So, sticking to the salad diet. Hopefully it will show some results this weekend. Salad for lunch, meat for dinner. Need to get in shape for motorbiking season 
Surfing for a new car also, Audi A5 Sportback seems nice and big, also an A3 Sport Quattro would work.
First day of work this year. Began as every other week. Had chicken,rice and curry for lunch and some meat and onion for dinner. And yeah, a snadwich for breakfast. Will not have that tomorrow. Also started to spin the wheel of change today. Will make some happy faces and some sad ones. Can’t please everyone tough.
Weigh in today which was not a fun thing. Vegetables will be my friend for a couple of weeks. Going shopping today. Fish,meat and vegetables I assume.
So, new year means new disappointments. New year also means new stuff to do. Which in my world is loosing bit of fat. Weigh in will be tomorrow morning.
There is nothing here to see. Finally got my 100Mbps internet connection and it rokks I just need to get me a decent router. Those Alix2 boards that PC Engines make seems to be a good solution. Will only do 96mbps with OpenBSD but still, better than 3Mbps Adsl. Also it runs VPN and IPv6 wich is a good thing. You should upgrade to IPv6 now, it’s better. Trust me, I am a professional! Also I have been testing the next generation Firefox, got some nice features.
Slowly the IKEA stuff is coming in place also. Just need a monkey wrench now to tighten the last bolts on my dinner table. Just the bed and sofa issues left now. The problem is the transportation now since homedelivery is like ‘yeah we can deliver, just be home the whole day’. Got to figure that one out…
So,I entered the modern ages and configured this blog to get stuff from my phone. Nice 
First couple of weeks at my first assignment done. Seems to be a lot of administration to learn, the eigth layer of the seven layer OSI model. Well, I will get there. The good thing is that my backup colleague is leaving for USA tomorrow, yay for me. But I guess it will be ok anyway, somehow. So life in the Borg Collective is pretty nice, but I got the keys to my ‘own’ flat. At least I will be living there all by my self. Just need to find some furnitures somehow. At least a bed and a sofa. A chair and a desk would be nice, and maybe a TV. I might just bring my 23″ inch screen instead. Maybe I should get that 27″ iMac for TV 
Seems that modern monitors has generally really crap resolution, they are still the same as I had 10 years ago. What ever happened to development?
It’s been a while now. Well, stuff has happened. Started my new work last week, which seems interesting. Also I have been studying for the CCSA exam on Tuesday. Checkpoint got some strange answers like the purpose of hide-nat, ‘Hide behind an imaginary IP’. I would really like som imaginary IP’s, I guess it’s those from CSI.
Managed to attend two weddings and a couple of birthday parties in August so now I think that my wedding quota is filled for this year. Two swedish and one vietnamese wedding seems to be enough. And thanks to Olivia I got a flat decently close to work, thank you
I am also beginning to hate the software raid in Linux. Seems to be endless obscure problems like just dropping one of the disks randomly in a raid-5 set. This happened when I upgraded my filserver to Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. The only good outcome of that is that my laptop, running Windows 7, can talk to it over IPv6. But it smashed the raid-5, made my Popcorn hour not be able to use my old SMB mount and of course it took some fiddeling with VMWare to get it running. Feels more and more like Solaris is a good solution.
Today I got around to try to sell some shirts att spreadshirt.se. More exactly http://facehugger.spreadshirt.se. Just got two designs so far, more will come, trust me. They will all have some attitude At least that is the goal. Facehugger.net is my pet design project, haven’t happened much there so far, probably since I actually don’t have a decent computer to work on. Also I went to a trackday with some friends last week, didn’t ride anything though. Should have taken his KTM RC8 for a spin but he managed to bend both brake disks while trying to change front tyre. But now I really need to get me a streetbike
Now the summer is here for real. It’s almost like Asia back home now, not that damp though. Pretty much like Hoi An. Hue was much drier and Kuala Lumpur was very damp. Almost got 34 degrees today and I am waiting for some thunder and rain. Got around to cut the grass today and realized that the guy at Electrolux that has designed my lawn mover has probably never owned a house. And is probably about 150cm tall. I got a collector to gather all the leftover grass which is so badly designed that you cant back up your lawn mover without holding the collector or else it will end up in the cutting knives. Way to go! And I guess everyone that has a Briggs&Stratton knows how ‘reliable’ something constructed in the UK is. Should get me a Honda based one instead. It will probably last forever. At least I got around to graphing the disk temperatures in my file server using smartctl. I got snmpd run the following script, and yes it is ugly as hell since it does not tell you the name of the disk. Doesn’t really matter for me, since I already know in the cacti snmp template.
#!/bin/sh
for i in `ls /dev/sd[a-e] `
do
smartctl --all $i |grep Temp | cut -c88-90|tail -1
done
