Sunday night – old data

Yikes.. just saw it was nearly 1 AM and I’m still working. didn’t mean to do that..

My day started at 4am when I took Gabe to the airport for his trip to Portland. He’s out there visiting Lewis and Clark college..  Sounds like he’s enjoying his visit so far…we’ve enjoyed his txts from out there.. including seeing a huge line at Voodoo doughnuts. a PDX must see..

I  got home and caught a few more hours of sleep. I had most of the day to myself which was wonderful .

I puttered around the house. Finished a few long overdue electronics projects. took a  great run out in the woods with the dogs.. and basically chilled out..

 

hmmm.. not much else to report.. other than I did soem data clean up today at work.. It turns out we were stll beig charged for data I had sitting around since the 1990’s.. or maybe even before. I no longer even ne how to long on to the machines where the data lived..

 

for about 3 seconds i contemplated finding the arcane spell that would reinstate my passowrds and let me rifle through the gigabytes of gunk from another millennia.. but then… i relized.. that it was like an attic..

and things are never supposed to come out of attics.. just go in.. so I did the data equivalent of lighting a match and tossed it in .. and deleted all that old stuff..

 

is it ‘what I don’t know… can’t hurt me ? ‘.. no.. it’s not like that.. it’s more  like if I don’t know it.. it can’t exist.. ?  or something like that..

reminds me of one of my favorite billy collins poems.. I’ve used it here many times.. but here it is again

 

nite all, nite sam
