I’ve got a horrible flew today. Running nose, couphing, teary eyes, temperature, headache and every other syndrom of the cold. Rather rare experience, and not the pleasant one too.
Year: 2003
Counter Strike and wine
Today I’ve found a “Half-Life Platinum Edition” box getting dusted on one of the bookcase shelves. That pushed me to try Counter Strike over wine. I’ve got CVS wine configured and compiled in almost no time. Counter Strike even got itself installed. Then spent some time downloading all the patches and the maps and whatever. Finally, I got so bored with the damn thing that I put it back on the shelf for a better time and fired up The Ultimate Game Of All Times – Quake III.
First NOC shift
My first NOC shift went just fine apart from all alarms shouting when I’ve tried to leave for coffee. Aparently, noone told the security to change their policy and procedures. Fixed.
Daredevil
Went to see “Daredevil” today. Since I’ve missed the entire part of my childhood called “Comics watching”, I didn’t like the movie much. It was slow and simple. My wife though liked it very much.
Starting up the Network Operation Center
Today I’ve got the news that from the next week, our Network Operation Center (NOC) will be fully operational. Hooray! By the way, my shift is first – night from Sunday to Monday.
