are worth.)

On my way back to my car from the meeting, I'll probably stop off at The Tattered Cover for some new reading material, and the Virgin Megastore in the Denver Pavilions to get Pamela that new Santana CD, and maybe something else for myself. (More MP3 raw material!)

Oh, I was thinking, I should include a boilerplate disKlaimer for this diary information:

Opinions expressed in these diary entries are solely those of Eric J. Bowersox aka "Erbo", and, unless otherwise noted, are not to be construed as being the official opinions of Webb Interactive Services Inc., Jabber Inc., the Jabber Project, Pamela Boulais, or any other entity. (Especially not Pamela. :-) ) If you use any information I give here for anything critical, you do so at your own risk. If your life revolves around everything I say here...you're insane.
